Softer and more defined facial contours without invasive surgery
Not everyone is naturally blessed with defined cheekbones or a slim lower face. Buccal lipectomy is a surgical procedure in which excess fat from the cheeks (buccal fat) is removed to highlight the contours of the cheekbones and jawline. The face appears slimmer, more elegant, and gains a more mature and refined look.
At GÉVÉ Clinic, the procedure is performed with an emphasis on natural results – respecting your facial anatomy and overall harmony.
Who is buccal lipectomy suitable for?
Individuals with full, round cheeks regardless of body weight,
Those seeking sharper cheekbones and a defined jawline,
People without volume loss in the upper part of the face,
Clients wanting a slimmer, more mature facial appearance,
Healthy individuals with realistic expectations.
This procedure is typically recommended after the age of 20, once facial structure development is complete.
Buccal lipectomy is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 30–60 minutes. The surgeon:
Makes a small incision (1–2 cm) inside the mouth,
Removes an appropriate amount of buccal fat from each side through the incision,
Closes the area with absorbable sutures – resulting in no visible external scars.
The procedure may be combined with chin liposuction, dermal fillers, or lifting treatments.
Recovery and return to daily life
Mild swelling and tension in the cheeks may occur after the procedure. Temporary changes in sensation or slight stiffness are also common.
Post-procedure recommendations:
Soft or liquid diet for 3–5 days,
Enhanced oral hygiene (mouth rinses after meals),
Avoid physical activity for 5–7 days,
Sleep with head elevated to reduce swelling,
Follow-up check-ups at the clinic to monitor healing.

Results and longevity
The procedure results in a slimmer mid-face, accentuated cheekbones, and a sharper jawline. The effect is permanent – fat cells do not regenerate in the treated area.
When performed correctly by an experienced surgeon, it maintains natural fullness and proportions without causing a 'sunken' look.
