Will 5.5cc of buccal fat removal give me dramatic effects?

Question

Drs, I'd like to know if 5.5 cc is classified as an aggressive form of buccal fat removal and if It will have dramatic effects to my face both now or in the future. I currently weight 167, 6'4 in height.

Matthew Bridges, MD, FACS · Answer

Why such a specific amount?  Are you saying you had this amount removed already?  "5.5cc"  is a pretty good amount.  There is no way to know what excision of that amount will do because it depends on how much was there to start with and your anatomy otherwise.   Need photos as well.

Photographs would be useful to answer your question.  where did you come up with 5.5 cc?  Being that I designed the original Buccal fat procedure, I have considerable experience in this area.  5.5 cc is not unreasonable and the thinner your face is, the more dramatic the results will be.
