This procedure is also called a bichectomy.

Bichat’s fat pad is one of several encapsulated fat masses in the cheek. By removing this fat it is possible to accentuate the cheekbones and achieve a more defined face.

Candidates for this procedure are those with round or oval faces who wish to improve the contour of their faces.

They are extracted through a small incision of 5mm inside the mouth, therefore, there will be no visible scarring.
