Will buccal fat removal help me? (Photos)

Bright539114Jul 3, 2022
Hi all, since I’ve been 14 I’ve always had a “fat/round face.” To this day, I have to get haircuts with more hair on top, and shorter on sides to give the illusion that my face is slimmer. I workout and I’m in great physical shape, it’s just my face that’s round. I hate it. Will this procedure work for me? Will this help to make my face look slimmer and not as round? Or would this be a mistake ?

Hi, Friendly579647 Your left side looks thinner than your left when I inspect your photo. Unfortunately this photo is insufficient for a good evaluation. I need more photos taken from different angles and including the eyes if possible.
