Quote of Dr. Berat Clinic
Buccal fat removal is a cosmetic surgical procedure done to reduce the fullness of the lower cheeks. This is done on buccal fat pads, which are small, rounded portions of fat in the bottom part of the cheeks. The following are the key attributes of this surgery:
Aesthetic: It is done for contour and angles of the face by removing fullness from the cheeks.
Balance: It enhances the balance of symmetry and definition in the face.
Procedure
Surgical Approach: The procedure is often carried out via a small incision inside the mouth-in the buccal mucosa-and does not leave any visible scars.
Outpatient: Commonly under local anesthesia, although general anesthesia may be used for selected cases.
Recovery
Swelling and Bruising: Very common; may persist for several weeks.
Diet and Care: Soft foods and good oral hygiene during recovery.
Results: Initial results are seen once the swelling goes down completely, while the final results will be seen in several months.
Suitability
Candidates: Suitable candidates include those that are in good health, know what they want, and have a round or full face they would want to slim down.
Consultation: Go for consultation with the board-certified plastic surgeon. He will tell you whether or not you are a good candidate and will discuss the risks and benefits.
Considering this surgery, it's relevant to discuss your goals and also any other concerns you may have with a qualified surgeon to determine if this is the right choice to make.

Yes, buccal fat extraction provides a permanent reduction in facial fat volume. The procedure involves the removal of a specific amount of fat pads, leading to long-lasting results.
The recovery period for buccal fat extraction is typically a few days to a week. Patients may experience swelling and bruising initially, but these effects subside gradually. It's essential to follow post-operative care instructions provided by the surgeon to ensure a smooth recovery.
