What is
buccal fat removal?
The fat pad in the hollow of the cheeks is called the Buccal Fat Pad in medical terminology. Buccal Fat Removal surgery is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery that removes the naturally occurring buccal fat pads and contours the shape to be more in line with the inverted triangle of beauty.
Dr Santosh Bhatia explains that Buccal Fat Removal surgery makes the cheekbones more prominent and gives the patient’s face a more sculpted and angular look. At Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai, this surgery is performed in a safe and effective manner.
Who is an
ideal candidate for a buccal fat removal?

What to expect at the

At Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai, Dr. Santosh Bhatia’s one on one consultations are deep, detailed discussions where he asks the patient about their expectations, desires, goals, understands their medical history, and explains the procedure and risks to them.

What to expect
before the process of buccal fat removal?
Since Buccal Fat Removal is a minimally invasive procedure there aren’t too many preparations necessary before the surgery from the patient’s perspective. Dr. Santosh Bhatia, Board-certified Plastic Surgeon of Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai, may ask you to undergo a couple of routine blood and urine tests in order to establish basic parameters for the surgery.
But other than that, no special preparation is required from the patient’s side.
How is
buccal fat removal performed at vanity cosmetic clinic, Mumbai?
- This surgery begins with the administration of either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with intravenous sedation. The type of anesthesia to be given to the patient is decided by Dr. Santosh Bhatia, Board-certified Plastic Surgeon of Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai. Once the effect of the anesthesia sets in and the patient is completely numb, then the actual procedure begins.
- Buccal Fat Removal surgery is relatively easy to perform and is done in less time as compared to other facial surgeries. Post anesthesia, an incision will be made inside your cheeks. The buccal fat is removed through this incision. The amount of buccal fat to be removed is a call taken by Dr. Santosh Bhatia based on your unique case. He ensures that your cheeks look contoured but not gaunt.
- Once the extraction is complete the incision is closed with sutures. This procedure can be performed in tandem with a surgical face-lift to give the patient a complete facial rejuvenation.
How is
the recovery like after buccal fat removal?
- Dr Santosh Bhatia might put some medical gauze on the site so as to speed up the healing process and control the swelling. Also, you might have compressor bandages so as to support the newly set contour.
- The doctor might prescribe some medications in order to alleviate the pain which is common after the procedure. These must be taken as prescribed in order to have a comfortable recovery.
- In case of non-dissolvable stitches inside the mouth, the doctor might advise a liquid diet for a few days so as to not disturb the stitches in the mouth.
- The stitches will be removed according to the doctor’s analysis of the healing process.
- Routine follow-ups must be taken with Dr Santosh Bhatia as it helps to keep a track of the healing process as well as result visibility.
Buccal Fat Removal is a straightforward cosmetic surgery that requires minimal downtime. The recovery process is also simple and patients typically don’t experience anything more than minor pain or discomfort.
Dr. Santosh Bhatia, Board-certified Plastic Surgeon of Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai, advises patients to go on a liquid diet for the first week or so while they recover. Rest is another vital element to a successful recovery. The swelling will subside slowly, so give your body enough time to recover.
You may be given special medicated mouthwashes to stave off any chances of infection. As your swelling and discomfort fade, you may resume your normal routine.
