What can be done to address my perioral mounds? 40 y/o female (photos)

Asked By:Rosepetal83

Hello, I am a 40 year old female looking to address my peri oral mounds that seem to be getting worse every year. I am seeing more and more shadowing. I have had some plastic surgeons mention filler while others have told me they have seen filler make things worse. One plastic surgeon recommend micro liposuction. I am not even sure if it's truly fat causing these mounds as it seems to be where a lot of muscle connects when I smile. Thank you for your professional opinion.
