Buttock soft tissue defects can be encountered due to many causes and also have many treatment solutions. Usually, defects are common on one side of the buttocks and cutaneous skin flaps in place, local or regional used. The article analyzes a rather rare case with a soft tissue defect in the buttocks on both sides as a necrotic sequela after injecting fillers for cosmetic purposes. After treatment of necrotizing inflammation, the sequelae left behind is a concave scar and deformed buttock on both sides. The local fat flaps are not valuable in this case, while the free fat flap will face many risks of failure due to the use of 2 flaps on both sides, the post-operative care position is also very difficult, easy to cause tension, compress the vascular pedicles. This clinical case with the use of bilateral DIEP flaps, and the postoperative results in this case are analyzed and evaluated in the article.
