Question

I am interested in the removal of the buccal fat pad. However, I'm not sure if I am suitable for this patient. About me: male, slim and very athletic, 28 years old, any physical ailments or diseases.

I would be delighted if you say your opinion in this regard. Since I personally can not appear at first, I could send you by mail a couple of photos?

Answer

My typical protocol is to assess the facial contours using 3-D imaging and simulation, based on which we can produce a management plan that reflects the type and degree of changes you seek.

Photographs can be used for orientation, but are significantly more limited in scope. I would be happy to send you some comments if you forward photographs to our e-mail address: contact@aps.london
