Candidate Type 1
Under-buttock drooping type
An impression where the under-buttock line blurs and the hip looks long and drooped. Restoring lower support, rather than volume, is key.
Thread Lift
Elasticum Hip Up Lifting
The hip-up lift is a different approach from simply adding volume
When the hip looks elongated, the under-buttock line has drooped, or the lower support has weakened, restoring the position of the line and its support can matter more than volume.
This is the program we previously introduced on our former website as the 'Double-Tight Hip-Up Lift' — we assess the under-buttock line and lower support together.
When to Consider
You may consider it in cases like these
Not every hip concern is only a matter of lacking volume. Under-buttock support and the impression of the lower line can greatly affect how the whole hip feels.
- 01My hips droop downward, making my legs look shorter
- 02The under-buttock line looks blurry and drooped
- 03My hips look long and flat, not a compact impression
- 04Lower support has weakened after childbirth or dieting
- 05Surgery feels like too much; I just want to refine the drooping
Which Impression to Improve
Which hip impression is this approach meant to improve
The Elasticum Hip-Up Lift aims to restore the position of the line and its support rather than to enlarge volume. You may consider it if you are close to one of the two impressions below.
Candidate Type 2
Lacking-compactness type
A case where the whole hip disperses downward and looks flat. We gather the line upward to create a more organized impression.
Mechanism
How Elasticum works
Special threads are used to lift drooped tissue upward and fix it in place to refine the line. It is a concept of restoring position and support rather than adding volume.
- PositionLifts drooped tissue back toward its original position to refine the line.
- SupportRestores support in the under-buttock line and lower tissue for a more compact impression.
- FixationBecause the direction and position of the special threads determine the result, assessment is important.
- Minimally invasiveA procedure with minimized incisions to reduce the recovery burden.
Within Hip Line Design
What role it plays within hip-line design
Elasticum takes on the "lifting" role within the overall hip-line design. If volume is also lacking it is combined with fat grafting, and if the surrounding line is heavy it is combined with line refinement for a more organized flow.
Combination Plan
Combination with fat grafting
If upper-hip and side-hip volume are also lacking, we design position and support together in combination with fat grafting.
Combination Plan
Combination with line refinement
If the thigh connection is heavy, we combine it with refinement of the surrounding line to create the overall flow.
Doctor Consultation
In consultation we check skin elasticity, lower support, and soft-tissue condition together
Suitability varies with the direction and degree of drooping, skin elasticity, and soft-tissue condition. After assessment in consultation, we guide you on whether it applies and on the combination direction.
- Under-buttock line position and degree of drooping
- Lower-hip support condition
- Skin elasticity and thickness
- Soft-tissue distribution
- Hip vertical length vs. width ratio
- Whether combined fat grafting or line refinement is needed
- Recovery and care plan
Wanted Lifestyle
A compact hip impression changes how clothes fit and leg proportion together
We aim for a refined line rather than volume. When the under-buttock line becomes distinct, the whole hip impression can look shorter and clearer.
"When the under-buttock line is refined — the impression of clothing fit and leg proportion changes with it."

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the Elasticum Hip-Up Lift
Q. How is the Elasticum Hip-Up Lift different from fat grafting?
If fat grafting is a concept of filling in volume, the hip-up lift is a concept of lifting drooped tissue upward and supporting it. If lacking volume is the core issue, fat grafting may suit; if under-buttock line drooping and lower support are the core issue, lifting may suit.
Q. In what cases can I consider a hip-up lift?
You may consider it when the under-buttock line is blurry and the hip looks long and drooped, or when lower support has weakened after childbirth or dieting. However, suitability may vary with skin elasticity, drooping direction, and soft-tissue condition, so we assess it in consultation.
Q. How long do the results last?
The duration may vary with individual skin elasticity, soft-tissue condition, and lifestyle habits. In some cases a repeat procedure may be needed after a certain time, and we guide you on the expected course in consultation.
Q. Can it be done together with fat grafting?
When both lacking volume and drooping are present, fat grafting and lifting are sometimes combined. Which combination suits may vary with the assessment result.
Q. How long is the recovery period?
Return to daily life after going home the same day is relatively quick, but swelling and a tight feeling can last about 1–2 weeks. Recovery speed and intensity may vary between individuals.

NB Elasticum Hip-Up Lifting
If the position of the line, not volume, has been on your mind, let's check it together in consultation
We look at the under-buttock line, lower support, skin elasticity, and soft-tissue condition together and guide you on suitability and the combination direction. From a photo alone, you can first receive a rough consultation direction.

* Whether it can be applied and the suitable method may vary with individual skin elasticity, soft-tissue condition, and past surgery.
