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: Shaping the butt with Sculptra, fat transfer, butt implants--See an expert This is difficult to answer without pictures. Sculptra can be used to enhance the butt. It may take a series of treatments, but can be combined with fat transfer and/or a butt implant to achieve desired results. With fat transfer, harvesting is important for successful fat transfer. I use gentle water-assisted harvesting to get the most viable fat to transfer. I combine with prp and sculptra to improve results. Results take 3-6 months. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a body shaping expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Hip and butt enhancement Dear Amayamimi, The fat transfer will be the answer to your problem. In slim patients, it is hard to get enough fat for injection. Most of them have to gain weight to have enough fat. The amount of fat to be injected depends on how you want your hip to look. I would recommend you to visit a board-certified plastic surgeon to see how much fat you need so we can set up a goal for your weight gain. How long it will take to have enough fat is up to where the fat goes when you increase your weight. Fat accumulation can be either intraabdominal, under the skin, or both. Liposuction removes fat only under the skin. It will be ideal if all your fat goes under the skin, getting more fat for injection.

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.
