What are these dents on my cheeks called? (Photo)

ReineroSep 8, 2019
Evening. I'm a 28 year old male who has noticed for the last year or so, these dents on my face. I was wondering what are these called and what procedure can be done to minimize them or get rid of them. These make me look about 7 years older and realized, by looking at pictures, that I had these for the last two years more or less and seems to be getting worse. I don't know if this helps but by body fat is around 27%, maybe more.

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your questions. The person best equipped to reverse what was done was your original surgeon. I suggest you return to him or her to review your concerns and discuss options. Otherwise, you are going to have to see another plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board...
