Some people have full or rounded cheeks well into adulthood, even though facial volume typically decreases after adolescence. If you feel that excess fullness in your cheeks is affecting your appearance, buccal fat removal may be an ideal option to achieve more sculpted facial contours. This procedure can help you feel confident in your profile and bring definition to your natural features.
Our expert team has been helping patients enhance their facial structure for over 20 years. We’re proud to be one of Vancouver’s top destinations for safe, effective facial aesthetic surgery.
Leading Buccal Fat Removal Surgeon in Vancouver
The Buccal Fat Removal Procedure
Buccal fat removal is performed right in our office using local anesthesia. A small incision is made inside the mouth, allowing access to the buccal fat pads without any visible scarring on the outside of the face. The entire procedure generally takes between 60 and 75 minutes, and optional sedation with nitrous oxide or oral medication is also available.
Buccal Fat Removal Pricing
The cost of buccal fat removal typically ranges from $3,900 to $4,900. The price of your surgery will depend on your treatment plan. Many patients opt to combine this procedure with other facial enhancements, such as eyelid surgery, a facelift, or a brow lift, for more dramatic results.
