Hollywood Cheeks (Bichectomy)

Cheek Shaping



Bichectomy is an aesthetic intervention performed with an easy surgical intervention to reduce the size of the cheeks. Recently, it is one of the most preferred aesthetic procedures by both women and men. Bichectomy is the removal of excess fat on the cheek and the clarification of the cheekbones to make the facial contours more prominent. Bichectomy will reveal the shape of your cheekbones, make the chin and face oval thinner. With a small procedure, it gives your face a slimmer and more youthful look.

Bichectomy is one of the well-known aesthetic interventions that many Hollywood stars have also done. It takes its name from here. The human face is one of the places that attracts the most attention. Round and full cheeks appear in childhood. The main reason for this is the lubrication in the cheek tissues. The size of the cheek has no direct relation with the weight of the person. A person who is very thin may also have much larger cheeks than their body proportion. On the contrary, in someone who is very overweight, the cheek area may be small. Excess fat makes the face appear rounder. Besides, there is no decrease in fat from your face even when you lose weight. Over the years, fat pads located on the face slide down which leads to the face appearing saggy

In general, 40% of the cheek fat tissue is removed from a 1 cm incision made into the mouth. The amount of fat removal differs from person to person.
The best thing about the bichectomy method is that it does not leave any visible scars on the face.
One or two stitches are placed inside the mouth. Oral care should be done regularly and very meticulously. In order for the sutures to be sterile, the patient must gargle for two days. The stitches placed in the cheek disappear within a few days.
