Do you feel like your cheeks are too full, giving your face a rounded appearance? Bichectomy surgery can help by removing the Bichat's buccal fat pads - clusters of fatty tissue under the cheeks that serve no function in adults. This procedure can refine and slim your face, defining your jawline and highlighting your cheekbones for a more attractive look. Plus, the results are permanent, as fat cannot accumulate in the area once the Bichat's pads are removed.
Bichectomy is performed under local anesthesia. A small incision, about 7 mm, is made inside the mouth near the upper wisdom tooth. The Bichat's pad is then carefully extracted, either totally or partially. Once both fat pads are removed, symmetry is ensured, and a small drain is inserted to prevent inflammation and ensure a smooth recovery. The surgery takes approximately 30 minutes and it is one of the simplest and safest cosmetic procedures.

In return, our patients benefit from free consultations (normally €50–100), minimal waiting times (less than a week compared to the usual 2–3 months), and exclusive discounted rates—typically 10–20% lower than standard prices.
