What is bichectomy?
We are talking about bichectomy, or extraction of Bichat balls, bags of fatty tissue that we all have on our cheeks.
Why have a bichectomy?
- To refine the face and reduce the appearance of a round face.
- Highlight the cheekbones.
- Rejuvenate the appearance of the face.
Why are they called Bichat Balls?
They are called balls or Bichat bags after the French anatomist who identified them with his last name.
What is bichectomy or cheek surgery?
They are bags or balls of fat or adipose tissue that are behind the cheekbones between the masseter and buccinator muscles.
What are Bichat balls?
It is a facial surgery that consists of stylizing the facial appearance by resecting the Bichat fat pockets.
It is a relatively simple procedure that is done through the mouth with incisions of about 4 mm under local anesthesia in an operating room and has a recovery time of 2 or 3 days.
What are Bichat balls used for?
Bichat Balls do not perform any function, they only generate volume in the cheeks and in cases such fat accumulations are very large, they cause a round facial appearance.
Before bichectomy surgery
It is ideal that you confirm with your surgeon if you really need a bichectomy. Once there is understanding and the surgery is justified, he will explain to you what the most recommended technique is, the type of anesthesia you will need and everything related to laboratory tests.
Pre-anesthetic appointment
It is an evaluation with your anesthesiologist where your state of health is validated and it is confirmed with laboratory tests that you will be able to pass anesthesia without problems.
After surgery
- Bland feeding is suggested in the first days.
- Keep ice on the area for approximately 20 minutes every hour.
- Usually there are no problems but in case of persistent pain you should consult your facial plastic surgeon.
