Facial asymmetry following facial reconstruction after accident - any suggestions?

shanname20.Jul 16, 2022
I got into a significant accident when I was young. Needed facial reconstruction surgery (no implants). My face is slightly asymmetrical due to this. Main concerns are my right eyebrow does not lift as high, right nostril is MUCH higher and concave than left, and lips are asymmetrical. I’ve found treatment options for everything but nostrils. Any suggestions? Thank you.
