What Buccal Fat Removal Can Improve

This treatment targets:

  • “Chipmunk cheeks” or round facial fullness
  • Heavy mid-lower face
  • Lack of definition along the cheek–jaw transition
  • Desire for slimmer, more sculpted contours
  • Facial imbalance caused by excess buccal fat

Benefits of Buccal Fat Removal

  • Slimmer, more defined facial shape
  • Subtle contour enhancement
  • Long-lasting results
  • No visible external scars (incision inside the mouth)
  • Improved cheekbone and jawline definition
  • Minimal downtime

This procedure is a popular choice for those who prefer subtle, natural slimming.

How the Procedure Works

  • Local anesthesia is applied inside the cheek
  • A small incision is made inside the mouth
  • A conservative amount of buccal fat is removed
  • Incision is closed with dissolvable sutures
  • No external scars or marks
  • Recovery is typically quick with mild swelling

Selena’s approach avoids over-removal to maintain long-term facial fullness as you age.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Mild swelling for a few days
  • Soft diet recommended initially
  • Avoid strenuous exercise temporarily
  • Results become more noticeable as swelling subsides
  • Full contour improvement appears over 1–3 months

You’ll receive clear aftercare guidance in English.
