This is my latest formcheck at about 87kg, I know its not including legs but im estimating a realistic 17-18% BF.
At 83,5kg now and still my face appears to be very round and puffy, with diet, sodium and sleep in check.

I belive most likely is that i just have bad fat destribution or/and am pretty boneless.
Either way i have a really bad double chin no matter how skinny i am (used to be underweight 50kg on about the same height, with the same puffy face) so Ive been planning to use aqualyx on my chin. Im thinking on using 6-8ml for my first time.

and am debating wether itll help with my roundness in my cheecks.


The part Im unsure about is my cheeks/lower cheek area. In the videos it looks to me like a lot of the fullness is held beside the mouth/lower cheeks, but I cant tell whether this is superficial fat that could realistically respond to aqualyx, buccal fat, water retention, or just weak bone structure making the soft tissue look worse.
Would Aqualyx in the cheek/lower cheek area make sense here, or would it likely be a bad idea / low reward because the fullness is more buccal or face structure related?
And yes, I am very much aware my barber has fucked me up, you dont have to mention..

Id appreciate any constructive critism

Your bone structure is actually fine — good gonions, decent chin, maxilla looks okay. So the puffiness isn't from weak bones. If you had the same round face at 50kg, it's likely thick skin, stubborn buccal fat, or water retention. Aqualyx on the chin could help if there's superficial fat there. For the cheeks — if it's buccal fat, Aqualyx won't do much, you'd need buccal fat removal. If it's water retention, check your sodium, potassium, and maybe try a diuretic. But honestly, with good bones underneath, leaning out more and giving it time might solve a lot of it

Shit that is great to hear, i mean i doubt its water retention i went from eating 650g carbs a day on the bulk to a mere 300g on on training days and 210g on rest days. I am the most flat ive been in a while in the videos.
Is there any reliable way to determine wether its superficial fat or buccal?
I appreciate your answer alot.

If you were at 50kg and still had the same roundness, it's almost certainly buccal fat or genetics. Superficial fat would've disappeared at that weight. The only reliable way to know for sure is to get lean enough to see your actual facial structure — but if you already saw the same puffiness at 50kg, that's your answer. Buccal fat removal would be the fix if it bothers you that much
