Bichectomy is a procedure that aims to remove excess fat pockets located in the cheeks, known as Bichat's glands. This gives the face a more defined contour, which provides a slimmer and more harmonious appearance.

 

These glands can be excessive in some people, contributing to a rounder appearance of the face.

 

The surgery is performed in a minimally invasive manner, with internal incisions inside the mouth, without leaving visible external scars.

 

Indications for Bichectomy

 

Bichectomy is recommended for patients who want a thinner face, especially those with a rounded face or fuller cheeks, providing a more delicate and defined facial silhouette.
