It's been a month since my buccal fat removal. And I appreciate the response I got from doc Mesa re the concern I have and he was right I started working out a week after my surgery. Thats why my face seemed to be back to its normal size. Should I stop working out now cause of that? but its been a month now. I'll still wait for my face to look better in 2 months hopefully. There still is a change in my face but not that much. What procedure should I have if my cheeks look fat when i smile?
