About 2.5 months ago I had zygoma and jaw reduction in Korea. Part of the surgery was buccal fat removal. I asked the doctor to do it conservatively. Now my cheeks look puffy and I keep biting inside my cheek.Can the doctor control how much fat is removed? Are revisions normal?.I have a big event in a month, and a local doctor (to which I did not tell the Korea story) just looking at me the first thing he suggested is the buccal fat removal. I have scheduled the procedure 2 weeks b4 my event.
Ive always had a chubby face no matter how skinny or ow much weight I lose. So I had Buccal fat removal 3 months ago. Unfortunately though, I had no results. One side even looks bigger then the other. Are there any other options for a slimmer face?
Recently had buccal reduction ( 3months ) , however tho has caused the muscle that frames my mouth to almost go flat ( not supported ) so I was wondering if the actual buccal pad can be refilled with filler or possibly fat ? Volume loss is also an issue but the movement is more important hence Im Asking if the pad can be refilled as opposed to the area surrounding ?
I got my buccal fat done on january 12th and still to this date there are still hard lumps on the incision site to the right. It's not massively painful but when i press on it, it's just obvious it hasn't healed yet like a very minor pain you get when a wound is healing. Why's it taking so long to heal up? My other side there is still the lump at the incision but I can still tell a difference from before whereas right side it's just not healing up to well
I am 3 months post op today. I still have lumps on the inside of my mouth. No pain. No bleeding. One lump is bigger than the other. Should I be worried? Is this scar tissue? Should I wait a month before getting steroid injections?
Hello, I had my buccal fat pads removed 3 months ago and I hate the result. I'm trying to find a way to fix it permanently. I know fat injections are very unpredictable so I was wondering if I could actually cut two pieces of fat out of somewhere else in my body instead of do a liposuction and place them in the buccal area? What do you think about it? Are fat injections a better option? Ps: I don't want cheek implants
