Deep Cheek (Buccal Fat) Removal Surgery Method
At Fresh Clinic, Dr. Hong has developed a specialized technique for removing deep cheek fat—without any incisions inside the mouth. Through extensive experience and research in facial fat surgery, Dr. Hong devised a method that targets the deep-seated buccal fat, located beneath the masseter muscle (the main chewing muscle), and under the subcutaneous fat layer—almost as if it's hidden. This technique removes not only the superficial facial fat but also the deeper buccal fat simultaneously, resulting in dramatically enhanced post-surgical outcomes.
While most buccal fat removal surgeries involve a 2cm incision inside the mouth to extract the fat pad, Dr. Hong’s method removes the buccal fat pad, which cannot be eliminated through standard facial liposuction, without oral incisions. Instead, it is removed together with the subcutaneous fat using a specialized cosmetic surgery technique—making it a unique and advanced approach.
