Buccal Fat Removal
Introduction to Buccal Fat Removal
Buccal fat removal is a popular, safe, and straightforward surgery that permanently slims the face and creates more defined cheek and facial contours. It is an excellent option for patients who have a round, full face with excess fat and desire a narrower, less cherubic face for personal or professional reasons. Tri Valley Plastic Surgery, offers buccal fat removal to patients in the 11820 Dublin Blvd, Dublin California 94568 area who are seeking a more defined facial appearance. Read on to learn more about buccal fat removal and schedule a consultation today at his Troy office!
What is Buccal Fat Removal?
Buccal fat removal is a minimally invasive in-office procedure that permanently decreases the fullness of the cheeks, allowing the cheekbones to appear more prominent in the facial contours. Using a local anesthetic, excess cheek fat is gently removed through a small incision in the mouth, resulting in a permanently slimmed face and improved cheek contour. The procedure results in thinning of the area just under the cheekbone and above the jawbone. Part of this soft tissue is the buccal fat, which can be reduced in size to create a more contoured, thinner facial appearance with enhanced definition in the jawline and cheekbones.
Deep Plane Facelift
What is a Deep Plane Facelift?
A deep plane facelift is an advanced facial rejuvenation technique that lifts and repositions the deeper structural layers of the face—not just the skin. By releasing key retaining ligaments and elevating the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) as a unified composite layer with the skin, the face is lifted naturally as a whole, restoring youthful contours to the cheeks, jawline, and neck without creating a tight or “pulled” appearance.
Unlike skin-only techniques, the deep plane facelift approach addresses the true anatomical causes of facial aging—descent of the midface, jowling, and loss of jawline definition—allowing for more natural movement, longer-lasting results, and smoother transitions between the face and neck. The result is not a different face, but a refreshed, more youthful version of you, with improvements that age naturally over time.
Breast Augmentation
What Is Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation is the surgical enhancement of breast volume via the use of implants or fat grafting and may also be combined with other procedures to adjust the breasts’ or areolas’ size, shape, or placement. Breast augmentation is often performed in conjunction with a breast lift or an areola reduction.
Breast augmentation in Oakland & Dublin, CA, at Tri Valley Plastic Surgery, can be done with implants (most common) or, for patients wanting a smaller change, with fat transfer. Breast augmentation can also be coupled with a breast lift as well as an areola reduction if that is desired.
Board-certified Bay Area plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Williams provides individualized breast augmentation consultations and can help you decide if it's the right breast surgery for you.

Testimonials
Dr. Steven Williams is truly exceptional and without a doubt the best of the best in his field. He is highly professional, incredibly intelligent, and at the same time very down-to-earth and compassionate. He listens carefully, respects my wishes, and offers the best advice with honesty and expertise. I trust him completely—truly with my eyes closed—and that level of trust is priceless.
His experience goes above and beyond that of any other doctor, and it clearly shows in his work. Dr. Williams has a rare gift and a true golden hand. The results I achieved were far beyond my expectations, and I could not be happier. He has an amazing ability to make women feel confident, comfortable, and truly beautiful, both inside and out.
He absolutely deserves every word of praise he receives. It is no wonder he was elected President of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons—this honor reflects his outstanding skill, leadership, and dedication to excellence. I am beyond happy with my experience and would recommend Dr. Steven Williams without hesitation. - Linda H.
I had my surgery with Dr. Philip Wasicek on February 2nd and honestly I’m just relieved he didn’t charge me extra for my 'nervous personality.' This was my first surgery ever and my first time under general anesthesia. Calling me a bit of a wreck would be a massive understatement.
He was incredible and made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. He has a very calm, supportive energy and a rock-solid steady demeanor that really helped with my pre-surgery nerves (a miracle). It’s a rare find to meet a double board-certified surgeon who is completely devoid of an ego which made the whole experience feel far less clinical and a lot more human.
I haven't had the big ‘reveal’ yet so I’m currently at that mysterious stage where I’m about 90% bandages and 10% suspense. The level of care I’ve received so far has been nothing short of elite.
A resounding 11 out of 10. If the medical board gave out awards for 'Staying Chill While the Patient Is Spiraling,' he’d have a trophy case. Absolute legend.
Also, a huge shout-out to his office staff and the OR team. They are the gold standard for kindness and made the whole experience seamless. - Neysa R.
Dr. Williams did an AMAZING job on my breast augmentation. I seriously couldn’t be happier with my results. The procedure and recovery were so easy, and I’m absolutely in love with how everything turned out.
The facility was super clean and welcoming, and the entire staff was incredible. From the front desk to the nurses who took care of me during and after my procedure, everyone was so kind, supportive, and made me feel completely comfortable. I felt taken care of every step of the way.
Highly, highly recommend Dr. Williams and his team! - Jade A.
