How can I melt off my facial fat?

Question

Hey there, as a male patient I don't like my fat cheeks on my face. So I was wondering how I could have my fat cheeks reduced? I tried buccal fat removal twice but since my cheekbones are super high and I'm overweight the upper part I mean the layering surface on my cheekbones are still very prominent. Can ultherapy or hifu or thermage cpt help me get away with the facial fat? Or are there any other nonsurgical devices which can help me about my problem. I have also some submental fat.

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.
