What procedure is right for me? My chin is mildly recessive and with that my face holds a lot of excess fat.

Asked By:Joseph98 in Chicago, IL

My chin is mildly recessive and with that my face holds a lot of excess fat. I was told I should look into a silastic chin implant/advancement, but what about buccal fat removal? My lower cheeks are chubby and I would really like a more angular/masculine look. What's best for me? The last picture is what I deem as ideal.
