Cheek Lift at 20 Years Old to Correct Nasolabial Folds/smiles Lines?
want a cheek lift in order to smooth the lines around my mouth because they bother me alot. They are evident in pics and not a very appealing addition to my face. In addition i have slightly downward eyes and was wondering if it was possible to pull my eyes upward. I'm not looking for a drastic change with my eyes, just would prefer them not to be angled downward. both of my parents still have chubby cheeks in there late 40's and want to have my buccal pads removed and chin implant. Thoughts? :]

Cheek lift at 20 years old?!
Greetings,
There's really two philosophies on treating facial lines/wrinkles: one, treating every line you have or, two, just treating the ones that make you look worse or older. Your nasolabial folds are part of you and contribute to a very aesthetically pleasing face and eyes - you look wonderful. If you insist on doing something, I'd start with an injectable dermal filler, such as Restylane or Juvederm, to make sure you really like your appearance more with no nasolabial...

Vertical cheek lift, canthopexy, and buccal fat removal
A minimally invasive vertical cheek lift can be performed by placing small incisions inside your mouth and your temporal hariline can be used to raise your cheeks upward, provide you with additional cheek volume, and reduce your nasolabial folds or smile lines. Your round cheek appearance can also be improved through small incisions in the mouth by removing a portion of your buccal fat pads.

You will find someone to cut you!
However, this will prove to be the biggest mistake of your young life. Are these photos current? The second image you look much heavier than the other photos. There is no surgery that will accomplish what you are looking for. Removing buccal fat will make the cheeks look gaunt and not more attractive. Buccal fat surgery was very popular 15 years ago.
