Bulky and Wide Face - Options? (photo)

The buccal fat shrinks with age just like fat in other areas of the face. The buccal fat pad descends with aging and becomes more visible as people age. I mainly remove buccal fat in heavier faces earlier in life. Having said that, I have had several older patients with repeated facelifts that...

In general, losing weight will normally cause some loss of fat in the face as well as the body. This would be true in someone who has not had buccal fat removal and in someone who has had the procedure. So, I would expect that if you lost weight, you would see your face become less chubby.

It is very likely that a combination of liposuction of mild jowls and correction of Marionette lines with filler or nano fat grafts would created desired improvement. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in these procedures is recommended. Good luck.
