Buccal Fat Removal

Buccal Fat Removal

At Revitalize Cosmetic Surgical Arts, Dr. Quintero understands that many women seek a more refined, sculpted facial appearance. Buccal fat removal is an excellent solution for those who feel their face appears rounder or fuller than desired due to excess fat in the cheeks. This procedure is designed to slim the mid-face area, highlight the cheekbones, and enhance the overall facial contours for a more defined and elegant look.

What is Buccal Fat Removal?

Buccal fat removal, also known as buccal lipectomy, is a cosmetic procedure targeting the lower cheeks’ buccal fat pads. These fat pads can give the face a rounded or “chubby” appearance, even if a woman maintains a healthy weight. The goal of the procedure is to remove or reduce the size of the buccal fat pads to create a more contoured and sculpted facial profile. By slimming the cheeks, buccal fat removal helps to enhance the definition of the cheekbones and jawline, resulting in a more sophisticated and elegant facial structure.

Benefits of Buccal Fat Removal for Women

Buccal fat removal offers several benefits for women seeking a more refined facial appearance:

  • Slimmer Cheeks: The procedure reduces the fullness in the cheeks, creating a more defined and contoured look.
  • Enhanced Facial Features: By slimming the mid-face area, the cheekbones and jawline become more prominent, enhancing overall facial harmony.
  • Increased Confidence: Many women feel more confident and satisfied with their appearance after achieving a more sculpted and refined look.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Once the buccal fat is removed, the results are permanent, giving you a more contoured appearance for years to come.
  • Minimally Invasive: The incisions are made inside the mouth, meaning there are no visible scars after the procedure.

The Procedure

Buccal fat removal is a minimally invasive procedure that is typically performed under local anesthesia. Dr. Quintero makes small incisions inside the mouth, usually along the inner lining of the cheeks. He carefully removes or reduces the buccal fat pads through these incisions to create a more contoured facial shape.

The procedure generally takes about 30 to 60 minutes and involves minimal discomfort. Since the incisions are inside the mouth, there are no visible scars, and the recovery process is typically quick and easy.

What to Expect

During your consultation, Dr. Quintero will assess your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine whether buccal fat removal is the best option for you. The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, so you can return home the same day.

Recovery Process

After buccal fat removal, it’s common to experience some swelling and mild discomfort in the cheeks, which typically subsides within a week or two. Since the incisions are made inside the mouth, maintaining good oral hygiene is important to prevent infection. Dr. Quintero’s team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Most women can return to normal activities within a few days, with the full results visible as the swelling subsides.

Is Buccal Fat Removal Right for You?

Buccal fat removal is an excellent option for women who are bothered by the appearance of full or round cheeks and want to achieve a more defined, sculpted look. This procedure may be right for you if you’re seeking a slimmer facial appearance and want to enhance the natural contours of your cheekbones and jawline. A consultation with Dr. Quintero is the best way to determine if buccal fat removal aligns with your specific goals and facial anatomy.
