Cheek lift at 23? Or buccal fat removal and cheekbone implants? I want a more heart shaped face (Photo)

I want very prominent cheekbones and obviously lose the fat on my cheeks. I really want to see a difference, because I hate how my face looks, especially from the side. I also want a rhinoplasty, along with the other procedures. What would you suggest? Is there a procedure that can result in total cheek sculpting/contouring?

This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. Buccal fat pad gives slimming not symmetry. Masseter botox will make you slimmer and make the jawline more loose. Fillers help give shaping and contouring. If you want perfect or close to perfect symmetry...
