Preparing for Your Buccal Fat Removal

Buccal fat removal is a procedure designed to remove the pads of fat in the cheek hollows that can contribute to a rounded or chubby appearance in the face. Even if you’re otherwise slim and fit, it’s normal to have rounded cheeks as a result of genetics that can make you look heavier than you are. In this case, buccal fat removal is a great option. If your face is naturally thinner and more contoured, though, buccal fat removal can cause a thin or gaunt appearance as you age, so Dr. Sadati can determine your best options for face thinning during your consultation.

Dr. Sadati’s Buccal Fat Removal Method

Buccal fat removal can be performed on its own or as part of a facelift procedure. If performed on its own, Dr. Sadati will perform incisions inside the mouth to gain access to the fat pads and remove them. This can be performed using local anesthesia and twilight sedation. If buccal fat removal is performed in tandem with a facelift, the fat pads can often be removed without needing an incision inside the mouth. During your private consultation with Dr. Sadati, you’ll discuss your best options for buccal fat removal using Dr. Sadati’s signature techniques.

What to Expect During Your Recovery

Performed on its own, buccal fat removal doesn’t require extensive downtime like many other facial cosmetic procedures. Generally, you can expect some swelling and discomfort which can be managed with prescribed medications. You’ll be instructed to rest and stay home from work and school for around one week. It can take around one week for swelling to fully subside, but you’ll begin to see results soon after your surgery. It can take up to two months for your final results to emerge as the cheeks settle into their new contours. The result is a thinner, more defined look in the midface with natural-looking, refreshed results.
