Bichectomy is the surgery of removing the fat pad in the cheek in the mouth. This way, the cheeks look slimmer. The slimmer look of the cheeks also contributes to the relative height of the cheekbones.
It is a simple surgical procedure that can be performed with local anesthesia and takes approximately 45 minutes. Does not require hospitalization. It is a completely scarless surgery as the incision is made inside the mouth
Facial swelling after bichectomy is an expected result. The swelling is expected to go down in 5-7 days.
Bichectomy is not a very painful surgery.. The process becomes very comfortable with oral painkillers.
We recommend that you eat liquid foods on the first day. For the next 10 days, we recommend using the mouthwash that we will give you after each meal.
Bichectomy is an irreversible surgery.. The cheek fat pads removed during the surgery do not form again and do not grow due to weight gain.
