Fat Transfer

Natural Volume Restoration for Body Balance and Subtle Enhancement
This treatment is ideal for addressing localized indentations, volume loss, or asymmetry that can occur with age. One commonly treated area is the “thutt” — the space between the outer thigh and the lower curve of the buttocks. As volume diminishes over time, this region can become indented, creating an uneven contour. By reinjecting a patient’s own fat, we can restore smoother transitions and lift the area subtly without exaggerating natural curves.

The THUTT area, a term to describe the anatomical connection between the outer thigh and the buttock, can often present aesthetic challenges for those seeking a more contoured figure. Many patients approach cosmetic procedures with a desire for outer thigh liposuction, yet they frequently overlook a critical factor: the noticeable bulge in this region is often a result of volume loss in the lateral buttock area.
To address this issue comprehensively, we perform micro-liposuction of the outer thigh combined with targeted fat transfer. During the procedure, we carefully extract small amounts of fat from the outer thigh using minimally invasive liposuction methods. This harvested fat is then processed to ensure optimal quality and viability before it is meticulously injected into the lateral buttock area.
This dual approach not only re-flattens the contour of the thigh but also restores lost volume in the buttock, resulting in a smoother, more harmonious transition between the two areas. The outcome is a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the overall body silhouette while maintaining natural proportions.

You may be wondering, “What is the thutt?” The thutt is the area between the outer thigh and the butt.
As we age, we experience a loss of volume in the buttocks, causing an indentation to form on the side of the hips.
To correct this issue, we perform a fat transfer, where purified fat is strategically injected into the indentation of the buttocks to refresh its appearance, giving it a natural boost without changing the shape. Other than the bone marrow, the best form of stem cells in the human body is your own purified fat.
This procedure is performed under local anesthesia and has an expected 24-48 hour recovery period. Get that better, rounder, smoother, firmer booty you once had!

FAQ: Fat Transfer at PFRANKMD
Fat transfer involves removing fat from one part of the body using gentle liposuction, purifying it, and then reinjecting it into another area to enhance volume or correct contour irregularities.
The “thutt” is the area where the buttocks meet the upper thigh. It is a common location for age-related volume loss, which can create indentations or an uneven appearance. Fat transfer smooths and refreshes this area naturally.
Most patients return to daily activities within 24–48 hours. Swelling and mild bruising may occur and typically resolve within 1–2 weeks.
Fat transfer results are long-lasting. While some of the transferred fat may be naturally reabsorbed, the remaining fat that integrates will stay. Final results are usually visible within 3 months.
Ideal candidates have enough donor fat, realistic expectations, and are in good health. This treatment is not for everyone, and alternative treatments may be recommended if fat transfer is not the best match for your goals.
All procedures carry some risk. These may include asymmetry, reabsorption of fat, or uneven texture. Choosing an experienced provider and following post-care instructions minimizes these risks.
No. A traditional BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) often involves aggressive fat transfer and reshaping, which can create exaggerated results. At PFRANKMD, we take a more conservative, medically advanced approach rooted in natural aesthetics and safety.
