I want to reduce the fat in my lower cheeks and jawline and overall slim my face, what are my options?

ms_nicoleee
I have been on a journey to reduce my lower cheek fat. I have considered buccal removal, but I was told to not do this as I may look sunken in and I need the fat for when I become older. I have always had this fat and a round face, even at my skinniest. I’m still slim, and I’m now 31, and I’m done with it! I was going to do KyBella in the lower cheeks but my doctor told me no.. So I only did KyBella in my jowls and my double chin. I want that very slim tight jawline and heart shaped face. Lipo?
