The introduction of intramuscular fat grafting has enhanced contouring capabilities, with its applications extending to various muscle groups. Subperiosteal fat grafting efficacy and safety are well-established in facial surgery.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Describe the technique of combining ultrasound (US)-guided subperiosteal lipoinjection of the anterior superior iliac spine (bikini bridge) plus intramuscular fat grafting of the internal oblique muscles with HDL.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A retrospective cohort study was conducted across different specialized plastic surgery centers. Adult patients who underwent bikini bridge and dynamic definition liposculpture were included. All patients were informed of the innovative use of the technique and consented to participate. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed to summarize the variables.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 105 consecutive patients were included for analysis. Patients were mostly females (86.7%) plus 14 male patients (13.3%) who were in the gender reassignment process. Mean age was 34.3 years (standard deviation [SD] 8.7 years) and the median BMI was 22.9\u2005kg\/m2 (SD 2.74\u2005kg\/m2). All patients underwent fat grafting the iliac spines + the oblique muscles as an additional procedure to HDL. Median volume of fat injected was 15\u2005cc (interquartile range 12\u2005cc) for the iliac spines and 40\u2005cc for the internal obliques. No major complications were reported.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The
