How to reverse a bad bichectomy? (Photo)

August 23, 2022
Asked By:Intuitive80606 in Barcelona, Catalunya, España

Hi, I have had a bichectomy a year ago. I ended up whit a hole on one side, that generated that side of my face to collapse. It looks like it has melted. My question is... would a fat transfer procedure restore the volume AND serve as a new support to restore the balance of my face? or there is no way to reverse that? Attached is a picture. Looks like they have removed the whole bichat pad, when they shouldnt. I would appreciate your replays since it has been a rough year for me. Many thanks!

Based on your front view, you are a good candidate for buccal fat reduction. It's hard to tell about botox to masseter without more pics and info. However, you can always stage them since they address different portions of the face
