Buccal fat removal, also known as bichectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that has gained popularity in recent years. The surgery involves the removal of a small amount of fat from the buccal fat pads situated in the cheeks. The primary goal of this procedure is to achieve a more contoured and defined facial appearance by reducing the fullness in the cheeks.
The buccal fat pads are small pockets of fat located on each side of the face between the cheekbone and jawbone. Despite an individual’s overall slim and fit physique, these fat pads can contribute to a round or chubby facial appearance. Buccal fat removal proves to be an effective method to reduce the size of these fat pads, ultimately creating a more sculpted facial aesthetic.
