What Is Bichat Fat Pad Resection?
The Bichat fat pad is a pocket of fat located beneath the cheekbones. Removing a portion of this fat can help refine the lower cheek area and create more definition in the face.
This procedure can be particularly useful for individuals with a fuller or heavier-set face who want greater facial shape and contour.
