Treatment overview

What to expect

Anesthesia: Buccal fat pad reduction is typically performed under local anesthesia with or without sedation. This means you’ll be awake but numb during the procedure.

Incisions: Small incisions are made inside your mouth, usually on the insides of your cheeks. These incisions are hidden, so there are no visible scars on the face.
Fat Removal: The surgeon will locate and carefully remove a portion of the buccal fat pad through the incisions. The amount of fat removed depends on your desired outcome and the surgeon’s recommendations.
Closure: The incisions inside your mouth are usually closed with dissolvable sutures.

After the procedure

Immediate Post-Op: You may experience some swelling and mild discomfort immediately after the surgery. You’ll be given instructions on how to manage this, including dietary recommendations and pain medication if needed.
Recovery: Recovery time varies from person to person, but you can typically expect to return to work and most daily activities within a few days to a week.
Swelling: Swelling is common, and it can take a few weeks to several months for it to completely subside. The final results become more apparent as the swelling diminishes.
Diet: You may be placed on a soft diet for a period to minimize trauma to the healing tissues. This can include foods like soup, yogurt, and mashed potatoes.
Follow-Up Appointments: You’ll have follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your progress and ensure proper healing.
Final Results: The final results of buccal fat pad reduction may take a few months to fully develop. Your cheeks should appear more contoured and sculpted.
Long-Term Maintenance: While the results of buccal fat pad reduction are long-lasting, the aging process will continue, so some changes may occur over time.
