Buccal fat removal does nothing for subq fat. Most patients with chubby cheeks have both prominent fat pads and high subq %. You shrink both with weight loss, but also with aging. It's not ideal for men, as it won't allow you to get as lean as possible, you may end up overly gaunt, whereas if you have chubby cheeks, not only you will age more gracefully, but as you get ripped, your face will lean out without looking unhealthy.

In general, losing weight will normally cause some loss of fat in the face as well as the body. This would be true in someone who has not had buccal fat removal and in someone who has had the procedure. So, I would expect that if you lost weight, you would see your face become less chubby.
It is very likely that a combination of liposuction of mild jowls and correction of Marionette lines with filler or nano fat grafts would created desired improvement. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in these procedures is recommended. Good luck.
