Hip Augmentation in Houston, TX

Yes, our patients at Glamour Plastic Surgery and Med Spa frequently choose to have several cosmetic procedures performed during a single session, in order to save time and money, as well as reducing exposure to anesthesia, and having to recover only once from various surgeries. By combining your hip implant procedure with another procedure, such as breast implants, gluteal augmentation, or a tummy tuck, you can achieve a more comprehensive makeover and be even happier with your new appearance.

If at any point you desire to have your hip implants removed or replaced, you may undergo a revision surgery to achieve this. In some cases, a patient may choose to have their hip implants replaced with a fat transfer or fat grafting procedure that uses fat from their own body.

Hip augmentation is a cosmetic body contouring procedure that enhances the shape, width, and projection of the hips. This can be achieved using fat transfer, commonly called hip augmentation with fat grafting, or with silicone hip implants. The goal is to create a more balanced silhouette and improve body proportions.

You may be a good candidate for hip augmentation if you are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and want to improve the appearance of narrow hips, hip dips, or body asymmetry. During your consultation, Dr. Bachilo will evaluate your anatomy and discuss the most appropriate treatment option for your goals.

Yes. Hip augmentation is one of the most effective treatments for hip dips. Fat grafting can fill depressed areas along the outer hips to create smoother curves and a more balanced transition between the waist, hips, and thighs.

The length of surgery depends on the technique used and whether additional procedures are performed at the same time. In most cases, hip augmentation can take between two and four hours. Dr. Bachilo will provide a personalized surgical plan during your consultation.

Most patients experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort during the initial recovery period. Many individuals can return to light daily activities within one to two weeks, although strenuous exercise and pressure on the treated area should be avoided until cleared by your surgeon.

Hip implant results are considered long-lasting. For fat transfer procedures, a portion of the transferred fat will permanently survive and become part of the body's natural tissue. Maintaining a stable weight can help preserve your results for many years.

Yes. Hip augmentation is often combined with liposuction, Brazilian Butt Lift surgery, tummy tuck surgery, or a mommy makeover to create more comprehensive body contouring results and enhance overall body proportions.

Every surgical procedure creates some degree of scarring. However, incision placement is carefully planned to keep scars as discreet as possible. Fat transfer procedures typically require only small liposuction and injection entry points, while hip implants require slightly larger incisions that are concealed whenever possible.

The cost of hip augmentation varies depending on the technique used, the complexity of the procedure, anesthesia fees, and whether additional procedures are performed. During your consultation, you will receive a customized treatment plan and detailed pricing information based on your specific goals.
