Buccal fat removal or cheek implants? (Photo)

Young patient with fullness of the anterior lower cheeks and weak jaw bone could benefit from both buccal fat removal and jaw able implants to achieve a more masculine and chiseled face (see link bellow). If implants might not be an option for X reason, jaw augmentation with fillers is another option 

Hello, The procedures that interest you are performed to achieve different objectives. Therefore, your aesthetic priority and budged should determine your decision on what to get first. Usually, Cheek implants would be more expensive, since the cost if the implants themselves would make total cost higher than Buccal fat pad removal. 

Based on the limited photos here, if you are looking to have more definition to your face, it seems like buccal fat removal may achieve the results you seek.  Please consult with a board certified specialist who can assist you with achieving the results you seek. 3-dimensional computer imaging can help you visualize what you may look like afterwards and serve as an important communication tool with your surgeon.

Dear sammy2811, Buccal fat removal and some filler to the cheeks would most likely provide the sculpted look you desire. I have attached a link below and video above of a patient who underwent both procedures and this will give you a good idea of how these compliment each other. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
