Hip Aesthetics
What is Hip Aesthetic Surgery? How is it Done? What are the Costs? Things to Know About Hip Aesthetic Surgery
The hip area often accumulates excess fat and may exhibit low positioning or surface irregularities. One of the most effective treatments for excess fat accumulation is tumescent liposuction.
In cases of hip positioning issues or surface irregularities, fat injections or hip implants may be considered.
Fat Injection to the Hip Area
Fat injection is a popular method for shaping the hips through filler procedures in hip aesthetic surgery. Since it uses the patient's own fat, there are no allergies or similar side effects. Results can become more permanent if the procedure is repeated every 3-6 months, as desired.
To enhance hip fullness, fat injections are commonly administered to the upper hips. On average, about 15-20% of the injected fat can remain permanent. If desired, liposuction can also be added to the lower hips simultaneously to create a lifting effect.
Fat injection procedures for hip augmentation can be performed under sedation and local anesthesia, making them relatively straightforward operations for the patient.
While approximately 15-20% of the injected fat tends to remain permanent, this percentage may vary. Additional fat injections in the future can further improve results.
During fat injection procedures, a slightly larger amount of fat than necessary is typically harvested and stored under appropriate cold conditions. This allows for supplementary fat injections once or twice in the following months.
Silicone Hip Prosthesis (Gluteal Implant)
Hip aesthetic surgery offers fat injection as an option to enhance hip fullness. However, in cases where fat tissue is insufficient, hip implants may be considered. Hospital stay may range from 1-2 nights, and gradual return to normal activities is possible within 1-2 weeks. With post-operative care under a doctor's supervision, quick recovery and favorable outcomes are achievable.
