The procedure
What isbuccal fat removal?
Buccal fat removal is a precise, minimally invasive procedure that refines the shape of your mid face by reducing the buccal fat pad which is a deep, naturally occurring pocket of fat that sits between cheekbone and jaw.
Because this fat sits deep in the mid face and doesn't respond to diet or exercise, no amount of training or clean eating will ever shift it.
Cheekbones that finally show, a slimmer profile, and contours that look like you were simply born with them.

The benefits
What this actuallychanges for you
No visible scarring
Every incision is made inside the mouth, so nothing shows on your face.
Long-lasting results
Once the buccal fat is reduced, those fat cells don't come back, so the slimming effect is long-lasting.
Quick recovery
Most people are back to their normal routine within 4-5 days, with mild early swelling that settles as you heal.
Pairs beautifully with other procedures
Refining the cheeks alongside other facial work creates balanced, harmonised results that look effortless and whole.
A one-time alternative to fillers
Unlike fillers that fade and need topping up, buccal fat removal is done once. No repeat appointments, no recurring cost.
Am I a candidate?
You may be a suitable candidateif this sounds familiar
Not every full cheek is buccal fat, and not every face benefits from reducing it. The right candidate has genuine buccal fullness in the mid face and enough underlying structure for the definition to read naturally once it's reduced. That's exactly what your consultation establishes.
- You have naturally fuller cheeks that remain despite maintaining a healthy weight
- You want a slimmer, more defined lower face
- You've lost weight everywhere else and the cheeks stayed full
- You've tried dieting and exercise, and the mid face never changed
- You're a busy professional wanting maximum impact with minimal disruption, a quick recovery, several concerns addressed at once
Not sure whether it's buccal fat? That's the first thing your consultation confirms.

Before & after
The difference is inthe mid face
Actual comparisonMid face & jawline
Drag to compare
Look at the mid face and the line running from cheekbone to chin. The change is structural. The same face, more clearly defined.
The mid face
Fullness through the cheek softens, so the face reads slimmer from the front.
The cheekbone
Structure that was already there becomes visible once the pad above it is reduced.
The jawline
The line from cheekbone to chin sharpens, clearest in the profile views.
