Before surgery, I was so self-conscious about my cheekbones that I couldn’t look at photos taken by other people, and reducing my cheekbones was absolutely essential in photos I took myself. Every time I looked in the mirror, I covered my cheekbones with my fingers and thought, “I would be pretty if only it were like this.” I went around hiding them with my hair, and whenever the wind lifted my hair, I felt stressed day after day.
At first I looked into cheekbone reduction, but I was afraid of touching the bone and worried about side effects, so I couldn’t make up my mind. Then I saw one video that changed my life. It said that if a lot can be grabbed when you hold the cheekbone with your hand, and it feels soft and sinks when pressed, it is not bone but “fat.” After that, I kept researching cheekbone fat suction. Wow, it seemed worth trying.
I visited a famous specialist. The coordinator said she had also had cheekbone fat suction there, and the doctor was so kind and gentle that I scheduled surgery immediately without considering other hospitals. I took photos on the way to surgery, and even while taking them I thought my face shape looked truly awful and hopeless.
Surgery process The surgery itself seemed to take about 20–30 minutes, and it was done under twilight sedation. After surgery, the doctor said, “Wow, I removed a huge amount of fat. This is probably a record, isn’t it?” Just hearing that made me so happy.. I wore a band like a face wrap, went home, and slept.
After surgery These are photos taken immediately after removing the band the next day. There was bruising, but almost no swelling. Even allowing for some swelling, I was extremely satisfied. I thought, “It’s already this good, and the swelling will still go down?” The bruising lasted about two weeks.
A few days ago I went in for double-eyelid surgery and took photos for documentation. I don’t know about my eyes, but I really loved my face shape, and suddenly felt happy, so I’m leaving this review.. I didn’t retouch anything.
If you’re self-conscious about your cheekbones and can grab a lot of soft tissue when you pinch them, consider cheekbone fat suction. I’m truly so satisfied. I feel like I was reborn.
