Genetics...

[Deleted member 6764]

I've seen a lot of posts on here coming out against buccal fat removal.

It's true most people will see a substantive change in facial fat when they're sub 10% body fat, but A LOT of it is genetics. If members of your family have fat cheeks too and aren't overweight then its likely that there's not a lot you can do to change it except surgery .I've been 140 lbs at 8% body fat before and still had fat cheeks so I can definitely speak to this!

Whether buccal fat removal is effective is another debate I guess. Most surgeons stay away subcutaneous fat removal when it comes to the cheeks. Plus some that do buccal fat removal are quite conservative and don't remove the entire fat pad.I wish more surgeons would be willing to do subcutaneous cheek liposuction because its absolutely safe if its done with a small cannula.

The issue isn't that people don't have slim cheeks at single digit bodyfat. Almost everyone does and you can see it in virtually any fitness competitor as they get closer to competition time.

The issue is that most people here have never actually reached single digit bodyfat and never will. There's a big tendency among males to severely underestimate their own bodyfat. The only person I think I've ever seen at 8% with fat cheeks before was Matt Ogus.

Evaluate bodyfat visually, not from numbers. Numbers don't tell us your body composition.

@scalpel i've been single digit bodyfat and my hollow cheeks were only visible under good lighting.
