Here are the details: I have gotten buccal fat removal on both sides of my face along with facial liposuction. But for some reason the left part of my face is chubbier than the right side. How can i get rid of the fat that I am referencing on the pictures? Since I already did buccal fat removal I was thinking of doing facial liposuction to the part that I am pinching but was wondering what procedures are out there that will burn this fat off?

Answer: Chubby cheeks are screaming for more liposuction!
I think it is possible that the result may improve with time. There may be swelling from 6 months to a year. Contour irregularities after liposuction could potentially be treated with fat grafting, but an exam would be mandatory.
Excellent question. More often than not, these are due to lines, wrinkles and sagging skin. Dynamic lines can be addressed with neuromodulators such as Botox. Static lines can be treated with injectable hyaluronic acid fillers such as the Juvederm and Restylane family. Please...
Please direct this question to your plastic surgeon. Each surgeon has their own postoperative protocol to help predictable healing occur. It would not be appropriate to speculate what your surgeon would be comfortable with - just ask them. Congratulations on your procedure.
