“…These trends may also reflect changes in procedures that plastic surgeons may recommend to their patients based on emerging literature. 23 , 24 Furthermore, these limitations can influence the type and scope of statistical analyses able to be performed. In order to mitigate these limitations, recent literature that sets forth guidelines and frameworks for the use of Google Trends has emerged.…”

Background Instagram (Menlo Park, CA) has become a popular means of advertisement for aesthetic surgery procedures, influencing patients’ likelihood of undergoing a procedure. This study aims to explore public interest in aesthetic procedures before and after the Instagram platform began to obtain popularity via Google Trends (Google, Mountain View, CA), a platform with previously demonstrated utility for tracking interest in surgical procedures. Objectives We hypothesize that as a result of increased medical marketing on Instagram, there is an increase in public interest in plastic surgery elective procedures. Methods Trends in the United States for given search terms and volumes were gathered via Google Trends between April 2004 to January 2022. Search terms included popular aesthetic procedures based on the 2020 Aesthetic Plastic Surgery National Data Bank Statistics. The search volumes were normalized, and a bivariate regression analysis of panel data was then applied to the aggregate trendlines to determine if a statistically significant change in search volume occurred following the increase in user traffic of the Instagram platform. Results We found significant variations in search volume for plastic surgery procedures before and after April 2012. Blepharoplasty, Botox, brachioplasty, breast implant removal, breast reduction, brow lift, butt lift, hair transplantation, lip augmentation, male breast surgery, mastopexy, mentoplasty, otoplasty, platysmaplasty, rhinoplasty, and thighplasty (p<0.000) had statistically significant increases in search volume while buccal fat removal (p = 0.003) had a statistically significant decrease in search volume after April 2012. Conclusions We observed a significant increase in public interest in both surgical and non-surgical aesthetic procedures after Instagram gained popularity in April of 2012.

“…Exaggerated incisions can leave the tissue without adequate blood supply, leading to necrosis" [10]. "Preservation of the fascia covering the fat pad improves the prognosis and reduces surgical time, as rupture would require suction and curettage of the area, so gentle removal is essential" [1]. "The region where the buccal fat pad is located is close to two of the branches of the trigeminal nerve, the maxillary branch (which follows the entire upper jaw) and the mandibular branch (which follows the lower jaw) and care must always be taken.…”

Aims: In recent years there has been an increasing number of procedures for removing the buccal fat pad, also known as cheek reduction or face thinning surgery. Bichat buccal fat can be used as part of the therapeutic procedure in several cases of oroantral communication and in other oral surgery procedures. The objective of this case report was to demonstrate the procedure for removing the buccal fat pad for aesthetic purposes. Study Design: Case report. Place and Duration of Study: Case carried out in 2021 in a private dental office in the city of Santos-SP- Brazil. Presentation of Case: After completing the anamnesis and oral clinical assessment, the patient underwent laboratory tests for preoperative evaluation and magnetic resonance imaging of the malar region. Buccal fat pad removal is a minor procedure, and the surgical technique is considered simple and safe if performed by trained and experienced professionals. The postoperative period requires rest in the first days and limited mouth opening is a common symptom, and the use of analgesics and anti-inflammatories adequately controls any painful symptoms. Results: The procedure can be performed by a dentist if the practitioner has a local anatomical knowledge, follows the indication for each case, and take all pre and postoperative care that is necessary to avoid complications. Conlusions: When we have the correct indication, preoperative exams that indicate that everything is correct in relation to the presence of buccal fat pad and their relationship with adjacent structures and the execution of the technique with postoperative control, there is no way that professionals and patients cannot be happy with the buccal fat pad removal results.

A cirurgia de bichectomia consiste na remoção de parte do coxim adiposo bucal localizado na região jugal. Este procedimento tem tomado grande proporção entre os profissionais da área da saúde, principalmente na odontologia, popularizando-se entre o público feminino, onde pode ser indicado para finalidades estéticas e funcionais. Contudo, assim como grande parte das cirurgias, a bichectomia também é capaz de expor complicações no trans e pós-operatório. Visto isso, este estudo tem como objetivo principal explicitar as prováveis complicações associadas à bichectomia. O presente estudo foi realizado por meio de uma revisão de literatura narrativa com base em artigos pesquisados no SciELO, Portal BVS, Google Acadêmico e PubMed. Os artigos foram selecionados por ano de publicação, título, resumo e duplicação e, enfim, todos os artigos foram elegidos para a leitura completa e produção do estudo presente. 21 artigos selecionados foram obtidos a partir da pesquisa inicial de 248 artigos, no qual relatos alcançados a partir dos estudos selecionados esclarecem que as complicações de bichectomia de maior complexidade são a lesão do ducto de Stenon, secção do nervo facial, presença de infecção, assim como pode ocorrer com frequência a presença de hematoma e edema. Portanto, fatores como uma correta seleção do paciente, utilização de exames de imagem, emprego correto das técnicas cirúrgicas e correta indicação cirúrgica, colaboram para o alcance de resultados assertivos.
