Fixing facial asymmetry

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Surgery for drooping mouth?

My mouth droops a little on one side and I have been told by a surgeon I have an asymmetric face. The doctor actually thought I had had an accident.

What is the surgery that can correct this to give symmetry to my face and in particular to stop the side of my mouth drooping?

Everybody's face is asymmetrical to some degree.  Some more than others.  If the underlying bony architecture is very different from one side to the other, soft tissue work alone may not correct the problem sufficiently.  A photo of you would help here enormously.
