Buccal fat removal or injectables? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and photos. Kybella is approved for use under the chin to treat submental fat. I don't believe it would give you the enhancement you ask for in your description. I often perform buccal fat pad removal for patients that would like to slim the lower face. The procedure is done with local anesthesia and incisions inside the cheek to remove the small fat pads. Recovery is typically just a few days. The best way to know for sure if buccal fat pad removal is the right choice for you is by scheduling a consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon for an in-person assessment.

Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from Buccal fat removal, this is a good option to contour the face.
