About
A bichectomy is a plastic surgery designed to narrow out the mid to lower part of the face. Sometimes referred to as “the Hollywood cheek”, a bichectomy removes the buccal fat of the cheeks, resulting in prominent cheekbones, a better-defined jaw, and an overall slimmer, more sculpted look..

Maria –
Genetically, I have very large cheeks. I’m not actually overweight, but my cheeks were bothering me a lot. I had to choose my doctor well because I was going to have surgery on my face. When I consulted with doctor Gülden, I was absolutely sure who I should choose. The hospital team and the doctor were very kind, they took very good care of me.
BONNIE –
I would recommend Doctor Gülden to anyone who wants to have bichectomy surgery. She’s really good at her job. I described the face shape I wanted before the surgery. The edema of my face is gone and it looks very natural
