Hip enhancement is a body contouring procedure that creates fuller, more rounded hip contours using fat transfer or implants. The procedure addresses narrow hips or hip dips, creating a more curved, hourglass silhouette. Most commonly performed using fat grafting, hip enhancement harvests fat from areas like your abdomen or thighs through liposuction, then strategically injects it into your hips to add volume and create smoother, more feminine curves.
Not everyone is an ideal candidate for hip enhancement surgery. Understanding whether you're a good fit helps ensure your safety and satisfaction with the results.
You desire fuller, more rounded hip contours or want to fill indentations (hip dips) between your waist and thighs.
For fat transfer, you need adequate fat in areas like abdomen, flanks, or thighs for harvesting.
You should be in good physical condition without underlying medical issues that could complicate surgery.
Being within 10-15 lbs of your goal weight is important. Significant weight fluctuations can affect your results.
Understanding what hip enhancement can and cannot achieve is crucial for satisfaction.
Smoking impairs healing and compromises fat survival after transfer.
Hip enhancement is body contouring, not weight loss.
For fat transfer hip enhancement, you need quality donor fat from other body areas.
You must avoid sleeping directly on your sides for 2-3 weeks post-operatively.
Lack of sufficient donor fat may make fat transfer hip enhancement challenging. Hip implants might be considered instead.
Patients with a BMI over 35 may need to lose weight first for safety and optimal results.
Uncontrolled diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, or blood clotting disorders increase surgical risks.
If you're unwilling to quit smoking for at least 2-4 weeks before and after surgery, hip enhancement isn't safe for you.
If you expect hip enhancement to dramatically transform your entire body or create extreme proportions, you'll be disappointed.

Start my matchHip enhancement adds volume to your hips, creating dramatic curves and a more defined waist-to-hip ratio. Your silhouette becomes more proportionate with enhanced feminine contours that balance your upper and lower body.
Hip enhancement smooths the indentations between your waist and thighs (hip dips), creating continuous, flowing curves. The procedure eliminates the "violin" shape some people naturally have, resulting in rounder, fuller hip contours.
When performed using your own fat, results look and feel completely natural. The transferred fat moves naturally with your body, creating soft, authentic curves rather than the firmer feel of implants.
You're removing unwanted fat from problem areas like your abdomen or thighs while enhancing your hips. This creates better overall body proportions with a slimmer waist and fuller hips.
Fat that survives the transfer process (typically 60-80%) is permanent. With stable weight maintenance, your enhanced hip curves last for many years. The fat cells that successfully establish blood supply remain long-term.
After hip enhancement, jeans, skirts, and dresses fit better with more balanced proportions. You fill out clothing more evenly without the gaps or irregular fit that narrow hips or hip dips can create.
Many patients report feeling more feminine and confident in fitted clothing, swimwear, and intimate situations. Enhanced curves often translate to improved body image and self-esteem.
Hip enhancement pairs well with BBL, tummy tuck, or Lipo 360 for comprehensive body contouring and dramatic hourglass transformation in one surgery.
Incisions for liposuction and fat injection are tiny, typically just a few millimeters, and fade significantly over time to barely noticeable marks.
The most challenging period. You'll experience swelling, bruising, and soreness in both donor areas and your hips. Pain is manageable with prescribed medication. You must avoid sleeping on your sides and wear compression garments. Most patients take 5-7 days off work. Light walking is encouraged.
Swelling decreases and you'll feel more mobile. Continue wearing compression garments as directed. You can return to desk work but should avoid strenuous activity. Don't be discouraged if results don't look dramatic yet—swelling masks your true contours.
Many patients return to normal activities and resume light exercise like walking. You can gradually transition to side sleeping with caution. Swelling continues to decrease and your hip curves become more visible as transferred fat establishes blood supply.
Most restrictions are lifted. You can resume more intense exercise, including cardio and strength training. Avoid heavy impact on your hips initially. Your new hip contours are becoming more defined and natural-looking.
Approximately 60-80% of transferred fat has established permanent survival. Significant swelling has resolved. Your hip curves appear fuller and more defined. You can fully appreciate the improvement in your body proportions and hourglass shape.
Final results are visible. All swelling has resolved and the surviving fat is now permanent. Your incision scars have faded to nearly invisible marks. The enhanced hip curves you see now are your long-term result with proper weight maintenance.
Selecting the right surgeon is the most important decision in your hip enhancement journey.
Your surgeon must be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). Board certification means your surgeon completed rigorous training, passed comprehensive exams, and maintains high ethical standards.
Check the ABPS website directly or use the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) "Find a Surgeon" tool.
Some physicians claim to be "board certified" but are certified in unrelated specialties that don't require plastic surgery residency training.
Board certification is your baseline, but hip enhancement specialization takes your safety and results to the next level.
A surgeon performing 30+ fat transfer procedures annually (including hip enhancement, BBL, and body contouring) has the experience necessary for optimal fat survival and natural-looking curves.
Has your surgeon attended advanced courses in fat grafting techniques? Do they understand proper fat harvesting, processing, and injection methods to maximize fat survival?
A quality surgeon is transparent about their outcomes. Experienced hip enhancement surgeons have significantly lower complication rates and understand how to achieve symmetrical, natural results.
Look for patients with similar body types and hip shapes to yours. Pay attention to symmetry, natural appearance, and overall body proportions. Quality surgeons have extensive galleries showing diverse patient results.
Real patient experiences provide insight into the surgeon's bedside manner, staff professionalism, post-operative care, and overall patient satisfaction with body contouring results.
