Buccal Fat Removal in Liverpool – Coming Soon*

As time passes, many people find excess fat in places we’d rather not have—one of the most common being the face. Fat deposits can accumulate in the chin and cheeks due to poor diet, an inactive lifestyle, or simply the natural ageing process. Excess facial fat can leave patients with low self-confidence and affect mental health, leading to low moods and poor self-esteem.

*This procedure is not available yet but will be coming to our clinic in Autumn/Winter 2025.

About Buccal Fat removal in Liverpool

A buccal fat removal focuses on undesirable fat in the cheeks and offers subtle face fat removal, cheek reduction surgery and contouring aesthetics for a more fabulous, streamlined look to the cheek area. The procedure restores harmony and balance of the face by removing the buccal fat pads located in the midface and, therefore, decreasing midface fullness.

More about Buccal Fat removal

Buccal Fat Removal is an effective solution for those looking to refine the lower face by reducing excess fat in the cheeks. This treatment can benefit patients of all ages, especially those who struggle to achieve a more sculpted appearance through diet and exercise alone. Even individuals with a naturally slim build may have fuller cheeks due to genetic factors, making them ideal candidates for this procedure.

Our expert surgical team will soon be offering buccal fat removal at Cosmetic Surgery of The Royal Liver Building, providing patients with a safe and professional approach to facial contouring.

*This procedure is not available yet but will be introduced at our clinic in Autumn/Winter 2025.

Buccal Fat removal via local anaesthetic

FAQ’s For for Buccal Fat Removal

After buccal fat reduction, you will have a more defined and contoured appearance. Traditional facial liposuction cannot achieve the same results as cosmetic surgeons cannot treat this area with liposuction. Changes in diet and exercise benefit the most from buccal fat reduction.

Buccal fat reduction is a suitable procedure for patients of all ages who have completed their development since most of the population will start losing facial fat by the age of 20-35. If fat is removed prematurely, your face may appear gaunt or unhealthy.

The outcome of buccal fat removal is permanent. However, a patient needs to be aware that an unhealthy lifestyle can reverse the effects of buccal fat pad removal, especially if the patient gains a significant amount of weight. Our medical team can give you tips for leading a healthier lifestyle after cheek fat removal.

Our experienced Cosmetic Surgeons can perform buccal fat removal for excess facial fat, with several other procedures to improve the face's overall appearance, including eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty), face and neck lifts and chin augmentation.
The recovery time for this procedure is short. Most patients want their procedure done on a Friday to be ready for work on Monday. We strongly recommend that our patients have someone drive them home after a buccal fat pad removal procedure, even after local anaesthesia. It is best not to drive after any face fat removal. Bruising and swelling are expected and can be controlled with some ice compression. Therefore, it may take up to 3 weeks to see the results after cheek reduction surgery.

Most swelling will go away in the first few days of recovery. Any pain or discomfort that may occur after face fat removal can be relieved with ice or paracetamol. Our aftercare service is exemplary, and our team of elite care staff are on hand to assist you in any way.
