Buccal fat excision is an appropriate surgical procedure for patients that of overly full and wide cheek areas. In common terms, it is good for patients who have chipmunk cheeks. Liposuction can be used to further slim the face. You are a patient that would need and in person consultation for a complete evaluation and explanation of the positives and negatives of this procedure in your situation. 
I hope this helps.

Buccal Fat Removal is one of the most commonly performed operations in my practice at Gryskiewicz Twin Cities Cosmetic Surgery. This is one of my favorite facial contouring procedures which creates a slimming look and reduces the appearance of chubby cheeks or “chipmunk cheeks” in the lower part of the face. This quick surgery can enhance the appearance of high cheek bones and give a more sculpted and chiseled facial look. Best of all, buccal fat pad removal is a permanent procedure and the buccal fat does not come back.
