This technique uses one’s own fat (usually from belly and back) to enlarge the buttock and hips to create a pleasant hourglass shape appearance to the hip and waist. Following extensive liposuction, the fat in the less desired area (e.g belly and flanks) is transferred to an area where enlargement or enhancement is needed (buttock/hips). Alternatively this procedure can be combined with placement of an implant between the muscle and fat in very thin individuals who do not have adequate fat deposits.
