Removal of Bisha's lumps is a modern aesthetic operation that is becoming increasingly popular in surgical cosmetology. Bisha's lumps are fatty deposits surrounded by a capsular membrane in the cheek area. There are 2 such lumps on the face, located symmetrically, one on each cheek. Give volume to the face.
Plastic surgery can remove the fat in the cheeks that gives the face a slight or excessive roundness.
The procedure for removing lumps of fat from the cheeks allows you to give the oval of the face more refined and refined contours, makes the cheekbones more emphasized and gives a slimming effect.
What are Bisha's lumps?
Every person has lumps (bags, lumps) of Bisha; they do not pose any health hazard, but sometimes cause aesthetic discomfort to their owner.
Where are they located?
Bisha's bags consist of 3 lobes, which are adipose tissue enclosed in capsules.
Located around the parotid gland, as well as between the masticatory and superficial facial muscles, they give the face a rounded contour.
Bisha's bodies help newborns suck breast milk, and in the future they contribute to thorough chewing of food. However, as a person grows older, they have only a protective function; fatty lumps prevent damage to the oral mucosa on the outside of the cheek.

In adults, these fat bags smooth out the areas of the face under the cheekbones and significantly increase the appearance of the lower part of the face. With age, they sag greatly, forming pronounced nasolabial folds in the lower jaw area, forming “jowls”.
Their presence is not a pathology, but a necessity created by nature. However, sometimes there are situations in which removing Bish's lumps is a solution to certain problems.
Removing Bisha's lumps
There is no urgent need to remove Bish's lumps. As mentioned above, with age, fat formations under the cheekbones no longer perform any functions. That is, there is only an aesthetic, and not a medical, need to get rid of them.
Why remove Bish's lumps
Removing Bisha's lumps means making the cheekbones more expressive, getting rid of nasolabial folds, and forming a clear oval of the face. In addition, after the procedure the person looks much younger.
It is necessary to remove formations in the following cases:
- with a round face type, which is emphasized by excess fat;
- if the cheeks are flabby and sagging, leading to deformation of the jawline;
- with too much fat deposits in the cheek area.
Contraindications include: age under 25 years, improper development of connective tissue, diabetes, blood diseases, oncological pathologies, as well as inflammatory processes in the oral cavity.
Removal operation
The process of eliminating fatty deposits in the cheek area is considered a fairly simple operation that lasts no more than 40 minutes. There are 2 ways to perform the operation.
The first is called internal when an endoscopic technique is used. The bags are cut from the inside of the cheek using a laser beam. The patient is under local anesthesia. The specialist removes the lumps and applies sutures, which quickly and independently dissolve.
External surgery is performed when reducing the volume of the cheeks is part of a whole complex of facial procedures. Under general anesthesia, an incision is made on the outside of the cheek. After removing the formations, the skin is sutured and tightened with a special elastic tape.
Rehabilitation after surgery
During the recovery period after surgery (about 3 weeks), you must follow the recommendations of specialists and perform a number of simple procedures.
Basic tips during rehabilitation:
- To prevent inflammation of the mucous membranes, you need to take antibiotics prescribed by your doctor.
- Do not engage in intense sports for at least 2 weeks.
- The facial muscles should be kept calm, avoiding excessive facial expressions and grimaces.
- A liquid diet is required, excluding the consumption of foods that need to be chewed thoroughly.
- Several times a day it is necessary to brush your teeth and rinse your mouth with an antibacterial composition.
- You should not spend a lot of time in the shower, bath or pool. Visiting saunas and baths is excluded.
- Food should be at the optimal temperature - neither hot nor cold.
It is recommended to sleep only on your back.
Indications for removal of Bisha's bags
Trying to diet does not always lead to a reduction in cheek fat. Why are they removed?
The indication for surgical removal of bags is the desire to improve the shape of the face in the following cases:
- The presence of excess fat deposits on the face.
- Round face shape, reinforced by adipose tissue.
- Age-related changes caused by the formation of wrinkles, skin folds, drooping cheeks.
- Plastic surgery on the face - chin liposuction, skin tightening, cheekbone implants, thread lifting. In these cases, this method acts as an additional correction.
Sometimes, not a complete removal is performed, but only the movement of fat accumulations under the cheekbones to create additional volume in this area of the cheeks.
Contraindications to the procedure
The operation to remove Bisha's lumps, like any surgical intervention, has its justified contraindications, which include:
- Violation of blood clotting processes.
- Diabetes.
- Inflammatory processes in the oral cavity, face, neck.
- Acute respiratory infections.
- Various mental illnesses, epilepsy.
- Decreased immunity.
- Liver diseases.
- Age up to 25 years, since the amount of adipose tissue up to this age can decrease on its own.
- A significant deviation of the patient’s body weight (about 25%) from the norm in a negative or positive direction.
- Planning to lose or gain weight. In this case, surgery is possible after it is completely stabilized.
Execution technique
Plastic surgery to remove balls on the cheeks is carried out in 2 ways - the fat sac is removed using the usual method or using endoscopic equipment.
The technique is as follows:
- Internal access, in which an incision of the mucous membrane about 1.5-2 cm long is made from the side of the oral cavity; after the masticatory muscles are separated, the fat lumps are pulled up, peeled off from the tissues and removed.
- External access after incision of the mucous membrane; this resection method is used only if removal of formations is indicated as an additional manipulation during plastic surgery.
In the first option, absorbable sutures are placed on the oral mucosa at the incision site. Fat lumps are cut out under local anesthesia, and the removal itself is performed quite quickly, no more than half an hour.
For patients with an unstable psycho-emotional reaction or at will, general intravenous anesthesia can be used.
Rehabilitation
The rehabilitation period after dimple plastic surgery begins from the moment the anesthesia administered to the patient wears off and continues for two weeks.
The patient must remain in the clinic throughout this period; at the end of this period, the patient can leave the clinic, but must adhere to the specialist’s recommendations.
Restrictions during the rehabilitation period:
- It is recommended to limit physical activity.
- Visiting saunas, steam baths and other thermal procedures is prohibited.
- When sleeping, use only a high pillow, in order to avoid prolonged swelling, body position - on your back.
- Avoid psycho-emotional overload (expression of emotions - laughter, screaming, grimaces).
- Intensive tooth brushing is not recommended.
- Smoking and drinking alcohol are prohibited during the recovery period.
- If necessary, a specialist may prescribe antibiotics.
After removing fat from the cheeks, it is recommended to follow a special diet, this is due to the need to minimize the load on the masticatory muscles of the face.
In the first days after surgery, the patient can only eat liquid food, after which pureed dishes can be added to the menu.
Food should not be hot or cold. It is recommended to end each meal by rinsing the mouth using various antiseptic solutions.
After successful removal and following the doctor’s recommendations, the swelling subsides after 2-3 days , and a noticeable effect of tightened cheeks can be seen after 3 weeks.
How to remove Bish's lumps without surgery at home
If surgery cannot be performed or fear is stronger than the expected effect, you can use methods to reduce cheeks at home.
At the same time, there are several methods, the regular use of which allows you to get good results: proper nutrition, massage and exercise.
How to remove with massage
Massage will help tighten the facial muscles, making the contour clearer, strengthen metabolic processes, which reduce the fat layer and reduce visible wrinkles. Massage is carried out in the evening for 10 minutes daily.
Before the procedure, the face must be cleansed and moisturized with cream. Using light circular stroking and pinching movements, move from the center of the face to the temples and ears. In this case, touches should promote a rush of blood, increasing tone, and not stretch the skin. To complete the procedure, you can perform acupressure or apply the Japanese Asahi technique.
Another option for treating facial skin is to use a terry towel, which is rolled into a rope and dipped in a salt solution. Then you need to apply the towel to your chin with patting movements.
Exercises
To reduce the volume of your cheeks, you can use one of the following sets of exercises:
- As you inhale, puff out your cheeks, purse your lips into a tube and slowly exhale air through your mouth. Repeat 5-8 times.
- Hold a pen or pencil between your lips and draw letters in the air;
- Make movements simulating rinsing your mouth for 2-3 minutes.
- Pronounce vowel sounds loudly and clearly, opening your mouth wide, repeat 15-20 times.
- Clench your teeth tightly for several seconds.
- Place your elbows on the table, press your chin firmly against your palms, try to open your mouth, repeat 10 times.

Undesirable consequences
As a rule, there are no negative consequences of removing Bisha lumps in the cheeks.
But, in some cases, undesirable results and reactions may appear due to improper preparation for the procedure, its implementation, as well as the negligence of the surgeon.
The consequences of unsuccessful removal of Bish's lumps include:
- Painful sensations. They are present for the first few days after surgery, then their intensity decreases.
- Damage to nearby tissues. The incompetence of a surgeon can disrupt the integrity of the facial muscles located in proximity to Bisha's lumps (salivary gland, facial muscles, facial nerve).
- Allergic reaction. During the manipulation, local or general anesthesia is used, which can cause an allergic reaction in the patient, manifested by respiratory depression, decreased blood pressure, various cardiac dysfunctions, skin rashes or vomiting.
Therefore, before deciding to do this, you should carefully select a clinic and surgeon with experience in performing these operations.
Some negative consequences may be due to the individual physiology of the patient and non-compliance with the doctor’s recommendations during the rehabilitation period. They may be the following: the occurrence of facial asymmetry, the appearance of wrinkles, inflammation of the mucous membrane of the cheek.
In some cases, even with a slight weight gain after this procedure, the volume of the shape and size of the face returns to its original size. If the patient has experienced a significant weight loss (more than 30% of the original), the patient’s face sometimes takes on a tired, “senile” appearance. An example of this is especially visible in the before and after photos:

Irina, Moscow I was advised to remove Bisha's lumps by the plastic surgeon with whom I had rhinoplasty. He says this will make your face even more attractive. If I'm not mistaken, I gave about 30,000 in total, the result is quite satisfactory. It hurts to eat for 3 days after removal, but then it becomes easier.
Sofia, Yekaterinburg They did this to me, after which my cheekbones became a little more noticeable, but not enough. Resection of the masticatory muscles gives a greater effect - there are three layers in total, and 2 layers were cut out for me. After this, the cheeks fell in, it’s comfortable to chew, there are no problems.
Nikita, Novosibirsk Removed Bisha's lumps in Moscow on Arbat at the Medlaz clinic. It’s not scary, I feel great after. Immediately afterwards he left by car. It gives a lot of masculinity to the face, so I don’t regret what I did.
Valeria, Kazan We have an approximate price for removing lumps - around 30 thousand. A friend did it, she was satisfied, and I like how she looked. I’ll save up and do it too)
Olga, St. Petersburg I had it done at the Spica clinic in St. Petersburg, I really like the result - my cheeks have lost a lot of weight, my face is fresher and younger.
