Buccal fat is a technical name for the fat pad that is found between the hollow area of the cheek. While it is a natural phenomenon and gives the cheek the shape of fullness, excess of it can make the cheeks look too full. It is because the size of the buccal fat pad is different with every person. That in turn interferes with the appearance of a person. It is easy to confuse the excessive buccal fat pad with the commonly known case of “baby fat” but they are not the same. Hence, the procedure of buccal fat removal requires assessment by an expert surgeon.
Buccal fat pad in excess is also observed to be inherited from one’s parents at times. It practically makes the middle of the face look fuller (sometimes also commonly known as “chipmunk cheeks”). While the procedure of buccal fat removal is delicate but simple, it is the assessment that is critical in nature. Dr. Parag would also consider the feasibility of the procedure and its required extent keeping mind that in future, the removal of the buccal fat pad should not make a person’s cheeks look hollow.
This procedure is applicable in a majority of people who have an excessively round face and helps them achieve the sharpness in their appearance.
Dr. Parag telang is the right doctor you should reach out to. He is very professional and gives you the right advice. He is also a very good surgeon and will make sure you are taken care of. I have contacted him for a face surgery and I am recovering well.
✱ Opinion / Results may vary person to person.My nephew was born with ear deformity and no one could find a solution for that. Someone then suggested us Dr. Telang and we consulted him last month. I must say he is one of the best doctors!
✱ Opinion / Results may vary person to person.He is exceptionally good at his procedures. He examines thoroughly and provides treatments to treat the underlying cause of the problem. I went for blepharoplasty treatment under him, and he has remarkably restored the youthfulness of the eyes. Every time, I speak of him, my eyes gleam with pride. He is the best.
