I've asked this question before and I want to know the best way to remove them. I don't think buccal pad removal is what I need. I've also heard a small cannula liposuction from a small incision from the corner of the mouth but wouldn't that be a high risk of nerve damage in the face? What's my best option?
Answer: Cheek fat removal I do not recommend buccal fat pad removal. I also do not recommend liposuction in the face. Both have a high rate of dissatisfaction and potential medical complications in my humble opinion. Often a little weight loss will take care of the little bit of excess tissue you see, since you're young and your skin is elastic and in great shape.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Perioral Mounds and Skin Tightening I would opt for nonsurgical tightening with Morpheus, Yag laser, Venus Viva RF, and Ultherapy first and then consider a longterm solution with buccal fat removal. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Liposuction face Hello. We don't try to do liposuction of the face for all of these reasons including nerve damage. You can try some noninvasive options to see if those help you ( besides some weight loss). Good luck

Answer: Perioral mounds - How can I get rid of them? There is significant risk of nerve damage if liposuction is done in the area around the corner of the mouth and jaw. Such injury could create a permanent paralysis and crooked smile and you should not even consider liposuction in this area. If you were older a facelift might lift this tissue but you are too young for that procedure.

Answer: Successful treatment of Peri oral mounds We are so happy you asked about Perioral mounds. This is an area of great interest to us as well. We performed a study that we then published about the subject. This will give you additional information including before and after pictures of our results. Since the time we published this we have designed even better instrumentation for the treatment that is very small and delicate. We are enthusiastic about results and hope you enjoy the study.
