Bichectomy Cost in India

The cost of Bichectomy in India typically ranges from $500 to $6,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Bichectomy (buccal fat removal) removes part of the buccal fat pad inside the cheek to slim the lower face. It is done through a small cut inside the mouth. The cost depends on:

• Surgeon experience
• Anaesthesia: usually local, sometimes with sedation.
• Combined procedures: for example chin or jawline work.
• Setting: clinic or hospital.

Facial fat naturally reduces with age. Removing buccal fat in a person whose face is already slim can make the cheeks look hollow later in life. Surgeons generally select patients with full lower cheeks and avoid over-removal. Ask how much tissue will be removed and how your face may change over time.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons lists injury to branches of the facial nerve, which can cause temporary or permanent weakness, injury to a salivary duct, and asymmetry. Choose a surgeon experienced in facial anatomy.

• Swelling: settles over a few weeks.
• Diet: soft foods and mouth rinses for a few days.
• Final result: visible after a few months.
• Time in India: a few days is often enough.
