Asked By:ayushee dash in Mumbai, IN

I'm 21 years old and I got braces with 4 teeth extractions,11 months back. (The spaces are still there and it will take a year more to close.) Consequences : I notice my cheeks have become sunken. My face was so much fuller and cheeks were chubby, but now I have no cheeks and my face looks narrow as well as elongated. Will my face ever go back to the way it was? ie. Chubby and fuller looking round face? I'm very very stressed and depressed about these changes. Please please help me.
