Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from Buccal fat removal, this is a good option to contour the face. Buccal fat excision can be done comfortably, awake, under local anesthesia in under an hour. The results are long lasting and the recover is quick. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for proper evaluation.

You have very nice skin. That is great news. somebody with your facial contours typically does very well with buccal fat pad sculpting and/or neck and jawline defining liposuction. The combination is one of my favorite procedures.    It is all about having volume in the right places and people with nice skin often are able to get the best outcomes!

Find a surgeon you trust and be clear with your goals.
Best of luck,
DrC

We would go inside your office in a brief office procedure, remove the fat that is causing the "hamster cheeks", and then put in 2-4 small dissolving stitches. People look better even 30 minutes later.  Watch the videos to learn more.
