Will buccal fat removal help achieve my mother's chiselled look? (photo)

Buccal fat pad removal may well help with debulking the lower cheeks and improving shape and contour. In my experience, with as much as can be assessed with photos, I think you would be a good candidate for this.
You should have a consultation in the first instance with a well trained, fully accredited Plastic Surgeon with before and after photo sets you like and good patient reviews.

The question that you are asking is predominantly about a level of contrast similar to your mother's features.  One of the differences is related to the shape and strength of the jawline which is squarer in your mother.  This means that the cheekbone and the jawline are the prominences and the space between them sinks in producing a shadow. There is no doubt that buccal fat reduction can enhance the contrast in your situation,  but will most likely fall short of the level of definition that you are describing. A degree of augmentation along the jaw line and possibly cheekbones using filler can complement your target.An easy way to evaluate your goals is using 3D imaging and simulation,  which can detail the expected changes from buccal fat reduction as well as combination of back fat reduction and augmentation in the cheekbone or jawline or both.  This way,  you can enhance your decision accuracy for treatment.

You are an eligible candidate for buccal fat pad removal. Buccal fat pad removal is a minimal invasive procedure that usually takes place in a doctor’s office (doesn´t take longer than 20 minutes). Removing this fat pad strategically gives a sharper, chiseled and more symmetric appearance. Good candidates are patients that despite losing weight or are in their normal weigh, the volume in their cheeks area is still prominent. Combining this with chin lipo has a very powerful result. This will improve your jawline making it look more chiseled. The procedure is highly bearable with local anesthesia which is injected inside the mouth at the level of the second upper molar. At this site a small puncture incision is made and it’s carefully dissected so that no neighboring structures (nerves or vessels) are damaged until the pad is found. Once the pad is found it is pulled to the oral cavity to remove it under direct vision, thus not harming any other structures. The incision heals by itself and closes by the 4-5 day, and no sutures are needed. Factors that influence results are: amount of buccal fat pad removed (average amount is 3 cc, the size of a chestnut), healing process, wound retraction, overall tissue (amount of facial muscle and skin). The results start to show after the swelling begins to fade away, usually at 1-month post op and the end results at 3 months postop. Search for a certified plastic surgeon to do this procedure that may seem not difficult but carries risks for complications. The most common complication although rare is hematoma that is related to efforts in the immediate 3 days postop. Hematoma is a self-limiting complication that besides the size of the swelling it always resolves (takes 1 week to get better). Other complications are: infection, facial nerve damage and salivary gland duct or Stenon duct.

Treatment of ‘chubby cheeks’ cannot be achieved alone with buccal fat pad removal; a fact that I encounter time and time again when seeing patients in consultation for lower facial sculpting. My approach is to use a combined protocol that redefines aesthetic contours of the face. This includes the following: 
  
Buccal Fat Pad Removal Non-surgical Muscle-Fascia Tightening Venus Legacy or Venus Viva Ultherapy Submental Liposuction or Coolsculpting   
The combined approach is ideal. Buccal fat pad removal is a exceptional procedure that can remove excess fat from the cheek pads. Using an intraoral approach, a small incision is carried through the mucosa to remove a small fat pad within the cheek. Closure of the incisions is minimal with an absorbable suture and patients will experience some swelling post-operatively. We use SwellX tablets post treatment. Once healed, the contour of the cheek is improved and we begin Non-invasive tissue tightening to further enhance results.

Buccal fat removal allows to have a chiseled look  in patients with chubby cheeks when they do have good cheek bones. Very often, people have different bone structure to the patients ( eg. mother with prominent high cheek bones and daughter with weak cheek bones). The chiseled look after buccal fat removal depends on the cheek bones. Therefore is someone with chubby cheeks is interested in buccal fat removal, he or she should enhance their cheek bones before the procedure usually with soft tissue filler (eg. Voluma hyaluronic acid)

A buccal fat removal procedure can provide slimming in the lower face, in the lower anterior cheek region specifically. It can also help create more definition in the lower face depending on the overall bone and underlying tissue structure of the face. Based on your photos, it is possible that you are a suitable candidate for this procedure. For the enhancement of the chin and the jawline, implants, fat grafting or fillers may be recommended. It will be best to consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.Hope this helps,Ali Rıza Öreroğlu, MD FEBOPRASEuropean and Turkish Board Certified Aesthetic, Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeonIstanbul, Turkey

Thanks for your question and Pictures
The buccal fat pad is a rounded mass of fat in the middle of your cheek. It’s located between facial muscles, in the hollow area beneath your cheekbone. The size of your buccal fat pads affects your face shape.
Everyone has buccal fat pads. However, the size of buccal fat pads can vary greatly.
If you have larger buccal fat pads, you might feel like your face is too round or full.
You can be a candidate for a Buccal Pad removal surgery.
Best of Luck

Your mother had the 'advantage' of a square-shaped jawline which is a majorreason she could achieve a more chiseled facial appearance with little cheek fat. You have a much more narrow lower jawline which means fat removal alone (buccal lipectomy) is not going to achieve the same look.
