Cheek surgery or BICHAT POCKET EXTRACTION is a procedure indicated for people who wish to reduce the bulge in their cheeks secondary to the presence of these fat pads that produce a too round face, thus contributing to a facial imbalance.

The growth of these fat pads is not directly related to the body weight of the person; the structural function they have is insignificant so their removal is not accompanied by substantial anatomical and functional sequelae.

Benefits
  • Better defines the face by slimming the cheeks.
  • Noticeably changes the facial profile contributing to a harmonious and attractive face.
About the procedure
  • It is an outpatient procedure, performed under local anesthesia and sedation.
  • The duration of the procedure is 15 to 30 minutes.
  • It consists of making an incision inside the cheek to remove the excess of these fat pads.
  • Maximum care is given to important structures such as muscles, blood vessels and nearby nerves.
Recovery
  • It is possible to resume work and physical activity the day after the procedure.
  • The definitive results are appreciated in a time that varies between 2 and 4 weeks.
