Flat or Undefined Buttocks

What a flat buttock looks like

Some people have little projection or roundness, especially in the upper buttock. Others notice a square shape, hip dips, or not much curve between the waist and hips. Jeans and fitted dresses often sit awkwardly as a result.

Why squats only go so far

Your pelvic shape and where your body stores fat are largely inherited. Weight loss and aging can also deflate the area. Glute training builds muscle and is absolutely worth doing, but it can't change your frame or add fat where your body doesn't naturally put it.

How a BBL works

In a Brazilian Butt Lift, Dr. Kim uses liposuction to take fat from places you'd like smaller, often the abdomen, flanks, or back. That fat is purified and transferred to the buttocks and hips. You end up with a slimmer waist and more shape below it, which is why the change often looks bigger than the amount of fat actually moved.

Safety comes first with this procedure. That means careful patient selection, a thoughtful surgical plan, and clear recovery instructions, including how to sit and sleep in the first few weeks. Not all transferred fat survives, so the final shape settles over several months.

You'll need enough donor fat to work with, good general health, and no smoking. If you're very lean, Dr. Kim will be honest about what's realistic.
