Can I have buccal fat and wisdom teeth removed at the same time?

Asked By:ana590 in Sydney, AU

My dentist has indicated that I will need all my wisdom teeth removed later this year. Can I see a plastic surgeon to have my buccal fat pads removed at the same time? If I'm going to look swollen then I'd rather do it all at once! :) If it's possible, which procedure should I do first?
