How is the best way to fix this problem of having short infragluteal on the left side and longer on the right side?

Question

Hello, What is my best option to go about fixing this issue? The left is dramatically and visibly shorter than the right. How to fix this issue? Thanks

Treatment for unevenness of the infragluteal crease much depends upon the reason for the asymmetry, whether it be from a genetic, traumatic, or aging process.   If the one buttock cheek is more constricted and thus smaller than the other side then expansion of that side with an implant or series of implants would likely be the best option.  If the buttock cheeks are otherwise about the same size then some form of a lower buttock tuck (aka banana-roll plasty) +/- buttock lift may be the best option.  One thing that usually should be avoided is trying to utilize liposuction for this particular problem as it usually makes things worse and gives you multiple infragluteal creases. Glad to be of help.

Dear Jmnkh86,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. In a lot of cases, fat transfer provides good improvement in symmetry. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
