Question

is there any way doctors can shave bone...to make it smaller? i have wide hips..not fat hips...but the bone is big...is there any way a doctor can do something bout that?

Answer 1

Don't know, but i as many other guys happen to like wide hips!

Answer 2

It CAN be done, however, you will pay a high price for this, and the money you spend will be the least of the problems you will have as a result:

1) painful operation;
2) some nasty scarring that won't go away;
3) possibility of long-term/future health problems (osteoporosis, degenerative bone problems, arthritis, etc.); and
4) the emotional fact that slimmer hips will not change the person you are inside.

For whatever my opinion is worth, unless you have a medical condition which REQUIRES this type of surgery, forget about getting it done. Accept yourself for who you are (both good and bad), like the person you see each day in the mirror, and you'll find yourself happier as a result (which leads to a lot more positive things in your life than slimmer hips ever will).

Good Luck!

Answer 3

Most people have relatively the same bone size.
Some look bigger because of the extra padding(fat) around the bone but some look small because of the lack of padding.

Yes, doctors can shave your bone but fortunately our body heals itself and the bone will grow back to original size, but not always original shape.

You will need to see a plastic surgeon for the procedure but it will not be covered by you insurance because it is not medically necessary.

Answer 4

They can shave bones to make it smaller

But for hips...it probably wouldn't be a good idea, especially if you want to have children, as the hips provide good support...

Answer 5

What? Why on Earth would you want to do that? Guys love hips. You ladies are too obsessed with these tall lanky models you see in magazines. Personally I find them kind of disgusting. Newsflash guys want women that look like women, not 12 year old boys. Those women in magazines are what the fashion industry (gay guys and women) think a woman should look like, two groups of people that don't want to date you anyway. Look at the women in men's magazines, they are usually much more curvy and voluptous.

Answer 6

i don't think so , and the fact that u would consider it is sad. be happy with your body, wide hips are a sign of fertility and are more attractive. It sounds to me like the doctor you need is a therapist because you obviously have self image issues

Answer 7

Wide Hips mean easy baby delivery and no c section you should be glad about that, let me know if you wanna test the theory I'm willing ready and able wink wink.

Answer 8

Yes they can, but its expensive and dangerous.
anytime u break a smoth edge your body tries to repair itself
and when bones heal... sometimes they get bigger
its also gonna hurt.
and healing on an uneven surface can cause bone spurs....
think needles, growing out of your bones into the skin and muscle
they hurt like hell
and then u have to have surgery to trim them...and it hurts...
and surgery to remove them isnt always permenant...
lots of times...they grow back....and that hurts too..

they can break bones..reset them and stretch them as they heal
some people have surgery to make themselves taller.
all of them claim it was worth it...but.....
every single one said it was the hardest thing they ever did...and it hurt...a lot...
every day....
besides.... you look fine

Answer 9

they can model small parts like the nose, and i think they could manage big bones but if it was a big deal. even if they could, i don't think you would want to go through that, as it sure is painfull as hell!! try to get along with your body, it looks nice already anyway!!

Answer 10

if that is your actual picture it doesnt look like you need anything done. you look good and don't need to be smaller. even if there was a way to do that why would you want to go thru that pain when you are great the way you are
