What can I do to have a slimmer face after already trying buccal fat removal and Botox? (photos)

January 21, 2022
Asked By:Kind861803 in Ladera Ranch, California

Hello! I always desired to have a slimmer face. I have tried buccal fat pad removal, Botox in masseters (though only 1 treatment) and none seem to work. I hope to decrease the width of my face or somehow make it appear smaller. Is there anything I can do?
