Buccal Fat Removal Procedure
The surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia or sedation as a day-care procedure. Small incisions are made inside the mouth, allowing access to the buccal fat pads. The desired amount of fat is carefully removed to achieve balanced and natural facial contours.
Since all incisions are inside the mouth, there are no visible external scars.
Dr. Nikhil Angre uses a conservative and customized approach to ensure the face remains youthful and harmonious while avoiding an overly hollow appearance.
Recovery After Buccal Fat Removal
Most patients experience mild swelling and discomfort for a few days following surgery. Swelling gradually subsides over several weeks, and facial contours continue to improve as healing progresses.
