What is the best way to tackle jowls after cheek filler and PDO threads didn't help? And should I remove buccal fat? (photos)

Verona3
I'm 40 and in the last year or two I've developed these annoying jowls. Excuse the no-makeup close ups, but what would be the best way to tackle them? I've tried a little cheek filler & even PDO dissolving threads (not barbed ones, ones injected in with needles), but neither have helped the jowls. Someone suggested kybella into jowls, but is it the best option for me? Better than Ultherapy, HIFU, Thermage, skin needling, filler in pre-jowl etc? Also, should I get buccal fat removed?
