For those seeking a more refined, sculpted look, this treatment helps to highlight features like the cheekbones and jawline.

Buccal Fat Removal in Vancouver, BC

If you've ever wished for more defined cheekbones or felt like your face still carries that “baby fat” well into adulthood, buccal fat removal might be the perfect solution. If you've always had fuller cheeks or noticed that your face hasn't slimmed down with age or weight loss, this procedure can create a more defined and sculpted look.

Under the expert care of Dr. Paul Denton, our highly skilled double board-certified plastic surgeon with over 15 years of experience, this procedure offers a way to gently contour your face and bring out those stunning cheekbones that might currently be hiding.

Buccal Fat Removal
Are the results of buccal fat removal permanent?

Yes, the results from buccal fat removal are permanent! Once the fat pads are removed, they won’t come back. However, it's important to maintain a stable weight since significant weight gain or loss can still affect the appearance of your face.

Will buccal fat removal make my face look too hollow as I age?

This is a common concern! Our approach is to remove just enough fat to give you a natural, sculpted look without making your face appear hollow. As you age, your face will naturally lose volume, but we’re careful to strike a balance so that your results remain flattering over time.

Can buccal fat removal be combined with other procedures?

Yes! Many patients choose to combine buccal fat removal with other procedures like rhinoplasty or a facelift to create an even more dramatic transformation. Pairing treatments can enhance your overall look and save you time by addressing multiple concerns in one go. We’ll help you create a custom plan that works best for you.

Who is a good candidate for buccal fat removal?

You could be a great candidate for buccal fat removal if you feel like your cheeks are fuller than you'd like or if you want a more sculpted facial profile. It’s best suited for those in good overall health and with stable weight. During a consultation, we’ll assess your facial anatomy and talk about whether this is the right option for your goals.
