With a buccal lipectomy, Walnut Creek patients can reduce lower-cheek fullness for a more contoured and defined appearance. Also known as buccal fat pad removal or buccal fat reduction, this facial plastic surgery procedure is quite simple and precise.

The appearance of excess lower-cheek volume is caused by the buccal fat pad, a section of fatty tissue found below the cheekbone. During a buccal lipectomy, fat is removed from this pad for effective facial contouring.
