Getting lean and buccal fat removal saved my mental health

Did you end up doing it ?
2 people that previously had seen me like half a year ago thought that me 6 months ago is my brother lol. They said how my "brother is going to the same gym as them" and I was like confused asf cuz I know I'm going there but my actual brother does not, and then in the middle of the convo they realized it's me and they just told me that I'm so fucking chieseled now that they completely didn't recognize me lol and thought that me 6 months ago is my brother:LOL:.

I also saw two of my old friends at the gym, and as I approached them to say, I heard one of them tell the other
"Thats fucking [MY NAME] ?!"

And plenty of other comments that I look like a different person now lol.

I didn't think chieseling out can make such a big difference in appearance.

That makes me scared a bit though, cuz I'm getting a lefort 1 + fat grafting alongside cantho and that will most likely make me even more different than my old self (which is great aesthetically, but ik people will start asking a lot).

You can EASILY lie that you lost weight and thats it, but explaining some bigger procedures will be a bit more challenging, though doable. I'll most likely completely deny anything and try to change the topic.

Nice main.
Yes the pics I saw don’t lie, but I didn’t think it makes such a diff with people irl (maybe you’re an outlier)
Do you have that chiseled effect even at ur normal 12-16%bf?

Will most likely get ts with cantho and graft

I can't tell you rn, cuz last time I were like 12% bodyfat I was about 1-2 months post op and heavier, right now I might be even pushing to single digit bodyfat %. If I get a bit fatter I could tell you for sure, but even at already 1.5 months post op in mid september, people were commenting already. Maybe my face chieseled out even more because the swelling went down even more, or maybe the extra chieseling was weight loss, can't tell lol.
 
Used to be so fucking insecure about my face fat and had mental breakdowns from time to time because I was starving myself trynna reach a single digit bodyfat + crazy amounts of cardio, but my face literally looked the same. I got buccal fat removal in August + hopped on reta and I feel so much fucking better I can't even put it to words. Not to mention that people comment I've gotten so lean facially, back then when I had veins on my abs, noone commented a single thing about my face.

So fucking grateful to my surgeon and TO MY FUCKING SELF FOR WAGESLAVING THE WHOLE SUMMER SAVING UP, WORKING 9-5 EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY.

So whatever you are trying to fix, go all in on it, luck and success comes to those who try.

AND NO I DO NOT LOOK GAUNT NOR OLDER, PEOPLE STILL THINK I'M YOUNGER THAN I ACTUALLY AM.

And no I'm not sharing my results I'm sorry lol, Ik some of yall will get extremely mad, just wanted to tell yall that your situation can change and don't listen to those fearmongering idiots telling you that BFR is shit, its not and I'm so glad I got it.
What where your experiences with reta till now?

Is it actually though?
It is, bellafil-artefill is safe to use in this area and mimics buccal fat pads very well. It was created for hiv patients who lost all fat pads. Its much more effective to simulate fat pads than simulating bone. Here is a woman who lost her fat pads and filled it with permanent filler. It does a great job at it.

Buccal fat removal is bad when you're older your face will need the fat pads...
You don’t need buccal fat pads when you’re older…. Jesus you are dumb as rocks aren’t you.

It’s a good product the only issue is some people are/gain and allergic reaction to it. It’s a very small % but no good if it happens.

It’s a pmma not sure why you think it stimulates fat pads…

It looks better to have them as you age. Use your brain.

She had buccal fat to remove fat pads previously?

I said simulates, as in doing a good job at looking like fat pads.

She had hiv, which does the same thing and more, it depletes also the malar fat pad. Fixing a hollow face due lack of fat pads is much easier than creating good angular bones. The only exception are the undereye fat pads, they are a little less simple to fix and you can't use permanent fillers there, but filling hollow cheeks is very simple.
