Facial Asymmetry Correction

Overview

Naturally, there is nothing that is perfectly symmetrical, more so in the face. The fact is, every person’s face has a certain degree or extent of asymmetry. While some cases are minor and don’t affect the overall facial appearance, others are major and bothersome. At times, severe cases are an indication of a particular underlying condition. Facial asymmetry mostly occurs due to congenital abnormalities, initial treatment or surgery, or trauma.

The major forms of facial asymmetry include uneven lower jaw, eye displacement, cheek retrusion, nasal deviations, and brow bone and forehead protrusion. Sometimes, facial asymmetry can affect the form and the normal functionality of the nose, mouth, and eyes. In such cases, facial asymmetry correction is necessary to address the issue and restore the standard structure.
