Bichectomy Surgery
What is Bichectomy Surgery? Do you feel that your face is chubbier than the rest of your body? Do you feel less confident in facing others because of the peculiar shape of your face? Then the Bichectomy surgery is the answer to your worries.
What is Bichectomy?
Bichectomy or buccal fat removal is a facial surgery conducted to improve your facial features, especially the cheeks. Through this cheek thinning surgery, fat pockets located in the cheeks are removed, thereby providing a slender and elongated look to the face.
The main advantage of the surgery is that it eliminates the round look of the face. It is conducted as outpatient surgery, and the recovery period is short. Moreover, no scars will be present on the face after the surgery as the incision is made inside the cheeks.
How Is It Performed?
Bichectomy operation is normally performed under local anesthesia. But if you are undergoing more than one surgery, the doctor will provide you with general anesthesia.
First, the doctor will make an incision inside your cheek. Once done, they will put pressure on the outside of the cheek to expose the buccal fat pad. This fat pad is then cut and removed. The wound is then closed using dissolvable stitches.
How to Care For After the Surgery?
After the surgery, you will be given a mouthwash to prevent possible infection. Though it is a simple surgery, it will take a few days for the incision to heal. In the meantime, you will be put on a liquid diet. Depending on how fast the incision is healing, you can progress to soft food and eventually to the regular diet.
Your face will be swollen for a few days after the surgery. You can apply ice packs to bring down the swelling. You should also make sure that proper oral hygiene is maintained to reduce the chances of infection. It is advisable to undertake salt water rinsing for a week to clean the surgical area. You should also refrain from physical activities at least for a week.
Your doctors will guide you on the post operative care that you should undertake. All follow-up appointments should also be attended without fail.
It will take a few months to see the operation’s result as the cheek will take some time to settle into the new shape.
