Yes. : Yes. More often than not the patients that can really benefit from fat transfer do not have enough fat to transfer and make needed volume improvement. Speak to a plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your options. Best of luck to you.

Yes: Curvy hips are a very feminine characteristic. If your hips are straight, you can augment them with fat transfer to give you a curvy look.
