Can fat be removed from the temple region of the face? (Photo)

February 6, 2019
Asked By:Ilmah in Ragama, 36

I am aware of surgeries where fat is grafted into the temple region of the face to regain fullness of temples which is lost due to aging. Can the opposite be done, i.e Can fat be removed form the temple region of the face? If so, can this removal be done during a buccal fat removal procedure? Please explain. Thanks in advance
