The cheek pads at the sides of my nose give me pronounced nasolabial folds. When I press my finger against the fat pads, the folds dissapear. Is there a way to achieve this with surgery?

From what little I can see of your face, I would wager you lack midface (and especially alar base) projection which causes these folds to appear prematurely. On a face like yours, it is actually natural to have nasolabial folds like this and removing fat would age you considerably. The solution would be some combination of fat grafts, midface lift, projection rhinoplasty, and midface osteotomy, depending on what the rest of your face looks like. The indications for malar fat pad liposuction are actually pretty rare. It is easy to mistake the forest for the trees when it comes to nasolabial folds.

Orc dissolved these and added threads to the fold
