I am 28 years old and for as long as I can remember, I have always had a wide smile that cause my cheeks to go beyond my jawline and even make my eyes appear half open when I smile. I work out 3-4 days a week and have a healthy diet (I even have a slightly visible 6 pack) but for some reason and I cant seem to lose weight in my face or have it have a slimmer appearance. When I am not smiling or talking, my appearance is fine but when i avoid smiling due to it feeling unflattering. What procedure can assist me with trimming down my face and achieving a more chiseled appearance?
I am a 33 year old, looking for advice on what procedure(s) to get. I feel self conscious when I smile because my cheeks get very wide and my face looks pear shaped. Im not sure if buccal fat would help with this. I also feel that my nose is disproportionate to my face and have been interested in a nose job for a long time. Any advice on balancing out my face would be much appreciated.
Hello, I have a bulky lower face and despite, getting masseter Botox on a yearly basis, my face is still very fat. I have a bmi of 20 and I'm not overweight. There is a lot of fact in my lower cheeks that area, am I good candidate for buccal fat removal?
I have read study that said liposuction was found to cause compensatory increase in visceral fat after liposuction. Since both deep neck fat and buccal fat would classify as visceral deeper fat. Does this mean it could increase?? I have noticed my cheeks Im chubbier than years ago. In 2012 I had lipo on abdomen and flanks. On 2023, I did chest and jawline. Although my weight is higher than years ago. I noticed my face looks chubbier and my belly also sticks out more than before. Maybe this means im a good candidate for buccal fat reduction as the lipo may have enlarged it Also noticed my double chin area is not as tight after the lipo maybe it caused an increase in deep neck fat
Is there a reason more doctors - even those very experienced with fat grafting - do not place fat back into the anatomical buccal space (between the muscle and lining)? I only know of one doctor who does and I'm wondering if there is some heightened risk or something and that's why most don't.
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.
I have chubby cheeks even though I'm skinny, which makes my nasolabial folds very prominent. This cheek fat doesn't seem to go away with agemy sister (37) and my mom (62) have the exact same chubby cheeks, even though theyre both very fit. What would I need a mini facelift, buccal fat removal, or some liposuction? Also, my neck looks a bit oddit seems directly attached to my chin. I don't think there's much fat there; it feels mostly like skin, but without any noticeable laxity. I really have no idea what could be done for my neck.
I had buccal fat removal and cheek liposuction 4 years ago. A lot of the fat has returned despite me staying a healthy weight. Should I get more cheek liposuction to get rid of more fat?
My face has always been very full. I an also of normal weight so its not very resistant to weight loss. The problem is when I smile and my face gets wider than the size of the rest of my face. I wanna know what my best treatment options are to get rid of all the fullness?
II really dont like my side profile because of the way my cheek and buccal fat looks like it make it appear like deep marriott lines. What can I do to improve the appearance I want to look flat and lifted. Ill add the photos from the front as well , I like my face from front my only issue is the side view. Also would like more sculpted look with less visible double chin.
