After going through several periods of prolonged/severe weight loss (years), my buccal fat pads (cheek fat) do not store/retain fat, very well. Even after a normal diet is restored. The overall appearance is mildly sunken cheeks and a definite "aged" look. More so, than natural.
As facial fat loss is the #1 contributor to an older, haggered appearance, the lack of fat accumulation in my face is disconcerting.
Here are my stats:
31 years old
White (Caucasian, western European descent)
6'3
215 lbs
BF - 20%+?
Waist - 40 inches....
Granted, I'm not in the best shape. I let myself go after university, where, at the time, i peaked at 245 @ 10% BF and 34 waist.
My diet is solid. Eat probably 2500 calories a day. I'm adequately nourished.
Not sure whats going on here. I'm "Fat" by most standards, but my face is skinny!! Ugh. When I gain fat, it just seems to go to my waist. Totally bypasses my face. And when I lose fat, I lose what little fat on my face so I look almost sick. I've actually had people say I look sick or unhealthy when I'm at 200 pounds. Which for my height, is nowhere near "unhealthy" or "sick". !?!????
As far as genetic considerations, it was never this way when I was a teen or during my twenties. Definitely had a much more natural, pleasing look. Well balanced facial fat, I suppose.
I know topical fat burners exist. How about topical fat GAINERS??
Welcome any help or suggestions.!:scared:
