I highly recommend Dr. Joe at Hers Clinic. He is a ENT doctor and does about 500 buccal fat removal in a week. I was so nervous and he made sure I was comfortable (feeling no pain) as he went along. Dr. Joe explained every step throughout the process, which is very reassuring. His main thing was that, the suture needed to be done tightly to hold & lift the face afterwards, which I'm glad he took precise care to do. The swelling wasn't so bad afterwards. But I did have swollen cheeks for about 6 weeks and the suture was completely flatten after 2 month; which he did explained this to me. I'm so happy with my result, in fact, I came back to see him for the 'neck tite' procedure just last week. I had put on some weight and my double chin was bothering me. There is slight bruising down my neck at the moment and tenderness, but not bothersome at all. Go see Dr. Joe!
After months of research I finally did my buccal fat removal at HERS Clinic in BKK. Upon consultation, Dr. Joe explained the procedure and his technique to avoid sagging of the cheeks after the surgery. He was very informative! Whilst preparing he sprayed a numbing agent to my mouth and after a few minutes he injected the anesthesia! I didn't feel any pain at all! He was explaining what he was doing whilst on procedure so I won't feel nervous ( yes I was nervous) The surgery took an hour to remove both of the buccal fat. There was a little swelling but not obvious that I had surgery. Afterwards, they placed me to the recovery room. After an hour they allowed me to go home,No spicy food and hot food, no alcohol and smoking for weeks! No extreme activities! Updated on 4 Sep 2019: 1st day after surgery-was a bit swollen but i still wear a mask. The night after my surgery I felt a little pain since the anaesthesia is wearing off but I gone after the meds. I’m taking my meds on time. I was advised that I can take normal foods (though I’m still taking soft foods) but you need to gargle every after meal. I visited a night market nearby. 2nd - 4th day after surgery was my swollen days but no pain.. still taking my meds and eating soft foods , mouthwash after meal, I go outside to enjoy the city. 4th day is my final check up to the clinic to check the stitches. All were fine and healing.I was advised that my swelling is normal for 5-7 days and will completely gone after a month or two. They’ve given additional meds since I misplaced some of my meds. 5th-6th after surgery- enjoyed the city! Though I still need to wear mask. Swelling reduced on the 5th day. No more square-ish face and I can see my face is less round and cheeks are prominent! I’m happy!
Best surgery I've done! Thank you Dr Joe and the lovely staffs at Hers Clinic. I've always been skeptical about the results of buccal fat removal but it was so effective in removing my chubby cheeks. The best thing of the whole experience is that the surgery was painless! Even the anaesthetic injection wasn't painful because he used a numbing spray before injecting the anaesthesia! It was even better than going to the Dentist! Dr Joe is really experienced in buccal fat removal and if you're finding a surgeon to do buccal fat removal in Bangkok, look no further. I've done my research and I am really certain that he is the best doctor for buccal fat removal since he does like 70% of all buccal fat removal surgeries in Bangkok. Definitely worth the trip of flying to Bangkok!! Plus, Bangkok is such a fun place to travel and it is really safe too. You won't imagine how friendly the people in Bangkok are! No wonder they call it the "land of smiles"! It's been 5 months post op and my results keep getting better. No more chipmunk cheeks and no saggy skin at all. I've read a couple of reviews of sagging skin after the buccal fat was removed, but I think the reason for that is because the incision wasn't closed tightly. That's what Dr Joe told me! He said that after the buccal fat is removed, the surgeon has to sew the suture as tightly as possible. Some heads up! The only thing I regret is not doing this surgery earlier!
Hi. According to your photo , the cause of your double chin is from 2 factors. First, subcutaneous fat that can correct by liposuction. Second, the thin/sagging skin that can correct by using laser tightening. HERS clinic uses necktite technology to correct these.
Hi. According to your photo , Your undefined jawline causes by mainly 3 factors.1. Receding chin 2. Fat and sagging skin at double chin3. Big buccal fat I suggest to buccal fat removal with double chin liposuction with necktite with chin augmentation to make your face more defined jawline.
Hi. According to your photo , I suggest to do buccal fat removal to make your cheek smaller especially when you smile and this can prevent a jowl in the future. Furthermore, Double chin liposuction with necktite can correct your double chin and make your jawline defined.
Hi. According to your photo , I think you have the problem of chubby cheeks especially at the front of your cheeks where the buccal fat place. Many patients lose their weight more than 10 kgs. but the buccal fat still wouldn't gone. However, you have a history of clenching your jaw that can enlarge your masseter muscles. Another advantage of BOTOX masseter injection in bruxism patient is the BOTOX will weaken your masseter muscles and you will stop clenching jaw. In my opinion , you're a good candidate for both buccal fat removal and BOTOX masseter injection.
Hi , According to your photo , your problem is caused by both buccal fat and masseter muscles. The chubby cheek when you smile is caused by the buccal fat. I suggest to do buccal fat removal. By my surgical technique : After taking the fat out , you'll not have a saggy cheek because I'll suture your cheek muscles for tightening your cheek. Another advantage of buccal fat removal is to make your face more symmetry. If you see your smile photo , you would see that both sides are not the same. This problem is caused by the different size and position of the buccal fat each side. Your square shaped face is caused by big masseter muscles that can be reduced by using BOTOX injection. Hope you get an idea for solving your problem.
