Correction for the iatrogenic form of banana fold and sensuous triangle deformity.

The "banana fold," or the infragluteal fold, is a fat deposit on the posterior thigh near the gluteal crease and parallel to it. The "sensuous triangle" is found at the junction of the lateral buttocks, the lateral thigh, and the posterior thigh. The iatrogenic forms of banana fold and sensuous triangle deformity are produced by excessive liposuction. The authors' experience using autologous fat transplantation to treat tissue defects led them to use this technique for correcting iatrogenic forms of banana fold and sensuous triangle deformity. The simplicity of the procedure, the low incidence of complications, and the high satisfaction rate makes autologous fat transplantation an attractive option for correcting iatrogenic complications of liposuction.
