After one year of fat trasfer to the buttocks , it sounds you have fat necrosis (THE HARD LUMPS). Can be diagnosed with x-ray, or ct scan. If that is the case then need removal of the fat necrosis . may need to reinject fat after total healing if there is any asymmetry or indentation as a result of removing the fat necrosis.

I recommend daily or even twice daily massage to the hard areas of your buttocks. With massage, the hard areas should soften up in time. I would guess that they are caused by scar tissue forming in those areas after fat transfer. For better and more lasting results for buttock enlargement, I would recommend buttock implants rather than fat transfer.
