Is it a bad idea for a 40 year old to have their buccal fat removed? I wanted to have it done years ago but never went through with it.. now I’m thinking about a neck lift with buccal fat removed but I’ve read to never take fat out of your face...
Answer: Your anatomy and your goals It is possible for someone to be a suitable candidate for a buccal fat removal procedure at the age of 40, provided their anatomy is suitable and they have goals that can be helped with a buccal fat removal procedure. It will be best to consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.

Answer: Necklift and buccal fat removal The decision to remove buccal fat is determined by the need to slim the lower face and not age. In some cases, I remove the buccal fat during a facelift from an external approach. Patients with slim lower faces are not candidates for removal of buccal fat.

Answer: Is 42 too old to have buccal fat removal or a neck lift? A full set of facial photographs from all angles are going to be required to make a determination about how best to proceed. In our practice we do not recommend buccal fat pad removal. A neck lift procedure accomplishes removing fat above and below the platysma muscle in the neck in addition to a platysma plasty. No skin removal is usually needed at age 40.
