In the world of movie stars and celebrities, physical appearance is not only important, in many cases it is vital. In fact, a large part of their work consists of taking care of themselves: both their appearance and their physical shape.
Movie stars, singers and public figures are often admired for their beauty and unique style. A beauty that is not always achieved, or maintained naturally with the passage of time, so they have no choice but to resort to medicine or facial cosmetic surgery to maintain a perfect and rejuvenated face.
In this article, we will explore how bichectomy has transformed the facial contours of some celebrities and we will try to explain briefly and simply what the removal of Bichat’s balls consists of.
Bichectomy or removal of the Bichat balls
Bichectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of Bichat’s pouches, fatty structures located in the cheeks. These fat pads, which are present in all human beings, often give people a round or “chubby” appearance. Bichectomy surgery is performed to reduce the size of the cheeks and define facial contours.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is usually done on an outpatient basis, which means that the patient can return home the same day. During the surgery, the surgeon makes small incisions inside the mouth, through which the Bichat pouches are accessed. The excess fat is then carefully removed and the incisions are sutured.
Bichat ball removal is popular among people who wish to have a slimmer, more defined facial profile. It is also a common option for patients seeking facial balance, especially when prominent cheeks can make other features, such as the nose and eyes, appear smaller in comparison.
It is essential that the bichectomy be performed by an experienced and certified maxillofacial or plastic surgeon, as a poorly performed procedure can lead to complications and unsatisfactory results.
The Bichectomy, beyond celebrities
Considering the good results of this surgery, bichectomy has become an attractive option not only for celebrities, but also for ordinary people who wish to refine or balance their facial features. Some of the celebrities who have decided to have their Bichat balls removed are Angelina Jolie, Kim Kardashian or Victoria Beckham.
Angelina Jolie, known for her multifaceted career as an actress and for her unparalleled beauty, has undergone several cosmetic medical treatments on her face to maintain a harmonious and youthful face. Over the years, her face has shown a subtle but significant transition to a more defined contour, which makes us suspect that at some point the ex-wife of Brad Pitt, underwent a transformative bichectomy.
Over the years we have seen how her face has been changing towards a more defined and slimmer profile which suggests that, among other things, she has had her Bichat balls removed by means of a bichectomy.
Iconic British fashion designer Victoria Beckham has established herself as one of the world’s most influential personalities. Always on the cutting edge when it comes to cosmetic treatments, it is not surprising that she has also opted to undergo a bichectomy. If we think back, during her time as the lead singer of the Spice Girls, Victoria sported a much more rounded face. Today, however, the designer has a sharper profile in harmony with the rest of her body and why not say it, with her personality. Her face reflects a perfect balance with the rest of her figure, which shows how bichectomy can favor a person’s facial aesthetic transformation.
