Buccal Fat Removal For Women Before & After
*individual results may vary
Chubby cheeks, commonly known as “chipmunk cheeks”, very often contribute to overly rounded cheek appearance. Chubby cheeks very often mask the contours of a beautiful upper cheekbone and lower face. Chubby cheeks can make a person look chubby even though they may have a normal body weight and/or thin body. Enlarged cheeks makes the face look wider or “fat” especially when smiling. Very often, chubby cheeks cannot not be reduced in size by simply losing weight with diet and/or exercise.
Buccal Fat Removal is a minimally invasive plastic surgery procedure that removes the fullness of the chubby cheeks. Dr. Mesa specializes in buccal fat removal under local anesthesia (without sedation or general anesthesia) to achieve a slimmer facial appearance.

"I am thrilled with my buccal fat removal results and I haven't even seen the final results yet! After reading several fantastic reviews about Dr. Mesa, I decided to schedule my consultation. Dr. Mesa and his staff are extremely professional and answered my questions thoroughly. His New Jersey office (he also has an office in New York) is state of the art. I was able to view pics of others who also received the buccal fat removal. Dr. Mesa and I decided that I would best benefit from Buccal Fat removal in combination with Lipo of the neck. I scheduled the appointment for my procedure, which took place right in his office..."

"Chubby face gone forever! I always hated my face. In general I avoid group pictures (because I cannot edit them to make my face slimmer!!!), and it stresses me out whenever I go out with my friends because I’m afraid they’ll take selfies with me. Now after my procedure, which Dr. Mesa carefully took out all the buccal fat, I smile at myself whenever I look at the mirror because I love my face!"

Buccal fat pad removal can be combined with various other cosmetic procedures. Dr. Mesa usually performs cheek augmentation with soft tissue fillers to enhance the results of the buccal fat removal surgery. Other cosmetic plastic surgery procedures such as neck liposuction, eyelid lift (blepharoplasty), facial skin tightening, or other treatments can be performed at the same time.
When you’re under the care of Dr. Mesa, he performs a thorough evaluation of your facial structure, and may recommend added procedures to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. However, he will never pressure you to undergo a surgery or procedure you don’t need, which often occurs in other surgical practices. You may choose to undergo additional treatments during your buccal fat removal, including enhancing your cheekbone size with dermal fillers or implants or surgically crafting a more defined jawline.
