Buccal Fat Reduction | Arlington, VA | Jonathan Cabin, MD - Facial Plastic Surgeon

Understanding Buccal Fat Reduction

Buccal fat pads are large collections of fat that can create a rounder, "chipmunk-like" facial appearance. As individuals age, these fat stores can make the lower face look heavier or less defined. Buccal fat reduction is a specialized procedure designed to address these concerns and restore facial balance.

Procedure Overview

This minimally invasive technique involves carefully accessing buccal fat pads through a small incision inside the mouth. Dr. Jonathan Cabin removes an appropriate amount of excess fat to create a more sculpted, natural-looking facial profile without external scarring.
