Got Buccal Fat Removal

[Swole bravo]

Hello, I got buccal fat pad removal today. The total amount of removal was 7cc total. 3.5cc in each cheek. I was hoping for more, but it's an average amount that should help the ogee curve. Below are photos of fat and room. I'm currently slightly swollen and tired, but I will update pictures in this thread of my cheek. Right after procedure When puckering my cheeks, my cheek is much more hollow then it was before hand obviously. Resting, it's subtle difference but not entirely 4 hours after the procedure because I'm swollen now.

 

[Tallooksmaxxer]

do you think you will have hollow cheeks?

 

[khvirgin]

wdym hoping for more
arent you the one that can choose the amount?

He took out all of the buccal fat pad in the lower region of my fullness which was 3-3.5cc. I asked him to.

 

[khvirgin]

He took out all of the buccal fat pad possible. I asked him to. I was hoping i had bigger buccal fat pads haha.

How much have you paid?
How did you find the surgeon? Like a lot of surgeons I checked have not this listed but it's a fairly easy and normal procedure

 

[Swole bravo]

do you think you will have hollow cheeks?

I had hollow cheeks before hand. But only when puckering with right lighting as I had a lot of cheek fat. I think the buccal fat pads removal will help. Don’t know for sure. But if it doesn’t help, no one else will waste money like I did lol.

Mirin' looksmaxxing progress my bro, ascension is happening.

I paid around 2,500. I found him from google. He's a top doctor in my area, double board certified. I met him when i wanted to do Upper eye lid exposure and he was black pilled on male aesthetics. It's an easy procedure. The numbing took longer then the surgery. It was about 10-15 minutes for the surgery. He does them alot for men he told me.

The amount of fat he took out was only in the buccal region. 3-3.5 cc each. Nothing crazy. He even told me, the results would be very to subtle. In terms of the aging, I can't really say I will age bad. It's the superficial fat pads that cause us you look hold, age badly. While this is a hidden fat deep in the cheek. But only time can tell. And, if i do start to age, fat transfer.

Also guys in there.

And someone also posted one of those cases even on Looksmax. The guy looked like shit in 9 months after the removal.

 

[stressftw]

U guys should follow his example and do exactly the opposite
Never mess with your fat pads unless extreme

I hope OP ascended though, i will never twist against a forum member. Specially the ones who have balls to go for procedures

Hope so.

Again, well, i hope you will age well, but...

It's the superficial fat pads that cause us you look hold, age badly.

WRONG. Buccal fat is DEEP FAT PADS which literally hold the frame of your face.

While this is a hidden fat deep in the cheek. But only time can tell. And, if i do start to age, fat transfer.

Bad news, fat transfer into the buccal fat compartment is an experimental procedure: hard to find, probably extremely expensive, and most probably the results will look off.

I don't know if we are talking about the same guy but he didn't look like shit

 

[Artemis]

I don't know if we are talking about the same guy but he didn't look like shit

I saw only 1 example reposted here. And the guy IMO looked terrible after the removal: completely gaunt.

Then someone, maybe Amnesia, was mentioning the guy had narrowish jaw or sth. But regardless, the example was terrible. Idk how anyone could find it "ok"...

What do you mean by that brother. I don't think Buccal Fat pad surgery is a one size fits all. It's really only useful in people with chubby cheeks and low body fat and good BMI. You need to have good forward growth as well so the skin acts as a sheet on the bones. I didn't have all my my Buccal taken out. Only in the area of fullness.

 

[Artemis]

Found the guy.

The patient did not like the outcome in the end:

1.5 Years Later - This procedure ruined my face

I had nothing short of a fantastic experience getting the Buccal Fat Removal procedure at Dr. Mesa's office. First and foremost, the results of the surgery...

I think that i remember you from your username now, you changed your pfp that's why i havent reminded right away, you indeed had very chubby cheeks with low body fat, it probably and hopefully will benefit you alot. Also as far i can remember you have a robust bone structure and very good bones. Majority of ppl that go through this procedure doesnt fit your criteria at all and end up looking gaunt and sick because they dont have bones to pull the tradeoffs of removing bichet balls.

You are the guy that wanted custom cheek implants right?

You can't even see half of his face

Yup that's me. I changed my PFP lol. I have robust bone structure but just very fatty cheeks even at high bodyfat. My mother has her buccal fat pads still and has alot of facial fullness. Alongside my father. So that's why i took the trade off and got the surgery. Yup, I'm the guy getting infra designed by RSM lol.

This is a based comment. Removing buccal fat pads is something with alot of tradeoffs, specially long-term.

"Fat tissue can communicate with other organs from afar, sending out tiny molecules that control gene activity in other parts of the body, according to a new study. This novel route of cell-to-cell communication could indicate fat plays a much bigger role than previously thought."

Fat cells should be preserved on your face, because they play a major role in youth that we still don't fully know. Shrinking them by leaning out whilist mantaining them there is the best approach. Cutting the shortcut like some people do, even celebrities, is a shot in the foot.

OP is an outlier because he's almost by his 30's and still had alot of buccal fat whilist lean with a robust bone structure, this can end up benefiting him.

Hope everything turns out well for you bro, better going for removing buccal fat than risking on that implant idea.

 

[Deleted member 22623]

It's literally impossible to find any conclusive answers if this procedure is good or not. Some say that the buccal fat pad shrinks as you age, others claim that it is resistant to fat loss and will remain the same size throughout your life, and some even claim that it grows larger.

I want this procedure myself, but I'm not so sure anymore. I feel like I have too MUCH volume in my face.

Buccal fat pad does frame your face but it depends on its size and the over lying facial fat pads too. My face was bulging with the buccal fat pad especially at low body fat(10-12%). When i get to 15+ my face holds alot more fat then normal. Only time can tell at this point.

How about having cheekbone and jawfillers instead of this unecessary procedure. It's all about having wide jaw and zygos to create hollowness not about getting this surgery meant for chubby asian women

Btw aren't you the guy with the deformed left nostril? How's that going?

well, some actually do. Not like all of them are some kind of measure stick.

But this guy from RealSelf definitely descended hard.

Hard to recreate with fillers. But I'm getting zygo fillers tomorrow and I'll update how it goes

Best advice I can say, is have your face looked over by people in medical aesthetic industry. I paid several people(attraction theory, quoves,RSM, so on) to analyze my face and they all shared a common occurence that my face is very robust and forward grown, but my mid face is full because of my buccal fat pad, thick skin and thick superficial fats. Only 1 of those you'd really want to think about reducing.

Oh wow, you had almost 5-6cc in each syringe? Your doctor took the whole whole buccal fat pad out. That's why you looked really good on your video and with the weight loss it really made your cheek bones pop. Mine took most in the lower area but left the rest. that's why i only had 3cc really.

Fillers over time migrate and end up doing more aesthetic damage then good. But that's not always the case. Deformed left nostril? I don't think I posted anything about nose jobs.

yeah I begged them to take all of it while they were cutting my cheeks open

 

[Tasty17]

He took out all of the buccal fat pad in the lower region of my fullness which was 3-3.5cc. I asked him to.

How does he take it out? Isn’t it all connected? Does he cut it or burn it off?

My buccal fat grows larger after each year. Soon I’m a balloon.

Jfl! You can’t shrink buccal fat with weight loss. OP is 10% body fat like I used to be. Our buccal fat pads bulge out because they don’t get smaller.

If those are your abs in your avatar, then I can understand why you had the procedure.
Most people should try to get lean before ever considering buccal fat removal. Buccal fat removal should only be a last resort.
