Q: I want an hourglass figure. I am fully aware that with my wide shoulders and no hips, I will need to add a lot of fat to the hips. I also want a butt! Im concerned that there is not going to be enough fat to accomplish this or that there is a limitation as to how much can be taken out. Ideally, i would like about 1100CCs per buttock. To accomplish the hourglass figure, there is about 1.5 inch difference so that my shoulders and hips align.

A: 5000 cc is the maximum amount of fat (and fluid) that can safely be harvested in one liposuction procedure. I have frequently transferred over 1000 cc of fat into each buttock and/or hip. I certainly understand the balanced, shapely look you are trying to achieve. In my Atlanta area surgery center, I tell my patients that I cannot guarantee a volume of fat that I am going to transfer. The butt can only hold so much fat and I cannot predict just what volume that will be before surgery! Talk to your surgeon about the look you want. Bring wish pictures and look at your doctor’s before and after pictures. Look for someone with a lot of experience with fat grafting to the butt and hips and who seems to understand the look you are going for.
