Bulge in Lower Cheek Area - can this be removed or smoothed out? (photos)

Asked By:stixnstonz34 in Las Vegas, NV

Hello, I am 33 years old, 5'2" and about 115 pounds. I have this bulge on the lower side of my right cheek. It's not really noticeable when my face is inactive, but when I purse my lips, you can especially see it. It's really bothersome to look at because it looks lumpy and not smooth. Is this buccal fat? Is it possible for this to be removed or smoothed out? I have included 3 pictures. Thank you!
