Slim Down, Glow Up
Origins Plastic Surgery is located in the heart of Houston, TX. Led by our experienced surgical team, we specialize in Buccal Fat Removal, a procedure designed to enhance facial contours by reducing fullness in the lower cheeks. If you're looking for a more defined and sleek facial appearance, Buccal Fat Removal might just be the treatment for you.
Contour Without The Filter
Buccal Fat Removal, or cheek reduction surgery, is the removal of the buccal fat pad (the naturally occurring fat deposit in the lower cheeks). This procedure aims to slim the cheeks, accentuate the cheekbones, and create a more contoured facial profile. Performed through small incisions inside the mouth, the surgery leaves no visible scars and typically requires minimal downtime. It's perfect for those looking to achieve a more chiseled look without extensive surgery.
Look Sharp, Feel Sharper
Buccal Fat Removal is the perfect solution for patients who want a sleek, chiseled face, even if they don't have the sharpest jawline or naturally sculpted facial features.
Meet Your Match
You are likely a great candidate for Buccal Fat Removal if you are an adult who:
This procedure may not be for you if you have a naturally thin face, as it could lead to a gaunt appearance over time. Your thorough consultation will determine if Buccal Fat Removal will be beneficial for you.
The Prep Talk
A comprehensive consultation at Origins Plastic Surgery is necessary to get to know you and your unique aesthetic goals. During this appointment, we will:
We may advise some preparation before your procedure, like avoiding certain medications that can increase bleeding, refraining from smoking before and after surgery, and arranging for a post-procedure ride home.
Quick + Precise
Anesthesia will be administered to ensure comfort before small incisions are made inside your mouth near your upper molars. The buccal fat pads will be extracted to achieve the desired contour. Then, your incisions are closed using dissolvable sutures. The entire procedure takes about an hour.
Since the incisions are internal, there are no visible scars, and the risk of infection is minimized with proper oral hygiene.
From Full to Defined
Initial results are noticeable once the swelling subsides. Final results become more apparent over the next few months as the cheeks settle into their new contours. You'll notice slimmer, more defined cheeks, enhanced cheekbone prominence, and a more balanced, harmonious facial appearance.
Results are permanent (just make sure you maintain a stable weight).
Stunning, Natural Results
You may notice mild swelling and soreness right after the numbing agent fades. This is common and should resolve within a few days. We will likely recommend you maintain a liquid diet for those first few days as well to avoid irritating the incision sites. Regular rinsing with antiseptic mouthwash is strongly encouraged to prevent infection. Strenuous activities should be avoided for at least a week.
Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to ensure you're healing properly.
