A plastic surgeon told me it was a muscle and Botox could relax this muscle and make it less prominent. A non surgeon cosmetic specialist told me it could be fat and dissolved with kybella. The buldges create an ugly shadow underneath that looks unappealing. I am 35 years old and normal weight however I weigh approx 10lbs more than 3 years ago when I didn't notice the bulges than. This is why I originally thought it was fat because I only notice this after gaining 10lbs. Opinions? Thank you!
