FAQs
Cheek reduction, also known as bichectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of the cheeks by removing excess fat pads known as Bichat’s fat pads. It can create a more contoured and slimmer appearance to the face, highlighting the natural facial features and improving facial harmony.
Ideal candidates for cheek reduction surgery are individuals with round or overly full cheeks who desire a more defined and sculpted facial appearance. They should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. A consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon is necessary to determine if cheek reduction surgery is suitable for you.
Cheek reduction surgery typically involves making small incisions inside the mouth to access and remove the Bichat’s fat pads. The procedure is performed under local or general anaesthesia, and the incisions are usually closed with dissolvable sutures. The technique may vary depending on the surgeon’s preferences and the patient’s specific needs.
Recovery time varies, but typically patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area for the first week or two after the surgery. Most individuals can resume normal activities within a week or two, but strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks. The plastic surgeon will provide specific post-operative instructions to promote proper healing and minimise complications.
Like any surgical procedure, cheek reduction surgery carries certain risks and potential complications. These may include infection, bleeding, scarring, asymmetry, changes in facial sensation, or unfavourable aesthetic outcomes. It is important to choose a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to minimise these risks. Discussing the potential complications with your surgeon and following their pre and post-operative instructions can help ensure a successful outcome.
