Buccal Fat Removal
Selective removal of buccal fat to refine the lower cheek, offered only when the face is unlikely to look gaunt as you age.
Overview
Bichectomy reduces a deep fat pad in the lower cheek. It is a small operation with a permanent change, which is why it is easy to overdo. Younger, already lean faces can look hollow later. The surgeon checks bite, facial width, and whether contour would be better served by weight, fillers, or leaving the pad alone. Avenia Global will not sell this as a celebrity shortcut. Recovery is usually shorter than a facelift, but swelling hides the true hollow for weeks.
Who it may be suitable for
- Adults with fuller lower cheeks after the surgeon has thought about long-term facial thinning
- Patients who can accept an inside-the-mouth scar and a soft diet for a few days
Techniques
- Intra-oral buccal fat reduction
- Conservative volume — not a maximal hollow

Face review
Photographs in several expressions, not only a posed still.
02
Short procedure
Often day-case with a soft-diet briefing.
Recovery
- Cheek swelling can look worse before it looks slimmer. Final contour is late, not at day three.
Expected process
- 1. Share photos, medical history, and travel constraints with a coordinator
- 2. A clinician reviews suitability before any itinerary is confirmed
- 3. Transfers, hotel nights, and appointments are arranged if you choose a coordinated package
Is this treatment right for me?
This is not a medical diagnosis. Final suitability requires professional evaluation.

Questions
No. It changes one pad. It does not lift skin or treat a heavy neck.
