Buccal Fat Removal

People who are overweight may accumulate excess facial fat, which affects the appearance of the face greatly, which in turn causes inconvenience to many people, especially when this fat forms an inconsistent face and changes the personal features significantly.

It is the fat that accumulates between the cheekbones and the jawbone in the face, where it forms what looks like a large fat pad compared to the rest of the facial features, as these procedures work to get rid of this fat and restore facial sculpting to obtain a face in a consistent manner and the person is satisfied with himself.

How is Buccal Fat Removal Carried Out?

Buccal fat removal is typically done under local or general anesthesia and lasts around an hour. The surgeon creates a small incision inside the mouth, ensuring there are no visible scars, and then carefully extracts the fat pads through the incision.

It’s important to note that due to the location of the cheek fat pads, they cannot be removed with liposuction. Liposuction is only effective for fat removal in areas like the jawline, not the cheeks.
