This type of question is always better addressed at a consultation where you can actually show a plastic surgeon the problem area. Is the fat pocket on both sides? Is it a round mass of fat on one side and very round (lipoma)? whatever it is, sounds like it could be corrected via plastic surgery. You do not have to be over 18 if you have parental consent.

If the mass of fat is a lipoma (which is nothing to be concerned about) it can be easily removed by a general surgeon and would most likely be covered by your insurance. If it is just excess fat that will not resolve with diet and exercise, you will need plastic surgery (liposuction) which is an out of pocket expense
