Mr. Marando

Mr. Marando is a highly skilled and trained surgeon who specializes in buccal fat pad reduction surgery. This surgical procedure is designed to address the buccal fat in the region of the cheeks, slimming down the facial profile. Buccal fat pads are found in the cheeks, to the rear of the upper jaw, and at the temples. They determine the fullness of our face.

The volume or density of the buccal fat pads are determined by either genetics or weight gain, and this treatment can not only slim the facial profile but create a more evenly balanced contouring of the face as a whole. Mr. Marando will conduct a full assessment prior to arranging the treatment, during which he will take into account your individual indications and consider the outcome you are looking for. He will ensure tailoring the approach to best fit with your needs, suiting your facial structure and ensure you are fully informed of the techniques he intends to use.

The procedure involves removing excess fat from the buccal pad to produce a reduction in the size of the cheeks, as opposed to removing the pad altogether. For enhanced facial rejuvenation, this treatment may be performed alongside other procedures such as: Blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), neck lift or facelift (Rhytidectomy).

The procedure will see an incision made on the inside of your mouth, extracting excess fat from the pad in your cheek and closed using dissolvable sutures. The inside of the mouth will generally take around 10 days for the wounds to settle and show signs of recovery, with additional swelling and bruising on the cheeks taking around 2 – 3 weeks to subside, following the procedure.

The full results will take a few months to develop when the contour of your face can appear slimmer and better sculpted. Delivering a natural-looking youthful rejuvenation to the face. It is important to note that the outcomes achieved from this treatment can vary from person to person and factors such as diet and the development of other ageing related conditions can have an effect on the long term results.

Mr. Marando will follow up your treatment with careful monitoring during post-operative consultations, enabling him to support your recovery and ensure you are happy with the end results.
