Hi everyone, I am 22 years old, female, and asian. I am considering a facial fat transfer to my midface/cheekbone area. I feel that my face has a lot of fat and a lack of definition between the lower face and cheekbones, including when I smile.

Please help me figure out whether this procedure is right for me.
