If you want a slimmer face with more definition in the cheekbones, buccal fat removal takes out the buccal fat pads — the fatty tissue of the cheeks — to achieve that effect without major surgery.
It is one of the quickest recoveries among facial procedures: 1 to 2 weeks, with permanent results fully visible between 3 and 6 months.
Risks include hematomas, seromas, or infection, and they are discussed with you during your consultation before deciding whether you are a candidate.
Frequently asked questions
