I have this unusual face fat around the cheek area. I havent seen many people with this type of face fat. My eldest brother also has it.
Facial contour, especially and younger people is primarily determined by facial bone structure. Well, that is part of the make up of the soft tissue coverage on the face fat distribution tends to be fairly consistent from person to person. There are also tissues that contribute to contour such as tension on the skin from muscles of facial expression.I don’t think your contour is directly related to having excess subcutaneous fat in this area.Plastic surgeons will have different views, including on the appropriateness of facial Liposuction.
