Real Results

*Individual results may vary. Images are unedited actual patient results.
Recovery is typically smooth, with mild swelling and bruising appearing in the first few days and resolving within 7–10 days. Most patients can resume light daily activities within a week, while more strenuous exercise or facial treatments should be avoided for 2–3 weeks to ensure optimal healing.
No. Our surgeons remove buccal fat conservatively and with precision, preserving natural mid-face volume. The goal is subtle contouring that enhances cheekbone definition while maintaining your unique facial balance and avoiding an overdone appearance.
Discomfort is minimal and manageable. Local anesthesia ensures comfort during the procedure, and post-operative care instructions, along with prescribed medications, help reduce any temporary soreness or tenderness.
Results are long-lasting. Buccal fat does not typically return after removal, though natural aging and weight changes may subtly affect facial fullness over time. Touch-ups are rarely necessary but can be discussed if desired.
Absolutely. Many patients combine it with Cheek Augmentation, Chin Implants, or facial fat transfer to create a balanced, harmonious look. Our specialists provide a tailored plan to achieve the best overall facial contour.
Initial contouring is visible within days, but final definition emerges over 4–6 weeks as swelling resolves completely and tissues settle.
