  • you guys... WTF IS THIS?! please tell me buccal fat removal is NOT the new BBL, nose job or lip filler? when are we going to stop messing with our faces? We’re not all meant to look the same! to have the exact same features. the exact same faces. when are we going to give these RIDICULOUS beauty standards the finger and say enough is enough? ladies - please don’t think your buccal fat is a flaw. that full cheeks or round faces are something to be ‘corrected’. you’re amazing. YOU DON’T NEED TO CHANGE. you don’t need to remove your cheeks to be beautiful! UGH!
    please tell me i'm not alone in thinking this lol

    It’s a bit ironic how everyone is so obsessed with youth and perfection yet they’re getting all of these procedures which make them look older and a bit odd

    When I was young, I heard that beauty standards were always whatever was the hardest to attain. When times are good and people are easily chubby, thinness is valued. When working outside was the norm, paleness was more attractive. That always stuck with me, and helped make beauty "trends" make a little more sense.

    A lot of plastic surgeons have stopped doing this I think that says a lot about the procedure.

    Honestly, I’m approaching 40 and was commonly referred to as “Chipmunk Cheeks” in my teens, and I LOVE how my face has aged. I look a decade younger than I am (part of that is taking good care of my skin, but still) and I can’t even fathom how gaunt I would look if I had done something like this in my twenties.

    Is it just me or this "removal" actually makes them look older and tired?

    This is actually insane. I’m 45 now and this has naturally happened to me. It’s something that happens with age and makes you look older. In ten to 20 years, these people will be getting surgery to put it all back in because they will look 100.

    I always hated my chubby cheeks growing up, but also have high cheekbones. when i was like 17, i agonized over the fact that my face wasn't all "chiseled" like i wanted. i'm now 29, and working out and getting older has made my cheekbones start to stand out on their own! now i wonder if i'll end up looking super hollow in ten years lmao, so i'm SUPER glad i didn't know about this procedure when i was a teenager!

    I have high cheekbones and a rather thin face so I have the "look" this procedure gives but not in an extreme way. I've lost count of the number of times I got told to eat more or someone made an ED joke around me. It's so weird to see people actually want it now and even weirder to get complimented on it. Beauty standards are wack.

    It´s so sad.. I have hollow cheeks .. and I always felt that I look way too old because of it and people kept on giving me comments on how I look sick. Last week was the first time someone gave me a compliment about it . That was the strangest feeling .. from confused to happy to worried to confused … I don’t know folks. I hate how our bodies become trendy and then they´re out of fashion again. This is just sick.

    Surgically removing buccal fat ages the face so much! Isn’t the goal “eternal youth” 🤔

    I had a bad eating disorder for years. When I was disordered, my buccal fat was gone (but, thanks Stephanie, I didn't know the name for it until this video). During that time, I was never complimented on my young looks; folks always guessed I was older than I was. Now that I'm weight-restored, everyone is shocked to learn my age-- they think I'm much younger. It also helps that I'm more energetic healthy than I was sick! ;) Buccal fat is a sign of health; you don't know that until it's gone.

    My 17-year-old daughter has a very round face, and she's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life. She could be a model (we've had offers). I would hope she wouldn't do this to herself.

    I'm all for plastic surgery, but I think a lot of people will regret doing this. It ages them, wait until they're in their 30', 40's and so on. I don't think they'll like how much it ages them when they get older.

    These trends are crazy. I’m 29 and I get mistaken for 19-20. It’s because I have chubby cheeks and a full face.

  • @dayvancowgirl

    I needed this. I've hated my cheeks since I was a kid. I remember seeing an ad in a magazine for "cool lipo" and wanting to make it a reality when I grew up. My cheeks were always so round and pointed out. Throughout my 20s I've been between hating my cheeks, tolerating them, and then considering buccal fat for them. When I turned 30, I realized that it didn't sit well with me that I wanted to change my body to feel good around others because of society standards.... but also knowing I couldn't bear my cheeks. It was an annoying place to be in. Recently, I've been more opposed to the buccal fat removal idea because I'll continue to look youthful longer. But also I just want to accept my Latin features. It has been a whirlwind of a ride. Seeing this video just sealed the deal on never considering it again. Thank you🙏🏽💗

    It will never end, Stephanie. They can’t sell us stuff unless they tell us our bodies are wrong. Why do you think beauty standards constantly change? If we’re ever satisfied then they can’t hawk us all the lotions, potions and procedures. We need to stop engaging with it and just be happy with our bodies. We’re the ones giving them the power over us.

    To be honest I have considered buccal fat removal after seeing so many celebrities having this "high fashion look". The more you see something new, the more normal it starts to feel, and then you start to compare yourself to this new norm. It's a vicious cycle because new body/face trends are coming left and right, like we don't have enough self-esteem issues already. This video was a great wake-up call.

    This is saddening because these are stunning women manipulating their faces for literally no reason

    i've always hated my chubby cheeks but honestly since the buccal fat removal trend, i learned to embrace it more, because it just looks weird and makes people look older, and they will end up "correcting" their lack of cheek fat when they are old.
