Am I a candidate for buccal fat removal? (Photo)

Thank you for your pictures. From your pictures, I can tell that you will benefit from buccal fat removal. This procedure will thin your cheeks, especially in the area of the cheek hollows. We surgically remove the fat pads located in the cheeks with local anesthesia so it's an easy and painless procedure. This procedure will ensure a better definition of the cheeks and a slimmer shape to your face. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question and for providing photos. Buccal fat removal can reduce excess fullness beneath the cheekbones to sculpt and define the cheeks and jawline. Since the buccal fat pad doesn’t regrow even with weight fluctuations, the results of this procedure are permanent.
This procedure may also reduce the weight carried around the mouth and have a positive effect on the nasolabial folds and jowls you’re referring to. However, another procedure such as a mini facelift may need to be combined with the buccal lipectomy to ensure optimal results. The best way to know for sure is by scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to conduct a physical exam and determine the best course of action to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

I think you would be a good candidate for a buccal fat removal which can slim the lower face. It may not completely get rid of the jowl appearance, but is a good starting point. To be sure to improve the jowl appearance would be a lower facelift if that area bothers you enough after trying a buccal fat reduction

Thank you for your question. Based on the picture what I recommend you is chin liposuction + buccal fat removal to make your face look slimiest, also I recommend you upper blepharoplasty to remove the skin excess of your upper eyelid, nasolabial folds fat transfer to remove the mark expression between your mouth and nose.

Kind regards,

Dear Cute374250,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from buccal fat removal. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
