Buccal Fat Removal in Delray Beach and Fort Lauderdale, FL

If you are after a slimmer, more contoured, and chiseled look and want to reduce prominent cheeks, our plastic surgeons at Inspire Aesthetics in Fort Lauderdale and Delray Beach, FL can help. We offer a buccal fat removal procedure that specifically targets the cheek area to create a more sculpted look. In this surgery, our surgeon will remove the buccal fat pad tissue, which is naturally found in the cheek hollows. This procedure helps to define your natural cheekbones and will enhance your natural beauty.

The best candidates for buccal fat removal are those patients who are unhappy with chubby cheeks and feel that their face may be rounder and less defined because of the fullness of their cheeks.

During your consultation, your plastic surgeon will examine your cheeks and discuss the removal of the buccal fat tissue. The buccal fat pad varies in size with every patient, so a unique assessment is given. The surgeon will administer the appropriate anesthesia for the surgery. During surgery, there will be a small incision made on the inside of the mouth as well as on the inside of your cheek. The buccal fat pad will be removed and then the incisions will be closed with sutures.

Following buccal fat removal surgery, the recovery period is generally quite short. Results can be seen immediately, there will typically be some swelling of the cheeks. As this subsides, the results will be a lot more noticeable.
