Buccal fat pad removal is a facial contouring procedure that reduces fullness in the lower cheeks by removing a selected amount of buccal fat. At Dr. Narender M Cosmetic Skin Care Clinic in Koramangala, Bangalore, each patient is assessed individually to determine whether the procedure is appropriate and how facial proportions may be maintained.
Buccal fat pads are naturally occurring fat deposits in the lower cheeks. In some individuals, these pads are larger, creating a fuller or “baby-faced” appearance. Buccal Fat Pad Removal involves a small incision inside the mouth to remove excess fat, resulting in a slimmer, more defined facial contour. The procedure is minimally invasive, leaving no visible external scars.
Dr. Narender M and his experienced team carefully evaluate your facial structure before performing Buccal Fat Pad Removal. Our approach emphasizes precision and safety, ensuring natural-looking results that complement your unique features. We aim to achieve a slimmer, more contoured appearance without over-reduction or imbalance.
Recovery after Buccal Fat Pad Removal is typically quick, with most patients resuming daily activities within a few days. Minor swelling and discomfort may occur but generally resolve within 1–2 weeks. As the swelling subsides, the final results reveal a slimmer, more defined facial contour. The outcomes are long-lasting and permanent.

Buccal fat pad removal, also called buccal fat removal or cheek reduction surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that removes a selected amount of fat from the cheeks. The procedure is intended to reduce excessive cheek fullness and improve facial contour. Individual suitability depends on facial anatomy, existing cheek volume and treatment goals.
Buccal fat removal may be considered by adults with persistent fullness in the lower cheeks who desire more facial definition. A consultation is important because naturally thin faces, age-related volume loss and certain facial structures may make the procedure unsuitable. The surgeon evaluates facial proportions before recommending treatment.
The buccal fat pad is accessed through an incision inside the mouth, so there is generally no external facial incision from the procedure. Internal healing still requires appropriate oral hygiene and postoperative care. The exact technique and incision placement depend on the individual's anatomy and the surgeon's treatment plan.
Recovery varies between individuals. Swelling and mild discomfort are common during the early healing period and gradually improve. Many patients can return to routine activities within several days, although complete settling of facial contours can take longer. Postoperative instructions regarding diet, oral care and activity should be followed carefully.
The fat removed during buccal fat pad surgery does not normally grow back in the same way. However, facial appearance can change over time because of ageing, weight changes and natural loss of facial volume. A detailed assessment is important before surgery to avoid excessive removal and maintain appropriate facial balance.
