Bichectomy in California

Bichectomy in California

Bichectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove the “bichat balls” located in the cheek area. It is a relatively quick surgery that has gained popularity in recent years, as it gives the face a slimmer, more refined appearance with more defined cheekbones.

The surgery provides a more defined facial contour that can enhance the appearance of the cheekbones.  Once the Buccal fat pads (“Bichet balls”) are removed, they do not grow back.

Who is an ideal candidate for a Bichectomy?

Bichectomy is recommended for men and women with a round face or prominent cheeks due to the volume of the Bichat bags, who wish to refine their facial features and enhance their cheekbones.

This procedure has the best results in patients younger than 45 years old; however, it can be performed on older patients with good skin quality. This is why a preliminary evaluation is necessary.

Results

Although initial results are visible within a few weeks, the final result is fully apparent between 2 and 3 months.

The face looks slimmer, more streamlined, and harmonious, with more pronounced cheekbones and a more defined jawline. The results are permanent, which means you will enjoy a lasting change in your appearance.
