Buccal Fat Reduction Procedure

The cheek reduction procedure involves making small incisions inside the mouth, between the cheeks and gums. Dr. White can access the buccal fat pads through these incisions and remove the necessary fat to reshape the cheeks.

After completing the procedure on one side, Dr. White will carefully repeat the process on the other cheek to ensure balanced and symmetrical results. Depending on the complexity of the surgery, it can be performed under either general or local anesthesia.

In some cases, cheek reduction may be combined with other procedures, such as a neck lift, liposuction, or chin augmentation, to achieve a more comprehensive facial recontouring.

Recovery And Results

Recovery after buccal fat reduction is typically quick for most patients. Since the incisions are made inside the mouth, they tend to heal rapidly, and any swelling in the cheeks usually subsides within two weeks or even sooner. Most individuals experience minimal downtime after the procedure, often feeling well enough to resume normal activities within a day.

The results of this relatively minor treatment can be impressive. It leads to a noticeable enhancement in the overall shape and contours of the lower face. Patients frequently report increased confidence and satisfaction with their appearance following the procedure.

Additionally, following post-operative care instructions provided by Dr. White can further optimize recovery and results, ensuring a smooth healing process. If you’re considering buccal fat reduction, you can look forward to a rejuvenated facial profile and a refreshed sense of self.
