Removal of Lower Cheek Fat?

1229anon
I'm interested in removing the fat from my lower cheek area (at the corner of my mouth and under.) I look chubby when I smile. However, in a consultation I was told that buccal fat removal would only help with the mid-face area (the arc ending right above the lip). Do I have any other options? Also, my lower left cheek is heavier than my right.
