Slims the face and marks the cheekbones
BICHECTOMY
WHAT IS BICHECTOMY?
​
Surgical reduction of excess fat on the cheeks, obtaining a more defined face
LThe bichectomy is one of the facial aesthetic surgeries aimed at stylizing the face. It consists of the extirpation of the Bichat balls. These are fatty bags that are located on the cheeks. They are responsible for excessively wide and rounded facial shapes. Thanks to the removal of these bags, we mold optical volumes of stylization and slimness. As a consequence of the removal of the Bichat balls, the cheekbone and chin will gain prominence, obtaining as a result an apparently longer face.
Bichectomy in Madrid
It is a very simple cosmetic surgery that is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. The intervention lasts approximately 30 minutes and does not require hospitalization.
​
The Bichectomy operation is one of the most satisfactory surgeries due to its definitive aesthetic results – once the balls are removed it is impossible for accumulations of fat to occur in the cheek again – and due to its rapid recovery.
​
HOW MANY DAYS OFF DO I NEED?
​
​After the Bichectomy intervention, it is necessary to rest as much as possible between three and five days after the operation. This estimate may vary depending on the work and daily activity of each person.
BICHAT BALLS BEFORE AND AFTER RESULTS
The result of Bichectomy is immediate, although during the first days due to post-surgical inflammation the final result is not fully appreciated. With the elimination of the Bichat balls, the width of the cheeks is reduced, the face is refined and the cheekbones are enhanced.
​
ARE THE RESULTS PERMANENT?
​
If a person gains weight after undergoing a bichectomy, they can further accentuate the rounded shape of the face, but in no case will they accumulate fat in the cheek area since the accumulation of fat in Bichat balls does not depend on variations They are caused by diet and exercise and in large part their prominence is determined by genetics.
