INFORMATION POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED
Since there are small stitches in the mouth after the surgery, solid food should not be consumed on the first day. On the first day of the surgery, the patient may have difficulty in chewing, and chewing may damage the sutures.
After being fed with liquid foods on the first day, light solid foods can be started from the second day and then solid food can be started. Mouthwash should be used for three days after surgery. Stitches are hardly felt after cheek surgery. Care should be taken to clean the mouth to avoid infection. In a few days, the stitches on the cheeks melt and disappear. All the tenderness in the cheeks also ends.
Anyone who has thick, square or round facial features due to the fat in the cheek area can easily have this procedure done. It is recommended that people who are not overweight but have lubrication in the cheek area should have a bichectomy in order to have proportional and aesthetic facial features.
For this operation, which has become quite common in our country in recent years, it is recommended that patients be older than 20-25 years of age. From these ages, the adipose tissue on the cheeks becomes more permanent. Therefore, cheek fat removal should not be considered before the end of adolescence.
Since the surgery is done through the mouth, there are no scars.
The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia. The operation time is approximately 30 minutes. You can be discharged the same day to the job with local anesthesia.
