Buccal fat removal is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reducing the volume of fat in the cheeks. It involves the removal of buccal fat pads, which are located in the hollow area beneath the cheekbones.
Good candidates for buccal fat removal are individuals with full or round cheeks who desire a more sculpted, defined facial appearance. Applicants should have reasonable expectations for the results of the procedure and be in generally excellent condition.
Buccal fat removal is typically done under local anaesthesia on an outpatient basis. The surgeon makes a small incision inside the mouth, usually near the second upper molar. The buccal fat pad is gently teased out or partially removed to achieve the desired contour.
The effects of buccal fat removal are generally permanent but keep in mind that natural ageing and weight changes can still influence your facial contours over time.
