Bichectomy (cheek thinning surgery)
The operation called bichectomy is actually referred to as "cheek fat removal" in the western medical literature. It is the operation of removing the bichat fat pad, which is a special anatomical structure on the back of the cheek, which is inside the mouth. The surgery is done entirely from the inside of the cheek. It is an operation performed with general anesthesia. This surgery has many features. For example, right next to the bichat fat pad taken from the cheek, there are many important anatomical structures such as the salivary duct and facial nerves. That's why there is a special technique to doing this surgery: the surgery should be done with scissors without cutting anything. The adipose tissue taken from the cheek has a volume of 3 cc.

This surgery has different effects in men and women due to the differences in facial anatomy. In men, the puffiness of the cheeks decreases, the face becomes thinner. In women, the cheeks are slightly collapsed or flattened, and the cheekbones become prominent. The face takes on a more lively and adult female appearance. Patients describe this look as "sexier."
The operation takes about half an hour. The patient does not need to be hospitalized. A bandage should remain on the cheeks for a few days. There will be some swelling. It takes a few weeks for the surgery to take its final form. The sutures thrown in the surgery are completely self-dissolving sutures, they do not need to be removed.
