Do I need flat butt surgery? (photos)

Question

Im 29 i have scoliosis and im not sure if that plays a roll in any of this but i have a flatt butt even the arch right before ur butt that normal ppl have is completely flat as well. Im super insecure about it and its difficult to find clothes especially tight dresses because none of it looks good. Are there exercises that can help with this or a way to make what you eat target the butt area or is surgery and/or injections the only way to get a normal looking butt??

Like any booming fad or fashion, there are always scammers looking to get a peice of the action and make quick/easy profits. Well as the saying goes, "anything too good to be true, usually is (not true)". Unfortunately the ripe new world of buttock augmentaion has become the next victim with a bunch of nonsense magical creams, potions, lotions, pills, and now suction devices...NONE OF WHICH WORK AND/OR ARE NOT FRAUGHT WITH SERIOUS SIDE-EFFECTS/COMPLICATIONS OR A SHORT-LIVED TEMPORARY OUTCOME . It is not yet possible to take a substance that will only and exclusively makes your derrière grow. Other than being genetically blessed in the buttock and/or performing consistent rigorous exercise, there is no "natural" and/or safe permanent way to grow the buttock other than surgery. The only relatively safe, reliable, and permanent option is with buttock implants. Glad to be of help

Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from a BBL. Fat can be taken from many different areas (abdomen, sides, back, bra rolls, thighs, arms, etc) depending upon the areas of excess and what your goals may be. Most patients get an immense benefit with maximal liposuction of the abdomen, sides, and back to obtain the smallest waist possible and then maximal fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. The goal is to transfer fat from areas where you find it displeasing to areas in which you would like more volume. I recommend you to schedule an email, Skype or in-person consultation with a board certified  surgeon for proper evaluation.

You are skinny, but if you have enough fat on your stomach, and flanks, you can get a little volume with fat transfer.  For you a better option might be buttock implants, since you do not have enough fat.  If you gain some weight, which sometimes is not recommended, then you can have enough fat to make a difference.

Dear Considerate1687,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
