Actual RealSelf Patient Comment:

I was recommended to get buccal fat removal to achieve a more v-shaped face. I’m opposed to getting something permanent done in case I regret it later as I age. Any other less invasive options?

Dr. Persky’s Reply:  I agree with not removing your buccal fat. I would likely treat you with some lateral cheek filler (Voluma and or Sculptra.). You may also benefit from properly placed botox in your masseter muscles to slightly narrow your lower posterior cheek area (where you have red circles on your photos.) Feel free to contact my office to scheudule a complimentary in person or virtual consultation at your convenience (818 501-FACE). Good luck and be well.
