Can a chin implant and buccal fat removal on right side (left in photos) create the symmetry I am looking for? (Photos)

Jubilant604136Jan 15, 2022

My facial symmetry was damaged in an accident that resulted in lopsided smile and one side of face to have a puffier appearance. From the photos, the largest one is current.
