Buccal Fat Pad Removal

The aesthetic enhancement of your profile.

Buccal Fat Pad Removal is one of the latest advancements in achieving a harmonious facial appearance. The removal of cheek fat highlights the facial angles and provides a more sculpted look, accentuating the cheekbones and the jawline.

With this minimally invasive procedure and the appropriate surgical expertise, an elegant and balanced result is achieved that elevates the facial anatomy.

THE PROCEDURE

Facial anatomy is crucial for an aesthetically pleasing image. Frequently, accumulated fat in the cheeks adds volume, creating unflattering curves instead of defined angles. At the same time, the cheekbones—which define the lines of the face—remain hidden.

Buccal Fat Pad Removal is performed under local anesthesia through a small, invisible incision inside the mouth. Through this access point, the fat typically concentrated below the cheekbones or adjacent to the corners of the mouth is removed. The result is a well-defined face with accentuated features.

The procedure is often combined with Genioplasty (Chin Surgery) and a Neck Lift for a comprehensive aesthetic upgrade.

WHO IT IS FOR

Buccal Fat Pad Removal is ideal for men and women with a round or “full” face who desire a more sculpted, angular appearance and seek a slimmer facial contour.

It is particularly suitable for individuals with a stable weight, without significant fluctuations, and in good overall health.
