Buccal Fat Removal in Dubai
Get a Beautiful and Sculpted Facial Contour with Buccal Fat Removal in Dubai
Chubby cheeks might look adorable on a child. As we grow into adulthood, most of us prefer a more sculpted facial appearance. An excess of buccal fat in the cheeks can create a rounder, fuller look that some may find undesirable and aging.
- Are you tired of being teased about your chubby cheeks?
- Do you yearn for a more attractive facial contour?
- Is your face making you look older than you feel?
- Do you feel self-conscious about your chubby cheeks in social situations?
In case you can relate to any of these concerns, then you can achieve the coveted V-line facial shape through a safe and effective buccal fat pad removal in Dubai by Dr. Surindher.
Consult with our board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Surindher, to understand the procedure and cost of buccal fat removal in UAE and if this procedure is for you.
Understanding Buccal Fat Removal Surgery:
Buccal fat removal, also known as cheek fat removal or bichectomy, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce cheek fullness by removing excess fat from the buccal fat pad within the cheeks. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals concerned about having overly full or chubby cheeks, often called the “baby face.”
By thinning out the cheeks, buccal fat removal can create a more hollow appearance, resulting in a slimmer and youthful facial look. The desire for a V-line facial shape is a common goal, as it enhances facial aesthetics.
It’s essential to understand that buccal fat removal is highly personalized since the volume of buccal fat varies from person to person. The buccal fat pad is connected to internal fat layers, requiring surgeons to carefully remove only the excess fat without over-pulling it.
The decision to undergo this procedure is personal, and it’s crucial to have realistic expectations regarding the outcomes. Dr. Surindher will work with you to determine the best approach.
Before / After
Ideal Candidates for Buccal Fat Removal Surgery:
You may be a suitable candidate for cheek fat removal surgery if:
- You have excess fat in your cheek area, resulting in rounder cheeks and a heavier lower face.
- You desire a more sculpted and slimmer facial contour.
- You are in good overall health.
- You have realistic expectations regarding the procedure.
The Buccal Fat Pad Removal Process:
The procedure is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision inside the mouth, in the fold between the teeth and the upper lip. Dr. Surindher carefully excises the excess fat pad under direct visualization, paying close attention to hemostasis. It is crucial to avoid over-pulling the fat. The incision is closed using dissolvable sutures, eliminating the need for suture removal.
Recovery from Buccal Fat Removal Surgery:
Recovery from buccal fat removal surgery in Dubai or Abu Dhabi is generally straightforward. Since the sutures used are dissolvable, there is no need for their removal. Patients may experience some initial swelling, typically subsiding within one to two weeks. Most individuals can return to work within two to three days.
During the initial days following surgery, maintaining a liquid or non-spicy diet is advisable. Using mouth rinses to keep the mouth clean and avoid infection is crucial. Since the incision is inside the mouth, visible scarring is not a concern.
Risks Associated with Buccal Fat Removal Surgery:
Buccal fat removal surgery is considered safe, but like any surgical procedure, it carries some risks. These risks may include bleeding, infection, excessive fat removal, injury to salivary glands or facial nerves, delayed healing, and reactions to anesthesia.
Consulting with an experienced cosmetic surgeon will provide you with a better understanding of these risks, as well as the procedure itself. Choosing a skilled and qualified plastic surgeon is essential to minimize risks and achieve optimal results.
Buccal Fat Removal Cost in Dubai & Abu Dhabi, UAE:
The cost of buccal fat removal in Dubai depends on several factors, including the extent of fat removal, the inclusion of additional procedures, the surgeon’s expertise, anesthesia, and medications.

Results are typically immediately visible, with the cheeks appearing thinner and more sculpted. However, it may take several weeks to a month for the swelling to entirely subside and for the final results to become evident.
Cheek fat reduction or bichectomy is generally considered a safe procedure and is performed under local anesthesia. Dr. Surindher prioritizes patient safety at all times.
Maintaining good mouth hygiene is crucial, as the incision is inside the mouth. We recommend regular mouth rinses, a simple and non-spicy diet in the initial days post-surgery, and sleeping with the head elevated for a few days.
Buccal fat removal can result in a thinner cheek area, particularly in the lower face. It creates an attractive V-shaped facial appearance, enhances self-confidence by eliminating chubby cheeks or a baby face, and provides a youthful facial contour.
Yes, it is possible to eat normally after buccal fat removal. Since the incision is inside the mouth, we recommend a diet of simple, non-spicy foods and liquids during the initial days following the operation.
