CheekFix: Buccal Fat Reduction
Everyone has two buccal fat pads in the mid to low cheek that shapes the frame of your face. This procedure immediately slims and contours the mid-face and jawline. All incisions are made on the inside of the mouth, so there are no visible scars on your face or cheeks. With little to no recovery time, it's time to say goodbye forever to chubby cheeks!
- Slims the lower face
- No visible scars and minimum downtime
- Say goodbye forever to chubby cheeks
Note: This treatment is available at our UES locations. A consultation is needed to be booked prior to the appointment.

Is it performed under local anesthesia?
Yes, it is performed under local anesthesia. The surgery takes about 30 mins. At BeautyFix, we want you to love your results forever. To ensure this, our surgeons perform buccal fat reductions, not full removals. Removing all the buccal fat from the face will remove structural support needed overtime as you age, so leaving a portion of buccal fat in the face will allow for your results to remain flawless over time, regardless of aging or weight fluctuations. We’re here to ensure you stay slaying long-term!
What is the recovery time?
Swelling and bruising is common following the procedure. The tissue inside the mouth will typically take a week to 10 days to recover post-surgery. Get ready to sip some smoothies, because a liquid-only or semi-liquid diet may be needed as the patient heals for the first few days after the surgery. You’ll typically be able to see the full results of the procedure in 3-6 months, so you’ll be perfectly sculpted by the summer if you book your procedure in the next few weeks!
Is financing available for this procedure?
Yes, full-financing is available for this procedure. Monthly installments are as low as $89. You can use CareCredit, Alphaeon, Enhance Medical or United Medical for financing your treatment.
Note
A consultation is needed to determine if this is the right treatment for you. By coupling a customized treatment plan specifically tailored for you along with patient education, financing options and a result-oriented regimen, together you will work towards a slimmer, more contoured you.
Buccal fat are the small pads in the cheeks that give your face its fullness. The size of the buccal fat pads can be larger in some people, which can give some people a “baby-faced” appearance. While some people love their baby face, others are in search of a more contoured look, which is why a growing number of people – including some of your favorite celebrities – are turning to buccal fat removal as a method to get the chiseled cheeks of their dreams.
The procedure itself only takes 15 to 20 minutes. First, you’re numbed with a local anesthetic . Then, a small incision is made on the inside of the cheek to expose the fat pad. The exposed fat is then trimmed and removed. The incisions are then sutured up and the process is repeated on the other side. The goal is to create a more sculpted and angular appearance.
Generally, patients who have a round, chubby face with excess fat in the cheeks see the best results! It's important to have realistic expectations and understand that buccal fat reduction will not lead to significant weight loss.
