Buccal Fat Excision - Reduced Roundness in Cheeks for a Streamlined Facial Appearance!
Dr. Rajat Gupta, a renowned surgeon at RG Aesthetics in Delhi, India, has made a name for himself in the field of cosmetic surgery. After completing his training at Maulana Azad Medical College, he strives to offer the best remedies and cosmetic procedures, equipped with the latest technology, to his patients in India and beyond.
One such procedure is Buccal Pad Fat Removal, a cosmetic surgery recommended for individuals with overly full cheeks who wish to improve their appearance. This procedure can be completed in less than an hour, allowing for a quick return to normal life.
The surgery involves an incision of around 1/2cm at the buccal mucosa inside the oral cavity, followed by the removal of excessive fat tissue from the cheeks. The incision is then closed with sutures, and the recovery usually takes only 2-3 days. Regular exercises may not effectively reduce buccal pad fat as it is embedded in the superficial layer of the skin.
Benefits of Buccal Pad Fat Removal
Buccal Pad Fat Removal offers several benefits. It can provide a slimmer and more defined facial appearance by reducing "chubby" or "chipmunk" cheeks. Enhanced facial symmetry and improved jawline definition are also common outcomes.
For patients with abnormally large buccal fat pads, the surgery can offer functional benefits, improving breathing, speaking, or eating. Buccal Pad Fat Removal can boost self-confidence by revealing sharper cheekbones and a contoured jawline. The results are long-lasting and difficult to achieve through diet or exercise alone.
Procedure of Buccal Pad Fat Removal
The procedure is performed through a small incision inside the mouth (intraoral), so there are no visible scars. Fat pads are carefully removed through this internal incision. The surgery is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on patient and surgeon preference. The incision is closed with dissolvable sutures.
The procedure is quick, safe, and customized based on the patient’s facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Sometimes, it is combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as Botox for masseter muscles, for additional facial slimming.
Recovery from Buccal Pad Fat Removal
Recovery from Buccal Pad Fat Removal is relatively straightforward. Minimal discomfort is experienced, and the healing of intraoral incisions is fast. Minor swelling in the cheeks lasts about 1-2 weeks. Maximal aesthetic results are generally visible within 2-3 weeks post-surgery.
Because the incisions are inside the mouth, there is no external scarring. Liquid and soft food is permitted after a few hours, but hard foods like raw vegetables, fruits, or nuts should be avoided for at least one week post-surgery.
Ideal candidates for Buccal Pad Fat Removal are healthy non-smokers with full or round cheeks seeking a more contoured facial structure and realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. As a person ages, buccal pad fat can make the face look saggier due to loosening of the layer. The required amount of tissue is separated from the projected cushion, leaving the cheek area looking less puffy and more proportionate.
