What can be done about chubby lower cheeks around the mouth? (Photo)

Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from Buccal fat removal, this is a good option to contour the face. Buccal fat excision can be done comfortably, awake, under local anesthesia in under an hour. The results are long lasting and the recover is quick. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for proper evaluation.

This is likely a situation where buccal fat removal will help.  We use a tiny mouth incision to remove the fat on each side.  The entire procedure is done in the office and takes less than 30 minutes typically.You should feel fine and see benefits almost immediately.

The area to which you refer are known as the perioral mounds. They are discrete subcutaneous collections of fat that occur at the horizontal level of the mouth. They require site specific microliposuction done through a small incision inside the corners of the mouth. These area is not going to be improved by a buccal lipectomy as that fat collection is located higher up in the cheeks.
