Seek diagnosis: If this is something that clearly makes you different from others of your age, gender, and body habitus, you may have been with lipodystrophy. Hiv medications & some other things can also cause this. If you are just lean overall, or if others don't see why you are concerned, but you focus on this, then ask your physician whether you might have body dysmorphic disorder. Just covering all bases. :).
