Rate + hardmax suggestions?

[swizzie789]

Mid 20s, lean, 5'9", 140 lbs. Looking for an honest rating and whatever hardmax you'd actually prioritize for me.

Definitely open to procedures like buccal fat removal, sliding genioplasty, and chin lipo but not sure any of these are the right move for my face specifically. Not trying to throw money at procedures without a clear case for them, so tell me if I'm about to waste money on stuff I don't need.

Even when I'm at my leanest, my cheeks and under chin still seem to carry fat, seems to be genetic.

Current protocol:

• Minoxidil 5% (AM/PM, scalp)
• Dutasteride 0.5mg
• Adapalene 0.1%, Niacinamide 5%, CeraVe Eye Repair, SPF 50 daily
• Ketoconazole shampoo weekly, derma stamp 1mm weekly

Pics attached, can post more angles if useful.

Fair rating, and appreciate the honesty. Been leaner than this before, made a slight difference but not much. Cheeks/chin stay stubborn even lean, curry genetics must have something to do with it, at least slightly.

Also switching to oral minoxidil instead of topical soon so water retention might puff things up.

I'll probably get to 130-135 anyway, but feels like a losing battle to not at least consider something like buccal.
