What is Buccal Fat Removal?
Buccal fat removal is a surgical procedure that removes the buccal fat pad — a naturally occurring pocket of fat in the cheek — to create a slimmer, more chiseled midface contour. It is one of the most requested facial procedures among patients in their 20s and 30s.
The surgery is performed under local anesthesia or light sedation. Through a small incision inside the mouth, the surgeon removes a portion of the buccal fat pad. There are no external incisions, no visible scars. Recovery involves swelling for 2 to 4 weeks with full results visible at 3 to 6 months.
Buccal fat removal is permanent. Because facial fat naturally decreases with age, some surgeons caution younger patients that significant results now may look overdone at 50. The best candidates are patients with naturally round or full midfaces, not patients who are simply overweight.
How much does Buccal Fat Removal cost in Seattle?
Buccal fat removal in Seattle typically starts at $2,400, with most procedures ranging from $2,400 to $9,600 total including surgeon fees, anesthesia, and facility costs.

What to ask your provider
- Are you board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS)?
- Am I a good candidate — do I have a full midface naturally, or am I just overweight?
- Will my face look gaunt in 10 to 20 years? What is your honest assessment?
- Can I see before-and-after photos of your own buccal fat patients at 6+ months post-op?
- Will this be performed under local anesthesia or sedation? What is the anesthesia protocol?
- What is included in the quoted price — surgeon, anesthesia, and facility?
Frequently asked questions
How much does buccal fat removal cost in Seattle?
Buccal fat removal in Seattle typically starts at $2,400 and ranges up to $9,600 all-in. The total includes surgeon fee, anesthesia, and facility costs. Board-certified plastic surgeons with high demand will be at the higher end of that range.
Is buccal fat removal permanent?
Yes. Buccal fat pads do not regenerate once removed. Results are permanent. This is part of why surgeons counsel younger patients carefully — the face naturally loses volume with age, and removing too much buccal fat in your 20s can look overdone by your 40s or 50s.
Who is a good candidate for buccal fat removal?
The best candidates have a naturally full or round midface from the buccal fat pad itself — not from overall weight or body fat. Patients who are overweight may not see the definition they expect. A board-certified plastic surgeon should assess your facial structure before recommending the procedure.
What is recovery from buccal fat removal like?
Expect swelling for 2 to 4 weeks, a soft diet for 1 to 2 weeks, and no strenuous exercise for 2 weeks. There are no external scars. Full results are visible at 3 to 6 months once all swelling has resolved.
Are there risks to buccal fat removal?
Risks include asymmetry, nerve damage (rare), infection, and the longer-term risk of looking gaunt as the face naturally loses volume with age. Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon with specific experience in facial procedures significantly reduces complication risk.
