I've developed "moon face" over the past seven years, and I'm not sure why. I'm not on steroids, and I haven't had any filler treatment for some years. I'm attaching a picture from 8 years ago. I know that's a long time, but the change has been gradual but very noticeable. What can I do? What could be causing it? Desperately seeking answers, without getting anywhere.
Answer: Buccal Pad Thanks for your question 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

Answer: Moon face and chubby cheeks. What's happened to your body weight? You really need to see someone in person. Skin treatments will do nothing for you these are structural issues
