    Default botox? collagen injection? lipo?

    Okay - for all of you girls who know about cosmetic surgery / procedures, this question is for you - ever since I was a child, I've had a small dimple in my left thigh - just like a dimple someone has on their cheek. It's never changed size, and my bodyfat level is low - so it's not a cellulite issue - i've had it all my life - and it annoys me - Everyone says they can't see it, but I can, and I want to get rid of it.

    Does anyone know what procedure I'd have to use to get rid of it, or is that even possible? I don't think it would be via botox since that deals with the muscles, but maybe a collagen injection? If you know, how long will it last, how much does it cost, etc...

    Any feedback is appreciated.

    Dimple or a pucker or a pock? How big? DOes it have a discernable crease?

    They probably could take some fat from somewhere if ya have any if not I CAN LEND YA SOME LOL! Hee hee, but then then can deposit it there to fill it in - they are doing that now sculpting and such with the fat thing.

    Was a huge special on cosmetic procedures I caught a couple weeks ago where this lady had lipo on her thighs from one surgeon and he screwed up some areas so she went to this guy well known for not just the lipo but the sculpting aspect that can be done with fat deposits to alter appearance, he redid her legs and filled out these odd dips in her thighs and hips area that the previous "butcher" created.

    Maybe this would be it? Maybe a consultation with your favorite doc or start looking for a doc that specializes in this... and get the whole low down on that kind of repairitve procedure.

    I bet ya you can get it done, they are doing great stuff now - some of these docs have taken it to a fine art!

    Good luck!

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    Yea like LEIGH said if it is a dimple, like a little dent, the best procedure would be to have your own fat drawn out of a certain part of your body, usually buttocks through a needle, and then the doctor drains the blood and other fluids that came out with your fat. Then injects it into your dimple. Since our fat seems to move around some, you may need a few trips to get it just right. It will fill in eventually, hell, maybe the first time, and your body does not reject your own fat. So no worry of an allergic reaction! It's just about getting your fat to stay in that spot.
    Talk to a P.S. Good luck,

    Yes, it's a little pucker - it's about half the size of a dime, i guess. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I just don't like it. (you know how we can be about our own bodies!) the less fat I have on my legs, the more it shows up - so I guess that the fat injection would be the best. Gross.
    All for the love of beauty! HAha.

    anyone have any ideas of what these procedures cost?
    It's not going to be worth it if it will break the bank. I'd rather use that money for laser hair removal!

    gosh, never had it done, just heard about it via the media, so I have clue on pricing but it may not be that much and I bet it is quick as a wink - done in the office!

    Pull up some websites PS websites and start sorting thru them, see who offers what and maybe you can email them on a price?

    I recently emailed the DOC I really like out in Van for a price and gave me one in a return email! So they will do that just gotta drop em a line....

    You're in NY so go to google and type in plastic surgeons New York - see what it comes up with?
