Buccal Pad Fat Removal is performed under general or local anesthesia, recommended as per the patient’s condition. After the administration of anesthesia, about 1/2 cm incision is given at the buccal mucosa, which is inside the oral cavity of the patient. This hides the scar so that the results look completely natural.

This incision acts as the site to extract fat from the cheeks. The pressure is applied to the outer surface of the cheeks, pushing the buccal fat pad to protrude inside the mouth. The required of tissue is extracted from this protruded pad, leaving the cheek size reduced and proportionate to face.

The incision is then closed with the help of sutures and left to heal on its own, which usually happens in just a few days.
