What is Bichectomy?
Buccal fat removal is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves the removal of fat pads in the cheeks, known as buccal fat pads. These pads of fat are located in the lower part of the cheeks, just beneath the cheekbones, and can create a rounded, chubby facial appearance.
Can buccal fat be removed naturally?
Buccal fat pads are a natural part of the anatomy of the face and are composed of adipose tissue. It is not possible to remove buccal fat pads through natural methods alone, such as exercise or diet. While weight loss may lead to a reduction in overall body fat, it is not possible to target the reduction of buccal fat specifically through natural means. Buccal fat removal in Turkey is currently the most cost-effective method for reducing buccal fat pads
