30F Asian, I want to improve my weak face structure. Chin lipo and or BFR plus cheek augmentation? (photos)

Question

30F Asian. I’m wondering what procedures I need to undergo to balance my facial features and make it more soft/feminine. I’m especially concerned about my flat and plump cheeks. Rhinoplasty is off the books but I’m interested with something like chin lipo and or BFR plus cheek augmentation. Will these procedures benefit me? TIA

The things that you mention are all possibilities to change the contours of your cheeks. Anterior cheek augmentation with simultaneous buccal fat pad reduction and even submental liposuction can all be performed together.

Thanks for your question and Pictures
The buccal fat pad is a rounded mass of fat in the middle of your cheek. It’s located between facial muscles, in the hollow area beneath your cheekbone. The size of your buccal fat pads affects your face shape.
Everyone has buccal fat pads. However, the size of buccal fat pads can vary greatly.
If you have larger buccal fat pads, you might feel like your face is too round or full.
You can be a candidate for a Buccal Pad removal surgery.
Best of Luck
