What is Buccal Fat Removal Surgery?

Buccal Fat Removal, or Buccal Lipectomy, involves the surgical removal of the buccal fat pads from the cheeks. This procedure is ideal for creating a more chiseled facial profile by reducing the volume in the lower cheeks, often resulting in enhanced cheekbones and a more mature appearance.

The Procedure
