Can I Have Other Cosmetic Procedures Done Along With A Bichectomy?

In almost everyone’s facial anatomy, there are small fat pads in the cheeks called ’’bichats’‘ (Bichat’s fat pads). These fat pads are one of the anatomical structures that give the face its shape. Depending on the general facial anatomy and facial proportions of the person, the reduction of these fat pads by a bichectomy operation can provide an improvement in appearance of the individual.

During a bichectomy operation which has been made more popular by Hollywood stars, these fats pads are removed from very small incisions made inside the mouth for each cheek and they are reduced. Bichectomy is an operation that can be called to be simple when performed by experienced, appropriate surgeons. It is an operation that can easily be performed under local anesthesia in a relatively short period of time. After completion of the operation, it is possible to return to daily life immediately.

One of the things that people who are considering to have a bichectomy operation are curious about is whether other cosmetic surgeries or treatments can be performed at the same or at a close time along with this operation. As mentioned, a bichectomy can be called to be a simple operation, so as long as the patient’s health status allows it, it can be performed at the same or at a close time with other cosmetic. Other cosmetic surgeries such as rhinoplasty surgeries, facelift surgeries, cosmetic eyelid surgeries, cosmetic breast surgeries, fat grafting surgeries and the like can be performed at the same or at a close time with a bichectomy operation. Likewise, non-surgical cosmetic treatments such as botox and filler injections can be performed at the same or at a close time with a bichectomy operation, provided that they are not applied to the the lower cheek region which is the target area of a bichectomy operation.
