Hip Dip Correction With Fillers in NYC (Sculptra, Radiesse, and HA)
Smooth indentations. Balance your silhouette. No surgery.
Hip dips (the natural inward curve at the outer hips) can make the waist-to-thigh line look uneven. With Sculptra (PLLA) and Radiesse (CaHA), Dr. Schwarzburg creates a smooth, rounded transition – often in 1–2 sessions with minimal downtime.

What Causes Hip Dips?
Hip dips are completely normal anatomy – they occur where the pelvic bone, fat pads, and gluteal muscles meet. While lifestyle and workouts can tone surrounding muscle, they cannot change bone structure or fat distribution.
The only reliable way to soften hip dips is through strategic filler placement, which rebuilds volume in the indentation and smooths the waist-to-thigh contour.
Why Patients Choose Skinly Aesthetics for Hip Dip Correction
- Physician-injected: All hip dip treatments are performed by Dr. Schwarzburg, MD, a board-certified expert in minimally invasive aesthetics.

- Customized hip dip plans: Whether using Sculptra, Radiesse, HA fillers, or a combination, every treatment is tailored to your anatomy, goals, and budget.
- Impressive results: Patients consistently see dramatic hip dip improvements with natural-looking curves, restored symmetry, and a balanced silhouette.

How Treatment Works (fast overview)
- Mapping – Marking the indentation and blend zones for a seamless curve
- Comfort – Local numbing; blunt-tip cannula for precise, low-trauma placement
- Placement – Sculptra/Radiesse layered in the deep subcutaneous plane to fill and blend the dip
- Back to life – Brief observation, post-care review; routine activities the same day
Results timeline: Radiesse/HA immediate; Sculptra builds over weeks, with best results at ~3–4 months.
Results & Longevity (set expectations)
- Expect natural, blended change – no “stuck-on” look
- With proper dosing, results commonly last ~1–2 years
- Variability matters: collagen response isn’t universal; some patients see minimal or no change with Sculptra, while others achieve moderate/dramatic improvement. Plans can be adjusted with Radiesse/HA or an additional session.
Aftercare (what most patients do)
- Activity: routine same day; avoid strenuous exercise 48–72h
- Care: If Sculptra is used gently massage 5 minutes 5 times a day for 5 days
- Expect: mild soreness/bruising for a few days
- Contact us if you notice increasing pain, redness, or unusual symptoms
Safety & “Dissolving” Myth (read this)
- Common, temporary effects: bruising, swelling, tenderness
- Rare with Sculptra: granulomas (collagen nodules)
- Important: there is nothing to dissolve with Sculptra; “dissolving” talk online refers to granulomas (excess collagen), which are medically treatable with steroid injections by an experienced physician.
- Radiesse/HA: rare lumps/asymmetry; HA is reversible with hyaluronidase.
Hip Dips vs “Non-Surgical BBL”
- Hip dips: filler is focused along the side indentations for a clean waist-to-thigh line
- Buttock lift/enlargement: filler is distributed across the cheeks for projection/lift
Many patients do both for a balanced silhouette.

FAQs (Hip Dips)
Most plans require 8–30 vials/syringes across 1–4 sessions for both sides.
Radiesse/Hyaluronic acid (HA): immediate. Sculptra: early change at 4–6 weeks, best at ~3–4 months.
Typically ~1–2 years depending on product, dose, and maintenance.
Yes. Placement in the deep subcutaneous plane blends the dip with surrounding tissue for a soft, seamless curve.
No – Sculptra is not reversible, but there’s nothing to dissolve. Rare granulomas (excess collagen) can be treated with steroid injections by a qualified physician.
Yes. Many patients combine side-dip smoothing with central-cheek augmentation for full-frame balance.
Pregnancy/breastfeeding, uncontrolled medical issues, bleeding/autoimmune disorders, or unrealistic expectations (e.g., expecting surgical-level change with very low doses).
Renuva is off-label for butt/hips and may be unpredictable in larger areas; Bellafill (PMMA) is permanent with risk of lifelong granulomas; silicone injections are illegal and dangerous.
Workouts can tone glutes but cannot change pelvic bone structure or fat distribution. Fillers are the only predictable fix.
No, not when injected correctly in the proper plane. Cannula technique minimizes migration risk.
