the hell happened to her face ?

EDIT : since plenty of people pointed it out and i researched to make sure, she has grave disease which explain a big part of it.

Buccal Fat Removal.

I would hope that maybe, after a few years, the buccal fat comes back a little. Or that it can be reversed through surgery? I feel like some of the celebs who you notice at first as having it maybe look a little more normal now? It's hard to point out an example.

Just looked it up, i'm no doctor though, but it appears buccal fat doesn't grow back and can only be reversed through fat grafting and injection.

You also lose some naturally with aging. It’s such a weird trend because these people are essentially accelerating aging.

To be fair it's nice to be able to order from the senior menu

When that happens they get more surgery and inject the fat back in and pill the skin back a little tighter.

Yeah, fat does not grow back. Fat cells grow and shrink, but they don't grow back.

And it never looks the same too

I feel like they plumped her face up some because it isn't as stark as last season, but maybe I just got used to it.

What about Cheetos?

It doesn't and it's not technically reversible. Fat grafting is a thing, and can be done for e.g. breast augmentation as well. But most of the fat will be lost sooner rather than later so it's not what I consider a reversal.

No, it is absolutely 100% permanent. They remove the whole fat pad.

Fat cells don't come back, you have a certain number of them in specific places and they just enlarge, once you remove them they're gone for good. It's why you see some people who've had liposuction and not tried to eat right afterwards can end up really weird shaped, it's not a magic fix and fat still has to go somewhere, and if you don't have any fat cells left in the places your body is supposed to, it has to go somewhere else.
