It's been almost two years since I've started to notice my face has become noticeably more unsymmetrical. The right side of my face is fuller and more round than my left side. I've already done TMJ Botox, the pictures bellow are the year results of that. I like how my left side is slimmer and want to find out how to get my right side on the same page. Should I do buccal fat removal or will it leave me needing to get a fat transfer back to the area once I get older? I'm almost 27.
