Buccal (Cheek) Fat Reduction
Chunky Cheeks. Chipmunk Cheeks.
No matter what you call them, you don't want them!
What happens when you take out the fat?
Fat pockets in the cheeks make your face look round and fat. Removing these pockets gives your face a chiseled and youthful look.
How we do it!
Dr. Steven Dominguez surgical approach is relatively simple. A small incision is made inside your mouth next to your upper molars, the buccal fat pouch is entered through the buccinator muscle and the fat is removed. The incision is closed with self-dissolving sutures that last about one week.
Where is the surgery performed?
The surgery is perfomed in the office using a local anesthetic, or if you prefer in the hospital under general anesthesia. Either way the surgery takes about one hour.
What can I eat after the surgery?
Your diet for about one week after surgery will consist of non-acidic and non-salty soft foods.
Will I be swollen?
The initial swelling decreases rapidly but some mild swelling may last upto six weeks.
