Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The persistent sunken cheeks could be related to your low BMI, hormonal imbalance, chronic problems, or a genetic predisposition. You need to get yourself evaluated by your physician and have necessary investigations to find out the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
