Step-by-Step Breast Reduction Procedure
During buccal fat removal, a small incision is made inside the mouth in the inner cheek area near the upper molars. This allows the surgeon to access and remove the buccal fat pads. The whole procedure may take around 1-2 hours and is usually performed under general anesthesia.
1. Consultation & Planning
During this initial phase, you’ll meet with your surgeon to discuss your goals, health history, and expectations. A detailed examination will be done, and the surgeon will mark incision points on your breasts, explaining the reduction technique to be used.
2. Anesthesia
The surgeon makes a small incision line on the upper molar area inside the mouth on the cheek.
The yellow buccal fat pad tissue can clearly be seen and manipulated through this incision.
3. Incision & Tissue Removal
Incision Options: The surgeon typically uses either a circular, lollipop or anchor-shaped incision depending on the extent of reduction.
Excess Tissue Removal: Once the incisions are made, excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed to reduce breast volume.
4. Reshaping & Lifting
The remaining breast tissue is then reshaped to create a lifted and natural contour. If needed, the nipple and areola are repositioned higher on the breast to achieve a balanced look.
5. Closing Incisions
The incisions are carefully closed with sutures, and your surgeon may use special techniques to minimize visible scarring.
6. Recovery and Followups
You’ll stay in the hospital for 1-2 nights for initial recovery and monitoring.
A surgical bra or compression garment is often provided to support healing.
You’ll receive a comprehensive aftercare plan detailing activity restrictions and wound care.
Regular check-ups will be scheduled to assess your healing and address any concerns.
