Round, plump cheeks touch us on children's faces. At the same time, such cheeks on the face of an adult do not always look attractive. In pursuit of a clear facial contour, trying to get rid of plumpness, ladies follow strict diets and lose weight, but - alas! – the shape of the cheeks does not change, they remain the same round. And the reason for this is Bish’s lumps (or, in other words, Bish’s bags).

The White Witch in the film “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” looks more like the Snow Queen. Her unearthly appearance harmonizes perfectly with the image of the villain and at first glance seems attractive. This is what allowed her to charm young Edmund Pevensie. Stylists created the perfect dress for Tilda, creating an imitation of fabric woven from snowflakes, and the crown seemed to be made of real icicles. Gradually, as the plot develops, the queen loses power over Narnia, winter is replaced by spring, and her outfit also transforms: from snow-white it becomes gray, and the ice crown melts.

Marina Alexandrova reincarnated as Empress Catherine the Great in 2014. She was well able to show the young and timid Princess Sophia to Augusta Frederick, who had to do everything according to the orders of Empress Elizabeth. It was only later that her character became stronger and her ambitions emerged. For filming in the second season, where Alexandrova’s character took the throne, she had to gain 10 kilograms to look more convincing.

The Queen of France and wife of Louis XVI is shown in Sofia Coppola’s film “Marie Antoinette” in the most grotesque image. It is known that the queen loved lavish balls, dresses and spent money from the treasury on her entertainment. Kirsten Dunst appeared in the film as a frivolous lady, wearing dresses that looked like marshmallows. All of them were made in soft pastel colors, with bows and ruffles. She had high hairstyles on her head, typical of the 18th century, and sweets that the spoiled daughter of the Austrian emperor loved so much were often glimpsed in the frame. The film did not receive very high marks from critics due to the fact that it does not contain enough historical facts, but Kirsten Dunst is a pleasure to watch.
Monica Bellucci: Mirror Queen

In the film "The Brothers Grimm" Monica Bellucci played a negative character, but how good she is in it! Some viewers probably regretted that she was killed off at the end. In the fantasy film, she showed her charm and grace in all its glory. Stylists created for her a scarlet and gold dress with a deep neckline and an unusual headdress that looked like a crown. Her luxurious long hair is also striking in the film. To create such volume and length, make-up artists used a wig. However, the actress has luxurious curls even without wigs.
Advantages and disadvantages
Removal of Bisha's lumps, like any surgical procedure, has many contraindications. Complications are possible after the procedure.
The result of the operation does not always live up to expectations. Possible changes in the face in a negative direction, aggravation of age-related changes. The negative effect cannot be corrected. These are the disadvantages of removing Bisha's lumps.
The positive side of the intervention is the successful formation of facial relief. In most cases, aesthetic and age-related problems are solved.
The manipulation is considered simple, rehabilitation takes minimal time. The procedure is low cost and can be successfully combined with other surgical interventions on the face. These are the advantages of removing Bish's lumps.

In 2012, Charlize played the role of the queen in the film Snow White and the Huntsman. For her look, 20 outfits were created that demonstrated her domineering character. Each dress took weeks of labor to create, but some appeared in the frame for just a moment. The most memorable was the black outfit in which she turned into a flock of crows.
The actress said in an interview that she liked playing the villain. She got into the role so much that she tore her abdominal muscle from screaming on the set (and this is not a joke).
Rehabilitation period
If external surgery was performed, swelling may appear on the face, but after 3-4 days it disappears, and the stitches dissolve within a week. To ensure that the rehabilitation process goes without complications, the surgeon may prescribe antibiotics, as well as medications that help relieve swelling.
In the first three days, the patient is recommended to eat only liquid foods so that the masticatory muscles do not strain. After each meal, it is necessary to rinse the mouth (this is important when performing internal surgery). You will have to sleep only on your back for a while to avoid mechanical deformation of the contour of your face.
For 3 weeks it is not recommended to scream, grimace, sing, and you should also talk less. During the entire rehabilitation period, which lasts 1 month, it is prohibited to visit the solarium, sauna, or beaches.
Cate Blanchett: Elizabeth I

“I am your queen,” Kate says at the end of The Golden Age. Indeed, her aristocratic appearance and porcelain skin made it possible to fit perfectly into the image of Elizabeth I. For this role she was nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe.
In the film, Blanchett appeared not only in luxurious dresses in the halls of the palace, the film also included scenes from the battlefield, and the queen dressed in armor. Kate admitted that the armor was real and she had a hard time wearing it. But it was even more difficult in Elizabeth I’s outfit for the coronation ceremony. For him, the costume designers built a rigid corset attached to a wooden base. In this dress, the actress had to keep her back straight and it was quite difficult to move.
Indications and contraindications for surgery
The only indication for surgery to remove Bisha's lumps is the patient's desire to aesthetically improve his appearance.
The operation is effective in the following cases:
- with a round face shape, aggravated by fat deposits in the cheeks;
- with age-related drooping of the lower part of the cheeks and the formation of skin folds;
- with an obvious visual discrepancy between too large lumps of Bish and small facial features;
- with pronounced nasolabial folds;
- as an addition to facial skin tightening, cheek and chin liposuction, etc.
Sometimes Bisha's bags are not removed, but are moved higher, under the cheekbones, in order to give additional volume to a too thin face (plasty of Bisha's bags).
Contraindications for surgery:
- age up to 25 years, since until this moment the facial skeleton is still growing and Bish’s lumps are relatively smaller;
- too thin face with thinned fat layer;
- deviation of the patient’s body weight from the norm is more than 25% (in any direction);
- planning to lose weight or, on the contrary, gain weight - surgery is possible only with stable body weight;
- inflammatory diseases localized in the neck, face, and oral cavity.
- The remaining contraindications are generally accepted for any surgery.
Before removing Bisha's lumps, in many aesthetic surgery centers the patient is offered facial modeling on a computer. This program will show how the client's face will look after removing fatty lumps. In this way, the patient will be able to decide which version of his appearance he likes best, and whether it is worth undergoing surgery at all.

In 2012, another version of Snow White was released, in which Lily Collins played the main character and Julia Roberts played the stepmother. In this film, the negative female character turned out to be more charming than Princess Snow White. The change in images of Julia Roberts' character is pleasing to the eye. Her spectacular outfits and unusual hairstyles are a real work of art. It's hard to even pick one.
How is the operation performed?
Currently, there are 2 technologies for removing Bisha's lumps - internal and external. During internal surgery, the incision through which the fat capsules will be removed is made from the inside. The surgeon dissects the mucous membrane and muscles, separates the sac from the surrounding tissues and brings it out. Then he puts stitches. Internal surgery has a significant advantage - there will be no traces of intervention on the skin.
If a complex change in appearance is planned, for example, removal of Bisha's lumps, skin tightening and, say, sewing in cheekbone implants, external surgery is performed. In this case, the surgeon can use a scalpel or laser knife, which cuts the skin in the right place (according to the purpose). Next, he cuts off the fat sac from the surrounding tissue, performs all additional manipulations, and then applies sutures.
It is not recommended to perform this operation before the age of 25. Before this age, the thickness of fat deposits can change in both directions, and the result will be distorted.

Margot Robbie also played Elizabeth I. In an interview, she admitted that it was an interesting experience - she was tired of the roles of frivolous beauties. In the 2021 film “Two Queens,” Margot got a dramatic role. If at the beginning of the film Elizabeth I looks majestic, then towards the end of the plot, in order to show the consequences of the illness, the actress was made up. The image turned out to be repulsive, but memorable.
Where are Bish's lumps on the face?
There is a stereotype that these are any accumulations of fat on the cheeks. This is not true - if you can get rid of subcutaneous fat tissue with the help of diet, massage and lipolytic injections, then the above does not affect these structures. To understand why, it is important to know where Bish's lumps are located on the face.
They lie under the deep layer of dermis between the cheek and oral cavity. A more accurate localization is above the infraorbital groove of the upper point of the lower jaw. In the lateral projection they reach the parotid salivary gland.

In 2008, Emily Blunt played the role of the young Queen Victoria, who is just ascending the throne and gaining the trust of her people. Many critics noted that the actress does not look like the prototype - she is too good for him, but the dresses were appreciated. The costume designers recreated the outfits as closely as possible to the original ones. Each of the heroine's dresses was insured for £10,000.
Lena Headey: Queen Cersei Lannister

The golden-haired and powerful queen from the series “Game of Thrones” gradually loses control over her emotions from season to season and it seems that she is about to lose her mind. She will stop at nothing to achieve her goal. There are moments in the series in which Queen Cersei walks down the street naked for the sake of atonement, but a stunt double was filmed in these scenes.
By the way, while eight seasons of the series were being filmed, Lena Headey managed to become a mother twice. However, dresses with long, wide sleeves made it possible to hide the belly. You may notice that her character often crosses her arms over her stomach, disguising her pregnancy.
Recovery period
After an operation performed with internal access, i.e. through the mucous membrane of the cheeks, the body’s recovery occurs very quickly. The entire rehabilitation period takes about a month.
Surgery leaves swelling on the face. As a result, the patient's cheeks increase in size. But this phenomenon is temporary, swelling spontaneously disappears after 2-3 days. The sutures dissolve within 5-7 days, or they are removed by the surgeon after the same period.
To prevent infectious complications, the patient is prescribed antibiotics (2 courses of 7 days each with a 5-day break). Antibacterial prophylaxis is not used after laser exposure.
Recommendations for the recovery period:
- In the first 3 days, only liquid food is allowed (broths, liquid cereals, etc.) so that the masticatory muscles do not strain. Dishes should be neither hot nor cold. In the next 2-3 weeks, you should not eat hard, spicy, salty foods. The menu consists of pureed soups, cereals, purees, soufflés. Meat and fish can be consumed in a heavily boiled form. Every time after eating, brushing your teeth and rinsing your mouth is mandatory.
- For 2-3 weeks you need to monitor your facial expressions, trying not to strain your facial muscles. It is advisable to maintain a calm expression on your face: do not grimace, do not laugh loudly, do not talk for a long time, and especially do not shout.
- To avoid accidentally touching the areas of your face that have undergone surgery while sleeping, you should only sleep on your back, on a high pillow.
- Avoid visiting the bathhouse, swimming pool, sauna, or swimming in open water for 2-3 weeks. It is better to take a shower instead of a bath.
- At the same time, reduce or eliminate, if possible, physical activity.
Following these recommendations will allow the patient to see the aesthetic effect of the operation within 2 weeks. Complete tissue healing will occur 3-5 months later.
Long-term consequences of removing Bisha's bags
Those undergoing surgery may experience undesirable consequences that are delayed. Model hollow cheeks are beautiful in youth, and in adulthood a woman is rejuvenated by a slight plumpness of her cheeks. At the age of 30-40, women experience hormonal changes associated with aging, and they cause deformation of Bisha's lumps - the cheeks are slightly retracted; if the lumps are removed, then the effect is more pronounced - the jaw becomes more massive than it could be.
