Buccal Fat Reduction

Reducing the volume of the buccal fat pad to achieve a more defined facial structure.

About

Buccal fat reduction also commonly known as cheek reduction surgery, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reducing the volume of the buccal fat pad to achieve a more defined facial structure. This procedure is ideal for individuals looking to diminish the appearance of overly round or "chipmunk" cheeks, enhancing facial contours and creating a more sculpted, mature look.


Ideal Candidates for Buccal Fat Reduction:

You may be a suitable candidate for this procedure if you:

- Have pronounced buccal fat pads that contribute to a fuller facial appearance.

- Seek a more contoured, defined facial structure.

- Maintain a stable weight and are in good health.

- Have realistic expectations about the surgery's outcomes.


Understanding the Procedure

- Consultation: Discussing your aesthetic goals and evaluating your facial structure to determine if buccal fat removal is appropriate for you.

- Anaesthesia: The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia, possibly with sedation, ensuring comfort throughout the surgery.

- Incision: A small incision is made inside the mouth, on the inner portion of the cheekcompletely eliminating any visible scarring.

- Fat Removal: The buccal fat pad is gently teased out and removed, instantly reducing the volume of the cheeks.

- Closure: The incisions are sutured with dissolvable stitches which do not merit removal.


Recovery Process

- Post-surgery you may experience minimal swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications.

- Dietary restrictions to soft foods and liquids may be recommended initially to facilitate healing.

- Normal activities can usually be resumed from the following day with full recovery taking a couple of weeks.


Results and Expectations

- Results begin to emerge as swelling subsides, revealing a more defined facial contour.

- Final outcomes may occasionally take few weeks to fully reveal itself as your cheeks gradually conform to their new shape.

- The effects of buccal fat reduction are permanent, enhancing the definition of your facial features.
