What is Cheek Aesthetics (Bichectomy)?
- Cheek surgery, also known as bichectomy or Hollywood Cheek Aesthetics, is a surgical method that provides thinning of the face and a prominent cheekbone appearance by removing excess fat tissue in the cheek area.
- Cheekbones, which become evident with bichectomy surgery, make the facial structure more prominent and shaped.
- Since the amount of fat tissue in the cheeks is reduced by bichectomy surgery, it prevents the problems that may occur in aging.
How is bichectomy performed in aesthetics?
- In bichectomy surgery, excess adipose tissue is removed from an approximately 1 cm incision in the cheeks.
How does the process progress after bichectomy aesthetics?
- Dissolving sutures are placed on the incision site.
- For this reason, there is no need for suture removal.
- Bruising and edema disappear in approximately 1-2 weeks.
- Applying cold on the cheeks helps to reduce edema and bruising.
- After plastic surgery, the person can continue his/her daily life.
- The first 3 days are fed with liquid.
- In 4-7 days, the eating pattern can return to its former state.
- When necessary, bandage can be applied with the recommendation of a doctor.
