BUCCAL FAT REMOVAL

[Lazlo]

So... do you look better or worse after all this surgery?

chin is more balanced. Cheek is sunken in on one side. I look the same just a bit different. Go f**k yourself.

Lazlo , from your history I gather you had 6 mm downgraft.  Was that 6 mm both posterior and anterior?  That is a substantial movement , How has that impacted your look? Is it holding steady?

Thanks.

Fat grafting could certainly do the trick if done by the right surgeon.  You will likely have to top it off with some filler to mimic the density of the bucanator complex, but i think it can be done, AFAIK.  Keep us posted, i hope you become beautiful so u can dance in the rain.

Dunno about that, but I do show more teeth and it has remained steady. Feels good frankly on that end. Maybe relapsed a mm or two.

Yeah basically.

I was considering getting this because I always look 100x better when I suck in my cheeks. I thought it would give you a similar result.

I thought the same.  The reality is, you need bone projection to make the hollow model cheek look.

yeah TOTALLY does not work that way. It actually just creates this very f**ked up scooped out thing in your cheek that makes it look like you were mauled by parasites. Its terrible honestly. There are many doctors on the internet who just axiomatically proclaim how terrible this procedure is and I should have paid attention to them. It's hands down a terrible procedure and I'm being so emphatic because I don''t want people to suffer like I have. In fact, just think about it, as you age it will look even ten times worse.

And the worst thing is while you may be able to get fat or dermal filler to mask it, once this fat pad is gone it's totally gone and has caused a collapse in your cheek, it's not like fat on your stomach or something that can get back. It's actually not even really fat its more like a gland that is attached in a membraneous pocket of your cheek. Once removed its gone. I don't evne know if reinjecting fat in there will take.

JUST DON'T GET IT DONE!!

Lazlo, what's your consensus on jaw surgery?

[Lazlo]

Lazlo, what's your consensus on jaw surgery?

Dunno man. I mean I think it helped my case but I might have been fine iwth just a ciin-wing or genioplasty. It's not a huge aesthetic improvement, that's for sure.

Thanks for sharing your experience with buccal fat pad removal. I've seen one guy who had that procedure done and it didn't look bad - he did look a bit older than his mid-20s age, which might have related to the procedure.

In the past I had interest in this procedure and never had a surgeon recommend it. One did recommend repositioning or partially resecting the buccal fat pads.

I did have perioral liposuction which I'm pleased with- I'm less pudgy to the sides of the mouth. I had several cc's of fat removed on each side.

based on realself.com, that's one of the main reasons why this procedure is  systematically not recommended by doctors. And things go worse as you age.

I think that there might be a place for some version of the procedure (partial resection, for instance) for some individuals.  I think that it's probably not a good "definition-enhancing" choice for the large majority of people.  In that regard, I thought this was interesting:
