What is Hip Dips surgery?
Hip dips surgery is an aesthetic procedure aimed at smoothing or filling the natural inward curvature between the hips and thighs, commonly referred to as hip dips. This procedure can be performed using lipotransfer (fat grafting) or synthetic fillers like hyaluronic acid or biopolymers. The goal is to create a more curvaceous and harmonious silhouette by improving the transition from the waist to the hips.
How is a Hip Dips procedure performed?
Hip dips surgery, also known as fat transfer lipoplasty, enhances the shape and contour of the hips through fat transfer or implant placement. The two most common methods include:
Filler with Implants
Silicone or gel implants are inserted through small incisions in the hip area.
Filler with Own Fat (Lipofilling)
Fat is extracted from other areas of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, and injected into the hip areas to fill the indentations.

Who is a good candidate for Hip dips surgery?
The ideal candidate for hip dips surgery should meet the following criteria:
- Good General Health: No underlying medical conditions that could affect the surgery.
- Realistic Expectations: Understanding that the procedure improves the shape of the hips, but does not entirely eliminate the indentations.
- Suitable Body Type:
- No Excess Fat: Lipofilling is not ideal for individuals with excess fat in other areas.
- Volume in the Glutes: Having good volume in the glutes aids in achieving a more harmonious result.
- Personal Motivation: The decision should be made for personal satisfaction, not due to social pressure or beauty standards.
- Appropriate Age: It’s recommended that candidates be of legal age and have fully developed physical features.
Preoperative tests for Hip dips
Before the procedure, a series of tests are conducted to ensure suitability for surgery. Key assessments include:
Medical history exam: The surgeon will review your medical history, current medications, and their impact on anesthesia and recovery.
Postoperative care for Hip dips
Proper recovery after hip dips surgery, whether with implants or lipofilling, involves the following steps (in addition to the surgeon's specific instructions at EGOS):
- Wear a Compression Garment: Helps reduce swelling and supports the area.
- Avoid Sitting Directly: For the first few weeks, use a special pillow as recommended by your surgeon.
- Care for Incisions: Keep the area clean and apply suggested products to promote healing.
- Pain Management: Take prescribed painkillers to alleviate discomfort.
- Avoid Intense Physical Activity: Rest initially and gradually resume activity.
- Healthy Diet: Maintain a balanced diet and stay hydrated to support recovery.
- Follow-up Appointments: Essential for monitoring progress and addressing any concerns.

- Allergic reactions: Although rare, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to the filler material used (in cases involving dermal fillers).
- Material migration: In treatments involving fillers, there is a possibility that the material may shift from its original position, affecting the final results.
- Pain or discomfort: Mild discomfort is normal during the recovery process and typically decreases over time.
- Scarring: If a surgical approach is used, minimal scarring may occur.
Do hip dips affect general health?
Hip dips are a normal anatomical feature and do not impact your health. They are purely cosmetic concerns for those seeking to improve their appearance.
Can hip dips be prevented?
Hip dips are a natural part of body shape and cannot be entirely prevented, though targeted exercises can enhance their appearance.
Are hip dips more common in women or men?
Hip dips are more common in women due to the difference in pelvic structure.
Do treatments for hip dips affect my ability to exercise?
After the initial recovery period, most patients can return to their exercise routines, though intense activity should be avoided during the first few weeks.
What happens if I don’t undergo any procedure?
If you choose not to undergo surgery, your natural body shape will remain unchanged. Hip dips are common and do not affect health.
Does hip dips correction leave scars?
Yes, like any surgical procedure, there may be some scarring. However, incisions are typically small and well-concealed.
Can hip dips be corrected without surgery?
Non-surgical options, such as dermal fillers, can temporarily improve the appearance of hip dips, but results are not as long-lasting as surgical procedures.

Hip dips, although a natural feature, can be a source of concern for some patients who desire a more sculpted appearance. When performing this surgery, I focus on ensuring that the correction not only adds volume but does so in a way that looks completely natural and in proportion with the rest of the body. What’s most rewarding for me is seeing my patients' satisfaction as they notice a smoother, more refined silhouette along with a recovery that is quick and comfortable thanks to modern, minimally invasive surgical techniques.

As a surgeon, I always strive for the perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality. In hip dips correction, achieving a smooth transition between the hips and buttocks is key. I focus on maintaining naturalness in all my procedures, using the patient’s own fat to fill these areas and create a contour that both looks and feels authentic. The satisfaction my patients feel when they see a more sculpted body while still preserving their unique essence is what motivates me every day.
