Hip dips are a completely natural anatomical feature shaped by the structure of the pelvis, but many people feel they disrupt the smooth curve of their silhouette. At London Medical and Aesthetic Clinic, we use Lanluma — an advanced collagen-stimulating injectable — to gently fill and soften this indentation, creating a rounder, more balanced and harmonious hip contour without the need for surgery. As one of the first clinics in the UK to introduce Lanluma, and under the guidance of Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi, we have become a recognised leader in non-surgical hip dip correction.
Lanluma is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a clinically proven collagen stimulator that adds natural volume by encouraging your own tissue to regenerate from within. When injected into the hip dip area, it gradually rebuilds the underlying structure, resulting in smooth, long-lasting shaping that blends seamlessly with your natural curves. Unlike traditional fillers that sit superficially and offer temporary volume, Lanluma triggers a deeper regenerative response, producing a soft, subtle and authentically shaped contour over the course of several months.
Patients travel from across the UK and internationally to undergo Lanluma hip dip correction with Mr Ayoubi. His advanced understanding of PLLA-based contouring, combined with a precise and artistic injection technique, allows him to achieve smooth, symmetrical and natural-looking shaping without an overfilled or artificial appearance.
What Are Hip Dips?
Hip dips—sometimes known as violin hips—are the inward indentations that sit between the hip bone and the top of the thigh. They are completely normal, but some people feel they give the hips a boxy, uneven or interrupted shape. Because hip dips are caused by bone structure rather than fat distribution, exercise alone cannot remove or significantly reduce them.
Lanluma offers a safe and effective non-surgical solution for softening this indentation and creating a smooth curve along the hips. By encouraging the body to build collagen in the hollowed area, the dip gradually fills out and blends into the surrounding contours, giving a more rounded, feminine or athletic silhouette depending on your goals.

Why Choose Dr Ayham Al Ayoubi for Your Lanluma Hip Dip Treatment
Dr Ayham Al Ayoubi is widely recognised as one of the leading experts in Lanluma treatment across the UK and Europe. As the first surgeon to introduce Lanluma to the UK, he has played a key role in developing the advanced techniques now used by practitioners nationwide. His deep understanding of PLLA-based collagen stimulation, combined with specialist training in facial plastic surgery, allows him to approach hip dip correction with exceptional anatomical precision. Rather than simply filling an indentation, he evaluates the entire hip structure, waist–hip–thigh proportions and natural asymmetries to create shaping that is balanced, smooth and aesthetically refined. His results are known for being subtle, elegant and long-lasting, with an emphasis on natural movement and seamless blending.
To support this, Dr Ayoubi uses a highly controlled injection method designed to ensure accurate placement, optimal collagen response and even distribution throughout the hip dip area. This reduces the risk of lumps or irregularities and allows the shape to develop gradually over several months in the most natural way. As a trusted trainer and educator for clinicians across Europe, he continues to lead the field in advanced collagen-stimulation techniques, with many medical professionals travelling to London specifically to learn his approach.

How Lanluma Improves Hip Dips
Lanluma works by stimulating the growth of deep-layer collagen, rather than adding temporary gel-like volume. When injected into the hip dip area, its PLLA micro-particles trigger the body to gradually rebuild structure and fullness in the hollowed region. Over time, the indentation softens, the curve becomes more rounded, and the transition between waist, hips and thighs appears smoother and more balanced.
Benefits of Lanluma for hip dips include:
- Fills and softens the inward indentation
- Creates a rounder, more defined hip contour
- Smooths transitions between waist and thigh
- Enhances curves without appearing artificial
- Supports symmetry between both sides
- Provides long-lasting volume through natural collagen
The result is shapely and elegant, while still being soft, flexible and completely natural to the touch.
Advanced Lanluma Hip Dip Correction by Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi
Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi introduced Lanluma to the UK and played a key role in developing the advanced techniques used today for non-surgical hip dip correction. His method focuses on deep, even placement of PLLA to create smooth transitions, symmetrical shaping and natural, long-lasting contour refinement. By working precisely within the correct anatomical plane, he achieves soft, seamless curves without the overfilled appearance sometimes seen with traditional fillers.
As one of Europe’s recognised specialists in PLLA-based body contouring, Mr Ayoubi continues to train clinicians from across the UK and internationally in safe and effective Lanluma techniques. London Medical and Aesthetic Clinic is now regarded as a leading training centre for Lanluma, setting a high standard for natural, elegant hip contouring using collagen-stimulation technology.
Lanluma Hip Dip Correction vs Traditional Fillers
Traditional fillers can create instant volume, but they are not ideal for the hip dip area because they sit superficially and break down relatively quickly. Lanluma works at a deeper level, stimulating your body to produce the collagen needed to achieve a smooth shape that behaves like natural tissue.
Lanluma offers:
- Gradual, authentic-looking improvement
- A soft, natural feel
- Longer-lasting results (typically 2–5 years)
- Better blending with surrounding tissue
- Less risk of lumpiness in the hip region
For contouring hip dips, PLLA-based collagen stimulators are considered the most reliable and natural method of non-surgical enhancement.
Who Is Suitable for Lanluma Hip Dip Correction?
Lanluma is suitable for men and women who want to improve the shape and smoothness of their hips without undergoing surgery. It is an ideal option for:
- Naturally pronounced hip dips
- Uneven or asymmetric hips
- Hip dips made more noticeable by weight loss
- Patients who prefer subtle, natural enhancement rather than dramatic volume
- Those who do not have enough fat for surgical fat transfer
- Anyone seeking a non-surgical body contouring solution with minimal downtime
During your consultation, Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi will assess your hip shape, skin quality and aesthetic goals to design a personalised treatment plan.
The Lanluma Hip Dip Procedure
Every Lanluma hip dip treatment at London Medical and Aesthetic Clinic is performed personally by Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi, whose advanced knowledge of PLLA-based contouring allows him to tailor the procedure precisely to each patient’s anatomy. His meticulous approach ensures smooth transitions, balanced shaping and natural contours that blend seamlessly with the surrounding hip structure.
The procedure typically includes:
- Assessment & Consultation
A detailed evaluation of your hip shape, tissue quality and aesthetic goals to determine the most effective treatment approach. - Treatment Planning
Careful mapping of the injection points to ensure consistent placement and an even, harmonious correction of the indentation. - Numbing the Area
Local anaesthetic is applied to maximise comfort throughout the procedure. - Lanluma Injection
The Lanluma solution is introduced using a blunt-tipped cannula, allowing the product to be placed safely and precisely within the correct tissue plane. - Moulding & Shaping
Gentle sculpting of the treated area ensures smooth distribution and supports optimal collagen stimulation. - Post-Care Guidance
You will receive clear instructions on how to massage the area over the following days to encourage even collagen development and maintain smooth contours.
A typical session lasts approximately 30–45 minutes, with patients able to resume normal daily activities shortly afterwards.
Results and Longevity
Lanluma creates a gradual, natural improvement in the shape and smoothness of hip dips by stimulating your own collagen to rebuild volume where it is needed most. The transformation happens in stages, allowing the enhancement to blend seamlessly with your natural silhouette. Immediately after treatment, you will notice a temporary fullness due to the water content in the product, but this settles within a few days as the solution absorbs.
Over the next four to eight weeks, early collagen formation begins, and the indentation starts to soften as new tissue develops beneath the skin. Between three and six months, the hips noticeably round out and the dip becomes progressively smoother, revealing the full contouring effect of the treatment.
Because Lanluma works through collagen regeneration, the results are long-lasting, typically remaining visible for two to five years depending on your body’s natural collagen turnover and lifestyle factors. The new volume feels completely natural, moves with your body and integrates beautifully with surrounding tissue, creating a smooth, elegant curve that enhances your overall shape.
What to Expect at Each Stage
Immediately After Treatment
You’ll notice an instant fullness due to the water content mixed with the Lanluma solution. This gives a preview of the shape but is not the final result.
2–4 Days
The temporary volume settles as the water absorbs. The hips may feel slightly firm or tender, which is normal and short-lived.
4–8 Weeks
Collagen begins to develop beneath the skin. The indentation gradually softens, and the hip contour starts to look smoother and more balanced.
3–6 Months
This is when the full effect becomes clear. The hips appear rounder, the dip significantly reduced, and the overall curve more defined and natural.
2–5 Years
Your results typically remain visible for several years because the volume is created by your own collagen. Longevity varies based on lifestyle, metabolism and individual collagen turnover.
Safety of Lanluma for Hip Dips
Lanluma has an excellent safety profile and uses poly-L-lactic acid, a material with more than 30 years of medical use in dissolvable sutures, implants and other biocompatible devices. At our clinic, every treatment is performed by Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi, ensuring the product is placed in the correct anatomical plane and in precise amounts.
Side effects are generally mild and short-lived, such as redness, swelling or tenderness. Rarely, small nodules can form if the product is injected too superficially or if aftercare massage is not followed correctly—but with proper technique and post-care guidance, this is easily avoided.
Lanluma is MHRA-approved in the UK and is considered a safe, well-tolerated and predictable collagen stimulator when administered by experienced clinicians.
Aftercare
To support a smooth collagen response, we recommend:
- Massaging the area twice daily for 5 days
- Avoiding strenuous exercise for 48 hours
- Drinking plenty of water
- Avoiding NSAIDs before and after treatment
Most patients return to normal daily activities immediately.

Lanluma Hip Dips FAQs
How many sessions will I need for hip dip correction?
Most patients require between two and four sessions, spaced three to four weeks apart, to achieve smooth and balanced hip contours. The exact number depends on the depth of the indentation, the quality of the surrounding tissue and the level of fullness you wish to achieve. During your consultation, Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi will assess your hip structure and create a personalised plan that ensures even, natural-looking rounding of both sides. Some individuals with very prominent hip dips may benefit from an additional session, while those seeking subtle softening often achieve their desired result with fewer treatments.
When will I start seeing results?
You may notice a temporary increase in volume immediately after treatment due to the water content in the Lanluma suspension, but this settles within a few days. True results develop gradually as collagen begins to form in the treated area, with early improvement typically becoming visible around four to eight weeks. The hips continue to round and smooth over several months as deeper collagen remodelling takes place. Most patients see their full, final shaping effect at around three to six months, which is why Lanluma is valued for its natural progression rather than an abrupt, obvious change.
How long do Lanluma hip dip results last?
Because Lanluma stimulates your own collagen rather than placing a synthetic filler, the results tend to be long-lasting, typically between two and five years. Lifestyle factors such as weight fluctuations, smoking and exercise habits can influence longevity, as can individual collagen turnover. Many patients enjoy their results for several years without further treatment, while others choose optional maintenance sessions every 18–24 months to keep the hips softly rounded and well-defined. The collagen created is your own tissue, so the result fades gradually rather than suddenly disappearing.
Does Lanluma for hip dips look natural?
Yes, Lanluma produces exceptionally natural results because the volume comes from your own collagen rather than a gel-based filler. Once collagen has formed, the treated area feels soft, flexible and indistinguishable from the surrounding tissue. This makes it ideal for hip dip correction, where smooth blending and natural movement are essential. Unlike traditional fillers, Lanluma does not create a firm or overfilled look, and the gradual development of the result allows the enhancement to settle subtly into your natural silhouette.
Is the procedure painful?
Most patients find the treatment very tolerable, as the area is numbed with local anaesthetic before the injections begin. A blunt cannula is used to place the product safely and comfortably, which significantly reduces discomfort compared with needle-based treatments. You may feel a sense of pressure or a mild pushing sensation, but this is usually brief and easily managed. Some tenderness or tightness can occur afterwards, particularly when sitting or lying on your side, but this typically settles within a few days and does not require downtime.
Is there any downtime after Lanluma hip dip treatment?
There is minimal downtime, and most patients resume normal activities immediately after their appointment. Mild swelling, tenderness or slight bruising can occur, especially in the first few days, but these are temporary and part of the normal healing response. We recommend avoiding strenuous lower-body exercise for 48 hours and following the massage routine advised by Mr Ayoubi to support smooth and even collagen formation. Most patients return to work the same day or the following morning without any issues.
Is Lanluma safe for treating hip dips?
Lanluma is considered very safe when performed by an experienced specialist, and its active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid, has been used in medical applications such as dissolvable sutures for decades. At our clinic, all hip dip treatments are carried out personally by Mr Ayham Al Ayoubi, ensuring accurate placement and even distribution. Side effects are uncommon and usually mild, such as redness, swelling or tenderness. Rarely, small nodules can develop if the product is placed too superficially or massage is not followed correctly, but these are largely preventable with proper technique and aftercare.
