Can this indent on my buttock be fixed with fat transfer? (Photo)

fat transfer can help this, but cellulite/indents often need needle subcision/cellfina, sculptra and/or fillers even after the fat transfer.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello and thank you for your question.  The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  Fat grafting can fill in that area.   Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

To answer your question, yes, this can be corrected with fat transfer or filler to the area. The recovery time for something like this is very minor. You may experience minor swelling or bruising but it should not keep you from your regular activities. Also, cellfina is a procedure that can be done to cut the fibers pulling in that skin causing this indentation.
