Question

I am 20 years old, would I be a candidate for buccal fat removal?

Answer

In general terms, in relation to facial sculpting, I suggest a consultation using 3-D imaging and simulation, to be able to determine the degree of change that you would like to achieve.

Buccal fat reduction is one of the technique that can contribute to more sculpted appearance of the face, but not the only one and you need to understand the bigger picture in order to make a sensible decision about your treatment.
