What is Bichectomy?

A Bichectomy, or buccal fat removal, is a cosmetic procedure that removes the buccal fat pads from the cheeks to create a more defined and sculpted facial appearance. This procedure is ideal for individuals with naturally fuller cheeks who want to achieve a more contoured, slimmer look to the lower face. By reducing the volume in the cheek area, a bichectomy enhances the definition of the cheekbones and jawline, providing a more refined facial structure.

Benefits of Bichectomy:

  • Enhanced Facial Contours: Achieves a slimmer, more sculpted appearance by reducing fullness in the cheeks.
  • Defined Cheekbones and Jawline: Accentuates natural facial structure, highlighting the cheekbones and jawline for a more defined look.
  • Permanent Results: Once the buccal fat is removed, the results are permanent, providing long-lasting facial enhancement.
  • Boosted Confidence: Enjoy a more contoured and refined facial appearance, helping to enhance your overall self-esteem.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How long does a bichectomy procedure take?
    The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour, and it is usually performed under local anesthesia.

  2. Is recovery from bichectomy painful?
    Recovery is relatively quick and involves minimal discomfort. Some swelling and mild bruising are common but should subside within a few days.

  3. Will there be visible scars after a bichectomy?
    No, the incisions are made inside the mouth, so there are no visible external scars.

  4. How long do the results of bichectomy last?
    The results are permanent, as the buccal fat pads do not regenerate. However, significant weight fluctuations can affect the overall facial appearance.
