Several Asymmetries, What Can Be Done! (photo)

I have many asymmetries that I think are all related. They drive me nuts! 1 My LFT face is more sunken or less full than RT, thus... 2 LFT eye appears smaller or HIGHER than the RT. Can I lower my left eye safely? Surgery? Other methods? 3 The RT Jaw is either larger or starts from a lower point than the LFT as my whole mouth is out of kilter w/my nose/face. Jaw surgery? 4 Last, my nose drifts towards my sunken LFT face and appears crooked where it meets the brow. Solutions? Help SO appreciated!

Most people have facial asymmetry, which is more noticable in photographs than "in person" Why?

As a facial plastic surgeon, people are coming in for facial analysis for treatment of their noses, faces, chins etc. Most people have at leasty minor facial asymmetry. Very often they will comment that their faces look more crooked in photos than in real life. Why is that? We are much more used to the way we look in the mirror. You look in the mirror many times a day; brushing your teeth, coming your hair, putting on aftershave or makeup. We rarely look at our faces up close in photos... more

Several Asymmetries, What Can Be Done!

Yes your photos shows genetic mild asymmetry of the face. Best to have a complete work up in person with facial scans to determine the bony involvement and the muscle/soft tissue issues.

Facial Asymmetries

Although perfect symmetry would be great, I have never seen a patient who presents with this level of perfection. In addition, I also have never seen a patient with perfect symmetry after successful surgery. With this in mind, I do see some rather mild asymmetries also on your face. They can be improved but I would only recommend this if you "better" represents an acceptable goal for treatment. I would start with non-surgical options such as injectable fillers. more
