Treatment Overview

About Hip & Gluteal Enhancement

Hip and gluteal enhancement procedures address volume deficiency, poor projection, and asymmetry in the lower body. At Inform Clinic in Hyderabad, Dr. Dushyanth Kalva offers Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) using the patient's own harvested fat as the primary approach, and gluteal implants for patients with insufficient donor fat. The BBL simultaneously contours the waist, flanks, and thighs through liposuction while transferring fat to the gluteal region — a full lower-body transformation in one procedure. Targeted hip fat placement improves the hip-to-waist ratio visible from the front, all while following ISAPS safety protocols for fat injection depth.

Who Is This For?

Benefits & Candidacy

Key Benefits

  • Improved gluteal projection, shape, and volume using the patient's own fat — no foreign implant
  • Simultaneous waist and flank contouring enhances the overall lower-body silhouette
  • Natural feel and texture — fat integrates as living tissue with appropriate blood supply
  • Long-lasting result once the fat has engrafted successfully (approximately 3 months)

Likely Suitable If

  • Adults with flat or asymmetric gluteal region and adequate donor fat on the abdomen, flanks, or thighs
  • Those seeking improved hip-to-waist ratio and lower body proportion
  • Good overall health and BMI appropriate for fat harvesting
  • Ability to avoid sitting directly on operated area for 2–4 weeks post-procedure

Needs Extra Evaluation

  • Very thin patients with insufficient donor fat — gluteal implants may be discussed as alternative
  • Patients unwilling to comply with strict post-operative positioning requirements
  • Active smoking — significantly compromises fat graft survival
  • Unrealistic expectation of a very high volume outcome beyond safe gluteal capacity
Healing Roadmap

Recovery Timeline

1
Week 1

Weeks 1–2

What You Can Do

  • No sitting directly on the buttocks — use a donut-shaped cushion or lie prone (on your stomach). This is critical for fat graft survival. Compression garment on harvested areas continuously.

What to Avoid

  • Avoid strenuous activity until cleared by your surgeon
  • Follow prescribed medication and aftercare schedule

Tip: Healing speed varies by treatment and individual factors. Follow-up visits are essential.

2
Weeks 2-3

Weeks 2–6

What You Can Do

  • Gradual return to sitting with the donut cushion. Avoid vigorous exercise for 6 weeks. Swelling at both harvest and transfer sites is substantial and reduces progressively.

What to Avoid

  • Avoid strenuous activity until cleared by your surgeon
  • Follow prescribed medication and aftercare schedule

Tip: Healing speed varies by treatment and individual factors. Follow-up visits are essential.

3
Weeks 4-6

Months 2–3

What You Can Do

  • The critical fat engraftment phase — approximately 30–40% of transferred fat resorbs, and the surviving volume stabilises around month 3. Final shape is assessed here.

What to Avoid

  • Avoid strenuous activity until cleared by your surgeon
  • Follow prescribed medication and aftercare schedule

Tip: Healing speed varies by treatment and individual factors. Follow-up visits are essential.

4
Months 2-3

Months 3–6

What You Can Do

  • Final results are clearly visible. Compressive scar management of liposuction areas continues. Long-term lifestyle maintenance preserves the engrafted fat.

What to Avoid

  • Avoid strenuous activity until cleared by your surgeon
  • Follow prescribed medication and aftercare schedule

Tip: Healing speed varies by treatment and individual factors. Follow-up visits are essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

BBL uses your own fat — harvested by liposuction — transferred to the gluteal region. It feels natural, simultaneously contours the waist and flanks, and avoids a foreign implant. Gluteal implants use solid silicone prostheses and are used when there is insufficient donor fat for a meaningful BBL outcome.
On average, 60–70% of carefully transferred fat survives to become permanent once fully engrafted by month 3. The exact survival rate depends on technique, patient health, activity compliance, and avoidance of direct pressure on the area during healing.
Fat grafts require a blood supply to survive. Sitting compresses the newly transferred fat cells, reducing blood flow and causing them to die before vascularisation occurs. Using a donut cushion for 4–6 weeks protects the graft and significantly improves final outcome volume.
Yes — targeted fat placement at the lateral hip dip area can meaningfully improve the hip-to-waist ratio visible from the front. Combined with waist liposuction, the overall silhouette change can be quite significant from a single procedure.
When performed by a qualified plastic surgeon following international fat injection safety guidelines — injecting only in subcutaneous planes and avoiding intravascular injection — the procedure has an excellent safety profile. Dr. Kalva follows ISAPS safety consensus protocols for all fat transfer procedures.
Cost depends on the volume of liposuction required, number of donor sites, and fat transfer volume. A detailed, transparent quote is shared after full assessment at Inform Clinic, Hyderabad.
Procedure duration varies by complexity and whether combined corrections are planned. A personalized estimate is shared during consultation.
Return to routine depends on treatment extent and your recovery pattern. Most patients resume desk work earlier than physically demanding work.
Incision placement is planned carefully to keep scars as discreet as possible. Scar maturation continues for several months.
