Asked By:elektrikkiss in San Jose, California

i want to remove the lines on my face that have been there all my life that are exaggerated when i smile.i have these lines on my face that appear to be the result of having chubby cheeks. i have always hated them. i was wondering if i would be a good candidate for cheek implants in that area to reduce the lines and possibly another cheek implant to give me high cheekbones? or is buccal fat removal [which seems very risky] is my only option
