what can be done for reduced face fat/debloating, im currently at 12% bf and have been at 10 before yet still got a fat face and have taken potassium supplements + im ripped as fuck + ashwagandha to reduce cortisol? recommend anything other than surgery (pride issue not financial). I’m open to hearing abt gatekept shit or extreme stupidity to have more definition.

Seems like your diet might be shit and causing you to retain water or maybe you have bad fat distribution in which case you could inject fat dissolvers or if it’s water weight try using a diuretic like furosemide

worst case scenario your boneless and no matter what you’ll lack definition but for your sake i hope it’s not the case

If your 10% bloating doesnt matter you're boneless

Pm me a pic and I can say whether it's bloat/shit fat distribution or just lack of bones (which I'm hoping isn't the case)
 
You could pm too I also have this problem at 12-13ish body fat and high potassium whole food diet
 
If youre truly 12%, and you don't have bones, the most likely scenario is that facial bones arent you're strong suit. This is definitely true if you've been to 10% and there are no bones. You can try to get to 10% again and lose water weight cause there's a small chance you just hold stubborn facial fat in your genetics, but if you get to a true 10% body fat without it, you just don't have em. Some people think they need to get to like 7-8% bodyfat as a natty to find bones they lack and it's a waste of time cause they just don't have them if they are 10% without them. Plus maintaining a bodyfat below 10% as a natty is very hard and will zap your energy.

If you haven't noticed most people don't have good facial bones. It's rare

Start saving up for facial osteotomies and implants to enhance your bone structure brother

how can i know if i “have bones”?, i’ve noticed my dad’s side of the family tend to hold more fat in the face tho. None of them is at 15% or below anyway so i can’t really tell if it’s genetics

ehh i find it inconvenient in my opinion, I have the money for it right now but it’s not my flow tbf. Changing my bone structure over a few weeks with surgeries and shit will seem very insecure and culturally unacceptable for me, can’t see myself going that route at all

Hope you’ve made your peace with your current looks level then

yea i’m not that bad looking lol im just looking to improve insanely honestly , like CL ascension
 
I have a friend who is at 7% and got no cheekbones and his jawline isn't defind so it is about bones I guess
 
but he is recessed I think

That’s a tall order even with surgery bro. You’re setting yourself up for massive disappointment if you think some magical softmaxxing technique will save you if you’re already leanmaxxed and still lack good facial definition

You will know if you get to 10% bodyfat and dont have a sharp jaw, cheek bone bumps and also a strong brow ridge in general. Look up "warrior skull" . Something like that. Often people have some of the critieria ie a browridge but not a sharp chin. You know you have good bones if you look similar to the "warrior skull" infographic
