Transformative Facial Procedures with Dr. Jaime Flores at BeautyLand Plastic Surgery

At BeautyLand Plastic Surgery, Dr. Jaime Flores offers two highly sought-after procedures: buccal fat removal and dimpleplasty, each designed to enhance facial aesthetics with precision and artistry.

Buccal Fat Removal

Buccal fat removal is ideal for individuals seeking a more contoured and defined facial structure. The procedure involves the removal of buccal fat pads from the cheeks, which results in a slimmer face and accentuated cheekbones.

Before the Procedure

  • Consultation: Dr. Flores will thoroughly assess your facial structure and discuss your goals.
  • Preparation: You will need to avoid smoking, alcohol, and blood thinners for at least two weeks before the surgery to ensure optimal healing.

During the Procedure

  • Anesthesia: The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia.
  • Surgery: Dr. Flores will make small incisions inside the mouth to remove the buccal fat pads. This approach avoids visible scars and ensures a quick recovery.

After the Procedure

  • Recovery: Expect some swelling and discomfort, which typically subside within a few days. Most patients return to their normal routines in about two weeks, with full results visible after six months.

Dimpleplasty

Dimpleplasty, or cheek dimple creation, is another popular procedure offered by Dr. Flores. This surgery creates permanent dimples, enhancing your smile and adding a charming feature to your facial aesthetics.

Procedure Details

  • Incisions: Small incisions, about 2 centimeters long, are made inside the cheeks.
  • Muscle Alteration: A small piece of cheek muscle and fat is removed.
  • Sutures: The remaining muscle is attached to the skin with dissolvable sutures, which create the dimples.

Recovery

The recovery period for dimpleplasty is relatively short. Patients can usually return to their normal activities within a few days, with permanent dimples becoming more defined over time.
