Will buccal fat reduction help lessen the marionette lines at the corners of my mouth? (Photo)

You are definitely a candidate for buccal fat removal. This would reduce some of the fullness in your cheeks and take some of the weight off your lower cheeks and jawline. Along with that, you would also benefit from jawline lipo. This would help to create more contour around your jawline. These two procedures are commonly done together to optimize results. Another thought for you would be a genioplasty. Have you ever thought about/been unhappy with your chin? A genioplasty would bring your chin forward and down, creating a more balance profile, while elongating your jawline and reducing the marionette lines around your mouth. Our office provides in-person or virtual consultations if you would like to discuss options further.

Based on these very limited photos it is likely that buccal fat removal would help. However, only on the basis of in person evaluation one could give you a more meaningful answer about entire issue. Hope this helps.

Premature marionette lines typically form in individuals who have a mandible that is small, or lacking in forward, projection in comparison to their maxilla.
The Buccal fat pad removal will not improve marionette lines and may lead to undesirable facial volume loss with age.
