Buccal Fat Removal
I’m Debby. Since high school, I noticed I had
severe baby fat.
I tried using Korean face slimming tools, but they were
ineffective and made my face asymmetrical. This caused me a
lot of appearance anxiety, especially about my upturned
nose. I even tried fat-dissolving injections and Botox, but
since
my issue was excess facial fat, I decided on buccal fat removal.
Thoughtful Consultation and State-of-the-Art Equipment
During my consultation with Dr. Yu Yan-Chen, I found him very attentive and thorough in answering my
concerns. I also reviewed his previous buccal fat removal
cases and was impressed with the results. Combined with
the advanced medical equipment at NAISS CLINIC, I felt
confident choosing Dr. Yu for my surgery.

3-Day Recovery, No Pain No Impact on Daily Life
Post-surgery, I experienced no pain or bruising, just mild swelling and limited mouth opening on the
first day. The doctor advised me to avoid hot or
hard-shell foods and to maintain oral hygiene.
By the third day, I had fully recovered, with no
significant impact on daily life.
I could even apply makeup the day after surgery, and since
the stitches were absorbable, there was no need for a
follow-up visit.

Buccal Fat Removal
Say Goodbye to Baby Fat with Invisible Scars
Buccal fat removal
effectively addresses baby fat and prominent cheek
fullness. During the procedure, small incisions are made on the inner
cheek mucosa on both sides, while
avoiding facial nerves, blood vessels, and salivary
glands. After extracting the appropriate amount of fat, medical-grade
absorbable sutures are used for closure. Buccal fat removal offers
high safety, a short recovery period, invisible scars, and
requires no suture removal, making it easy to eliminate bothersome baby fat without
affecting daily life!

How to Know if Buccal Fat Removal is Right for You?
A muscle-based chubby face is usually caused by
overdeveloped chewing muscles (masseter muscles).
It is more suitable to treat with
Botox injections
to relax the overactive muscles.
A fat-based chubby face is caused by
excess buccal fat pads, making it an ideal case for buccal fat removal surgery.
If the issue is not due to muscles or fat, but instead caused by
your bone structure—such as a wide jawline leading to a square
face—consider
jaw reduction surgery
for improvement.

FAQ
About Buccal Fat Removal
Facial nerve pathways differ for everyone. Buccal fat removal
targets deep fat inside the mouth, with incisions placed on the
oral mucosa. This minimizes contact with facial nerves and
salivary glands, significantly enhancing safety.
Before the surgery, consult with your doctor to determine the
appropriate amount of fat to remove. After tissue recovery, your
skin should not become saggy. For enhanced firmness and
contouring, consider combining the procedure with other
recommended treatments.
Buccal fat removal is a minimally invasive, tailored procedure.
The amount of fat to be removed is carefully evaluated by a
professional doctor. Removing too little may result in
unsatisfactory results, while removing too much could cause
sagging or hollow cheeks. Proper assessment ensures optimal
outcomes.
Buccal fat removal is a minimally invasive procedure with a
short operation time and small incisions. Using medical-grade
absorbable sutures, it requires no stitch removal. Post-surgery,
there is minimal pain and quick swelling reduction, resulting in
a short recovery period with little impact on daily life.
