Hello! I had a sever asymmetry on my right side so my dr suggest removing a portion of my buccal fat just on the right side I am 8 months post opt and I hate it my right side looks so gaunt and drawn in compared to my left. I am particularly concerned with the upper side of my face as opposed to the lower end and was wondering if it’s possible to remove some buccal fat from my left and put it in my right side maybe a little higher up where I’m mostly concerned about? Will it stay in position?
