About Buccal Fat Removal Surgery

Buccal fat removal surgery is the procedure of permanently removing the buccal fat pad to improve the appearance of the cheeks. Removing this fat pad highlights the bone structure of the face, making it more defined and chiseled. It is also known as cheek reduction.

It is purely a cosmetic surgery that people choose for personal reasons. The surgery can be performed in both males and females. If you also wish to get rid of the fat from your cheeks, get in touch with Pristyn Care and undergo buccal fat removal surgery in Alappuzha by expert plastic surgeons.

Treatment

Diagnosis

During your consultation with the plastic surgeon, he/she will examine your face and take photographs from different angles. The doctor will ask about your overall health, family health history, and past surgeries that you had.

Other examinations, such as blood pressure tests, blood tests, liver function tests, etc., will be done on the day of surgery.

Procedure

After confirming that you are an ideal candidate for buccal fat removal surgery, the doctor will ask you to sign a consent form and then proceed. The surgery will include the following steps-

  • Anesthesia is administered to the patient to numb the surgery site. General anesthesia or intravenous sedation may be used for the procedure.
  • The incision is made inside the mouth on each side. The buccal fat pad is located and then excised completely.
  • Post-removal, the incisions are closed, and absorbable sutures are used to close them.

As soon as the buccal fat is removed, you will be able to see the slimmer and contoured cheek. The entire procedure takes around 20 to 45 minutes approximately and is performed on an outpatient basis.

Frequently Asked Question

Is it possible to get rid of buccal fat without surgery?

Typically, you cannot get rid of the buccal fat naturally. The fat pad is not affected by age, weight gain/loss, or other factors. Thus, the best method to get rid of the fat is to opt for surgical treatment.

Who cannot undergo buccal fat removal surgery?

Buccal fat removal surgery is not suitable for everyone. Hence, it won’t be recommended to you if-

  • Your face is narrow and naturally thin.
  • You have Parry-Romberg Syndrome, also known as progressive hemifacial atrophy, that is causing one side of the face to shrink.
  • You are over 50 or 60 years old because as you get older, the facial skin gets sagged, and you naturally lose fat.

What is the minimum age to undergo buccal fat removal surgery?

Typically, the right age for buccal fat removal surgery is above 20. Till the age of 20 years, the fat pad continues to grow. Thus, it is safer to remove the fat only after that.

Can buccal fat removal make my jawline slim?

Technically, buccal fat removal has negligible to no effect on the jawline. But as the cheekbones become more defined, the jawline also appears sculpted. The absence of a buccal fat pad enhances the natural contours of the face.

How much does buccal fat removal cost in Alappuzha?

The cost of buccal fat removal surgery in Alappuzha ranges from Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 50,000. This cost varies for each patient. To get a specific estimate, you can call Pristyn Care and talk to our medical coordinators.
