Hip enlargement

Hip enlargement is a cosmetic procedure to enhance the size, shape, or contour of the hips to achieve a fuller and more proportionate body appearance. It can be surgical or non-surgical.

Types of Hip Enlargement:

1. Surgical Methods:

   • Hip Implants: Silicone or other biocompatible implants are placed over the hip bones to increase width and projection.

   • Fat Grafting (Brazilian Butt Lift / Hip Fat Transfer): Fat is liposuctioned from other areas (abdomen, thighs) and injected into the hips for a natural contour.

2. Non-Surgical Methods:

   • Dermal fillers (temporary enhancement using injectable substances)

   • Exercise & muscle toning (gluteal and hip-targeted workouts) – natural enhancement, non-surgical

Indications:

• Desire for wider or more shapely hips

• Body contouring after weight loss

• Cosmetic enhancement to improve proportion or balance

Benefits:

• Improved body contour and symmetry

• Enhanced aesthetic appearance

• Boost in self-confidence

Risks / Complications:

• Infection

• Swelling or bruising

• Pain or discomfort

• Asymmetry or uneven results

• Rarely, implant displacement or fat necrosis (in fat grafting)

Aftercare:

• Avoid sitting or pressure on hips for a few weeks (especially after implants)

• Follow surgeon’s activity and exercise restrictions

• Maintain healthy lifestyle to preserve results

• Attend follow-up appointments for healing assessment
