The bichat ball (BB) was discovered by the French anatomist Marie Fran?ois Xavier Bichat, who in turn is defined as an encapsulated structure that presents in its content a type of specialized fat, which is located between buccinator and masseter. Case Report: Female patient, 22-year-old feoderma, attended at a private dental clinic, arrived with the main complaint that her face had the oval aspect and wanted to perform a surgery for the removal of bichat balls. A physical examination was performed palpating the buccal, infraorbital and zygomatic regions. Subsequently, the patient was informed about this procedure of facial harmonization, highlighting the complications that can arise trans and post-surgical and this is a procedure that does not offer predictability of the outcome. Final Considerations: Bichectomy is a surgical procedure of low complexity and presents excellent results in the current pattern of facial aesthetics, however, this procedure must be performed with criteria, as well as the consent of the dental surgeon as noble structures closely related to the place of surgery.
