Cheek Aesthetics
The cheeks, which cover a large part of our face, affect our face shape. Saggy, deformed or sunken cheeks can negatively affect the face shape, causing the person to look sad, unhappy and old. Thanks to cheek aesthetics, cheeks can be made suitable for the face shape and volume can be added. Cheek aesthetics can also be used to create dimples. By creating a distinctive and attractive appearance, dimples help patients feel good and peaceful, and make them feel better in their social lives.
Why Cheek Aesthetics Can Be Performed?
Cheek aesthetics can be performed on both young and old patients. Some people may have naturally saggy or very bulky large cheeks. This can cause a round face and patients to appear fatter than they are. Buccal liposuction can be performed to achieve a long oil-free appearance, also known as “Hollywood cheeks”. This surgical aesthetic procedure can create attractive defined cheekbones and a proportional cheek and face. Some people may also want surgically made dimples.
How Is Bichectomy (Cheek Aesthetics) Performed?
The purpose of bichectomy is to shape the cheeks and reveal the cheekbones and chin, and to eliminate the saggy and oily appearance on the cheeks. Cheek aesthetic surgery aims to create sharp and attractive facial features and is usually performed under local anesthesia. General anesthesia may also be preferred if other applications are to be made in the face area. Under local anesthesia, patients do not feel any pain. An incision of 1 cm is made inside the cheek, and the inner tissues are reached from there, and the parts that make the cheek look fat are removed. At this point, it is very important for your doctor to be an expert in his work, because in order to get the expected result, both of your cheeks must be in full consistency and your cheeks must be symmetrical. If necessary, the fat taken from the cheeks can be injected into the cheekbones to create the ideal V shape.
Post-Bichectomy Care
Patients can be discharged the same day after surgery. It is important to pay attention to oral hygiene during the healing process, to use regular mouthwash and to keep the area free from infection. Antibiotics recommended by your doctor should be used regularly to further protect the area. Consuming soft and liquid foods can also help the healing process go more smoothly by reducing the risk of bleeding.
What is Dimple Aesthetics? Why is it done?
Dimples are small indentations on the cheeks. Dimples are muscle anomalies, but they are aesthetically pleasing and attractive to many. Due to its energetic and lively expression, it contributes to a smile that many would like to have. Thanks to today's surgical advances, it is possible to create dimples.
How is Dimple Surgery Performed?
Dimple surgeries are short and do not cause any serious complications. Before the operation, the area is anesthetized with local anesthesia. Patients do not feel any pain during the surgery. Dimple surgery is done through the mouth. The cheek area is reached through a 3-4 mm incision. All surgical procedures are performed in 10-30 minutes.
Care After Dimple Surgery
Since it is done inside the mouth, it is especially important to keep the area clean of possible infections. It is important to give importance to oral hygiene and to eliminate the possibility of bleeding without forcing the area. Consuming soft and liquid foods can help the area heal quickly and smoothly.
