Fat pads around mouth...? (Photo)

February 10, 2015
Asked By:Taylor1982 in Benicia, CA

I have these small fat pads around and under the corners of my mouth. I'm not sure if they're jowls, or what you would call them. I'm only 32, but I feel like they make me look old and make my face appear bottom heavy and unattractive. I'm extremely self-conscious about it. Is it fat, or extra skin? I'd like a tighter, more contoured appearance. What procedure could help achieve this? I've heard of buccal fat pad removal, but aren't sure if that would help with this.
