Should I get cheek lipo or buccal fat removal?

April 28, 2020

Hello doctors, as you can see in the pictures I just left my consultation. We have decided on doing a jaw and neck lipo for the fat under my chin but I was inquiring about my cheeks too. She is recommending lipo on my face/cheeks but I'm wanting more opinions. Should I get lipo or buccal fat removal? It's mainly an issue when I smile as you see in the picture,my cheeks becoming chipmunk-y. Thank you!
