Risks & Safety Information

Bichectomy (buccal fat removal) removes the buccal fat pads from the cheeks to create a more sculpted, defined facial contour. It is a relatively simple procedure performed under local anesthesia.

  • Temporary swelling and stiffness for 1–2 weeks
  • Asymmetry if unequal amounts of fat are removed
  • Damage to parotid duct or facial nerve branches (rare with experienced surgeon)
  • Over-removal creating an excessively gaunt appearance with aging
  • Infection at intraoral incision sites
✓ Safety Assurance:

The procedure is performed through small incisions inside the mouth, leaving no visible external scars. Precise anatomical knowledge ensures safe identification and protection of the parotid duct and facial nerve.

Recovery Timeline

Days 1–3

Cheek swelling (may look fuller temporarily). Soft diet. Oral rinse after meals.

Days 5–10

Swelling subsides. Sutures dissolve. Resume normal diet gradually.

Weeks 2–6

Cheek definition becomes visible as swelling resolves completely.

Month 3

Final result visible with defined cheekbone contour.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Good Candidates

  • Patients with round, full cheeks despite normal body weight
  • Those seeking more defined cheekbones and facial angles
  • Good overall health with realistic expectations
  • Age 20+ (facial fat distribution should be mature)

Not Recommended For

  • Patients with naturally thin faces (may look too gaunt with aging)
  • Those with facial fat due to being overweight (weight loss recommended first)
  • Patients over 45 (natural facial volume loss with aging may make bichectomy unnecessary or harmful)
  • Active oral infections
