I am a transgender woman. My body is quite slim. I know there is no FDA approved permanent injectable for butt or hips. I would like to have my hips and butt enhanced though. Not crazy but a natural look and proportionate too. How many fat transfers will I need to have in order to achieve the desired results I want? Would this take up to a total of 5 years? Would I have to constatly gain weight after each fat transfer to gain more fat to be transferred?

Answer: Possible BBL Dear amayamimi, it looks like you have a lot of questions. It is really hard to give you proper answer without any photos. I would recommend you to visit a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in-person examination and consultation. That is the only way you will get correct information. BBL can be used to enhance buttocks, but it requires that you have excess of fat somewhere else (abdomen, back, thighs, etc.). Again, you might be a candidate for a BBL but I can't tell without any photo or examination. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am.

Answer: Hips and Butt enhancement Fat is the #1 choice for adding volume to hips and butt. There are a few products coming out for adding small amounts of volume (some products that act like fat transfer), but these are only very small volumes and are quite expensive. For those who are very slender and don't have enough fat, sometimes buttock implants are an option, but they require some additional recovery compared to fat transfer.
