Would buccal fat removal help me achieve a more balanced face? (photos)

Young people with very cheek-heavy faces may appear a bit unusual. This is because a youthful face typically has a V-shape. When someone has a bottom-heavy face, it can result in a square or round appearance, which looks less attractive and youthful. The most common cause of a cheek-heavy face is enlarged buccal fat pads. These are pockets of fat located in the lower anterior face, causing chubby cheeks and a squarish or round appearance. When buccal fat pads are enlarged from an early age, they are usually genetically determined and resistant to reduction through diet and exercise. Buccal fat removal can help achieve a more balanced appearance by removing the large buccal fat pads, shifting the face from a square or round appearance to a more V-shape, which is generally considered more attractive and youthful.

I hope this helps!
