Before making a decision about procedures like this, it’s very important you know the reasons and you need to be 100% sure you are good with THOSE, buccal fat removal is a procedure that you can only have 1 time in your life and make a big change of your face appearance. My recommendation to my patients who are interested in this procedure is download an app where you can simulate a bichectomy or buccal fat removal and if you are in love the way you look, GET THE PROCEDURE. Hope this can helps.

Thank you for your question and photos. Buccal fat removal can improve cheek and jawline definition while reducing a rounded appearance in the lower part of the face. Since buccal fat tissue is not regrown, the results of this fat pad removal are permanent.
If you would like to experiment with changes to your appearance before undergoing a permanent surgical solution, you may benefit from Botox Cosmetic. Botox is also a great option for slenderizing the jawline. When injected into the masseter muscle, its size is reduced to provide a slimming effect to the lower third portion of the face. Results from Botox injections typically last for 3-4 months. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon or injector who can discuss your aesthetic goals with you and answer any questions you may have about either treatment option.
