Buccalfat pad, bichectomy, surgical technique, related anatomy, clinical caseAbstract
The buccal fat pad is an anatomical structure that is well defined in the orofacial region and is associated with the masticatory muscles. Bichectomy or removing the buccal fat pad (BFP) is a very simple intervention, minimally invasive and fully ambulatory. This operation refines facial features and accentuates cheekbones achieving more defined facial contours.
