Bichectomy Surgery (Buccal Fat Removal)
Our price: 7,000 PLN
Sculpt Your Cheeks, Define Your Features
Bichectomy, also known as buccal fat removal, is a popular cosmetic procedure designed to enhance facial definition by reducing fullness in the lower cheeks. By removing the buccal fat pads located between the cheekbone and jaw, the face appears slimmer and more contoured—especially in patients with round or "baby face" features.
Performed by our experienced plastic surgeons at Allmedica in Nowy Targ, Poland, this minimally invasive surgery offers long-lasting results with a short recovery time and no visible scarring.
Why Choose Bichectomy?
- Creates a slimmer, more defined facial contour
- Enhances cheekbone visibility and jawline definition
- Minimally invasive with no external incisions
- Permanent reduction of buccal fat
- Quick recovery, minimal downtime
Ideal Candidates
You may be a good candidate for buccal fat removal if you:
- Have full, round cheeks despite a healthy weight
- Want a more sculpted or contoured facial look
- Are in good overall health and a non-smoker

Recovery & Aftercare
Recovery from bichectomy is relatively quick, but it's important to follow post-op care instructions for optimal results and healing.
First Few Days:
- Swelling and mild bruising are expected
- Soft or liquid diet to avoid irritating incision sites
- Use antiseptic mouth rinses after meals
- Sleep with head elevated to reduce swelling
Week 1:
- Most patients return to normal daily activities
- Avoid strenuous physical activity or heavy lifting
- Continue soft food intake and mouth hygiene
Week 2-4:
- Swelling continues to reduce
- Final results begin to appear
- Avoid smoking or alcohol to support healing
Long-Term:
- Results are permanent once healing is complete
- Facial contours will continue to refine over 3-6 months
Risks & Considerations
Although bichectomy is a low-risk procedure, it's still important to understand the potential complications:
- Swelling and bruising - Common but temporary
- Infection - Minimized with proper mouth hygiene
- Injury to facial nerves - Rare, but may result in temporary numbness or asymmetry
- Excessive fat removal - Can lead to a gaunt appearance as you age
- Hematoma - Localized blood collection that may need drainage
- Revision surgery - Rare, only in cases of asymmetry or dissatisfaction with results
