The human face is not symmetrical on anyone. During embryological development, the two sides of the face develop independently from each other and eventually fuse in the midline. Facial asymmetry is primarily based on bone structure. Soft tissue tends to be very consistent from person to person and consistent from the left to the right. On most individuals, the left orbital socket or eyeball sits higher on the left then on the right. The brow likewise tends to sit higher on the left side on most individuals. The human brain is accustomed to seeing people with facial asymmetry as being normal because it is. In fact seeing computer generated Images of people with perfect facial symmetry has an odd unfamiliar appearance. Facial symmetry is not aesthetically desirable or better. Facial beauty is not based on symmetry, but rather based on balance. Facial asymmetry should be accepted as normal and not treated. Because asymmetry is primarily based in skeletal structure, any attempt at soft tissue manipulation to treat facial asymmetry typically simply creates two separate asymmetries which typically don’t match each other very well at all. Taking the facial skeletal structure apart to create symmetry is not appropriate unless someone has a genuine facial deformity. All people have facial asymmetry. The fact that you don’t notice it is a testament to the fact that the brain is accustomed to seeing this as being normal. Best,Mats Hagstrom, MD
