Bichectomia (Redução de Bochechas)
A bichectomia remove gordura bucal (bolsas de boca) das laterais das bochechas criando definição facial, maçãs do rosto proeminentes e perfil afunilado.
No visible external scars result from bichectomia because incisions are made inside the mouth (intraoral incisions). These internal incisions are hidden completely and close with dissolving sutures. There is no external cicatrização whatsoever, making this one of the most scar-gratuita cosmetic procedures available.
Is bichectomia permanent?
Yes, bichectomia resultados are permanent. The removed fat pads do not regenerate, and resultados are long-lasting. However, your face continues to age naturally, and some pacientes experiência subtle changes over many anos. Some pacientes later choose to add volume through fillers if desired, but the fat removal itself is permanent.
At what age is bichectomia ideal?
bichectomia is typically ideal for younger to middle-aged pacientes (20s-50s) with excess buccal fat. Very young pacientes should ensure they have naturally full cheeks rather than just baby fat. Older pacientes may need volume restoration instead of fat removal due to age-related facial volume loss. consulta with a cirurgião helps determine ideal timing.
Will I look gaunt or hollow-cheeked after bichectomia?
When performed by an experiente cirurgião, bichectomia creates a sculpted appearance with prominent maçãs do rosto, not a gaunt or hollow look. The key is removing the appropriate amount of fat without over-correction. Our cirurgiões carefully balance fat removal to create naturally beautiful definition rather than excessive hollowing.
Can bichectomia be reversed?
bichectomia is not reversible because removed fat does not regenerate. This is why careful pre-operative planning and discussion of goals is essential. Some pacientes choose to add volume through transferência de gordura or bochecha implantes later if they desire fuller cheeks, but the original buccal fat cannot be restored.
How long is recuperação after bichectomia?
recuperação is relatively quick. Most inchaço resolves within 1-2 semanas, and you can return to normal activities within 1-2 semanas. You should maintain a soft diet for the first few dias. By 2-3 semanas, you appear nearly normal, though final resultados take 2-3 meses as all inchaço completely resolves.
Can I eat normally after bichectomia?
Yes, you can return to normal eating within 1-2 semanas. Immediately after cirurgia (first few dias), a soft diet is recommended to avoid putting pressure on cicatrização incisions. By one week, most pacientes can resume normal diet. Avoid hot, spicy foods initially to prevent irritation of internal incisions.
What is the custo of bichectomia in Istambul?
bichectomia in Istambul typically costs $3,000-$5,500, significantly less than Western countries where it costs $4,000-$8,000. Estetica Istambul's all-inclusive packages provide excellent value, covering cirurgia, consultations, hospedagem, and complete aftercare. This exceptional affordability combined with especialista cirurgiões makes Istambul an ideal destination.
Can I combine bichectomia with other facial procedures?
Yes, many pacientes benefit from combining bichectomia with queixo augmentation, rinoplastia, facelift, or other procedures for comprehensive facial enhancement. Combining procedures is often efficient and allows cohesive aesthetic planning. Your cirurgião will recommend optimal combinations based on your facial analysis and goals.
Will bichectomia make me look older as I age?
This is a valid consideration. As you age, natural facial volume decreases, and some pacientes wish they had retained more bochecha fullness. However, many pacientes are satisfied with their sculpted appearance long-term. Discussion with your cirurgião about your age, facial structure, and long-term goals helps determine if bichectomia is right for you.
