I want to get rid of my buccal fat

There are many people who receive buccal fat InMode treatments but don’t feel any effect,

and eventually end up getting buccal fat removal.

Why wasn’t there any effect? We’ll explain at Kim Hyung Jin Basic~!

The reason buccal fat InMode is not effective is

because buccal fat is different from ordinary subcutaneous fat

and is located deeper inside,

making it fat that belongs to an intraoral structure.

Because of that, a procedure done on the skin tissue,

such as buccal fat InMode, cannot affect the intraoral structure,

and it can only be reduced by having buccal fat removal.

However, some people may have received buccal fat InMode and

felt as if their face had become slimmer.

That is only an optical illusion that makes it look like it was lifted,

because of the temporary skin-tightening effect,

and does not mean the buccal fat actually decreased!

To get rid of buccal fat

and create the facial line you wanted,

the only solution is to perform surgery

that removes the buccal fat by making an incision inside the mouth.

However, because this is not a procedure but buccal fat removal surgery,

you are bound to have many concerns about side effects and the like.

At our clinic, lower buccal fat removal

allows selective removal of only the unnecessary fat,

so there is less of the sunken cheek phenomenon,

which is often mentioned as a side effect of buccal fat removal,

and it also has the advantage of being able to remove fat that has adhered to the skin!

Also, Dr. Kim Hyung Jin of Kim Hyung Jin Basic Plastic Surgery Clinic

has abundant anatomical knowledge about buccal fat and extensive surgical experience,

and performs surgery with delicate manual technique,

so you can receive the procedure with peace of mind.

If you didn’t get the results you wanted from buccal fat InMode,

how about trying buccal fat removal at Kim Hyung Jin Basic~?
