Getting hollow cheeks and a chiseled face takes LOTS OF TIME

[Bewusst]

To get a lean face with hollow cheeks and visible bone definition at all times and in all lighting conditions, patience is a must.
You can have visible abs, a low body fat percentage and no obvious water retention but still have an undefined face without hollow cheeks that doesn't look sharp at all.

To get a truly chiseled face it's neccessary to get rid of even the tiniest remaining stubborn fat reserves that just don't seem to respond much or only very slowly to calorie restriction, dieting and exercise. In other words, attaining a single digit body fat percentage is not enough to get hollow cheeks/a defined face.
You have to keep forcing the body to use its own fat reserves as its main source of fuel. It may take many months to even years until all the visible fat in the face is gone - and this is AFTER already having a low body fat percentage. The leaner you get the harder it'll be to achieve further fat loss so a systematic approach including things like calorie cycling, intermittent fasting, high intensity interval training, diet breaks and even drugs might become neccessary.

The only factor between you and a chiseled face is time. Lots of it. Some will get there faster than others (differences in fat cell number and distribution/metabolic efficiency etc.). It's possible to accelerate the process but this will make it much more unhealthy.
I have less fat on me now than ever before (don't want to say "lean" yet) but my face is still an undefined ugly mess without hollow cheeks and paperskin. It'll take many more months/years until I can call my face truly lean.

Maybe this helps get rid of misperceptions/myths some of you might have regarding getting hollow cheeks and a chiseled face.

Agree with you 100%, getting a lean face might be the hardest thing for me to do.

big skull + tall = huge surface area

That doesn't neccessarily make them lean or give them hollow cheeks - not sunken, hollow - though.

Or, you know, might be just shit bone projection if you need to auschwitzmaxx.

yes it does, 10% bodyfat on a 6 foot 4 guy looks drastically different to 10% on a 5 foot 8 guy, its all to do with surface area

I have a lean face, but what gave me the most definition in cheeks and made them appear more hollow was doing low carb diet. Drinkin 4 liters of water as well.

Possible but your tall guy still needs to put the work in to get lean in the first place.

lmao, if you don't have facial leanness at low BF you just have SHIT BONES, you have shit zygos, shit jaw and what you need is not losing more weight, is getting implants

 

[autistic_tendencies]

6 months to couple years

again its 100x easiler, much greater TDEE, more expendature doing the same movements, and in general better innate health to reach that height so better internal functions/ genetics

look how many tall skinny guys you see, even those who dont watch what they eat at all

I think we all know by now that being tall is better in almost every regard. But what is your point exactly? What does it have to do with my op? I literally wrote that some get lean faster so it's nothing new lol.

This. If you have sub 12% bodyfat and you dont have a sharp chiseled face you need surgery. Period.

can you have hollow cheeks with average zygos and jawline width ?
i though it was not possible

Definitely. It's mostly a matter of leanness. But good bone structure def helps ofc. Any good facial trait, including hollow cheeks, looks better with good bone structure.

 

[MentalCel]

Always had hollow cheeks and never done any dieting. Keep coping with ur subhuman bonestructure if u need diet to show bones.

 

[Deleted member 2527]

who has time/patience/dedication for this though

what about quick solutions like buccal fat removal/perioral lipo/nasolabial fat kybella injections.

 

[Okiwaga]

you just dont diet good enough still eating sugars probably and not even have lean abs

Yes, that's a way of artificially "accelerating" the process. Ofc that's an option if you have the money.

Keep in mind though that these procedures only remove fat in certain areas and not in the whole face. It could look weird if you do this with an otherwise non-lean or chubby face.

 

[BigBoy]

didnt read but killing yourself for hollow cheeks is stupid

 

[Enlil]

i disagree. it sometimes be genitic. i was born with hollow cheeks, i used to have some body fat too but still.

Intermittent fasting, 4g vit C and 8 liters of water a day for a week or two. Really It's that easy just don't stuff your face in the morning and at night, eat in a 6 hour window and let Ketosis do the rest.

Is that much vitamin c even safe?

Cope, I've been like 1-3% bodyfat my entire life and still lack hollowness because of my fucking buccal fat.

Intermittent fasting won't get you into ketosis if you eat carbs during your eating window. And a ketogenic diet is very unhealthy, at least for me. I have gallbladder problems and can't eat much fat in one sitting.

if your going to megadose vitamin c use timed release vitamin c and yes if you want to you have to drink a lot of water so you are flushing out the excess (vitamin c is a water soluble vitamin)
