Hi there doctors, i've found that my face has been increasing in asymmetry, mostly my eyebrow and my teeth over the past 3 years or so. I've had several wisdom teeth taken out and have developed quite a few static lines on my forehead despite good oral hygiene and daily SPF.

Any recommendations would be helpful! :)
