I'm a 26 year old female who weighs 117lbs. I've always had a chubby face and have hated it. Even after losing a little weight, my face still looks so chubby and undefined. I'm almost sure I don't have enlarged masseter muscles, it just seems like I carry extra fat in my lower cheeks (plus my actual face shape doesn't help). Can you advise me on the best way to get a slimmer, more defined face please?
