Fat Removal Around Jaw Line for Chubby Face?

anon32329532
I have an incredibly round and chubby face. I've had buccal fat taken out and I've had cheek implants. I still feel that whenever I smile my face just looks really round, big and it bothers me. Will removal of jaw fat give a more angular face? Can a surgeon remove fat there? If not would a chin implant better correct this issue? I'm not worried about looking "gaunt" and losing fat as I age because my mom and grandma has the same issue. I'm not overweight at all so losing weight is not an option.
