Can facial muscles be repaired? Is there any treatment you would recommend?

Asked By:whynan in East Perth, AU

Some 10 years ago I received a blunt trauma to the side of my head right beside my left eye. Since then the left side of my face has sagged and it is visible compared to the right side of my face. My cheek has also sagged, but within my cheek there is a large band of what feels like muscle. As well as this my eyelids have both also headed "south". My face feels "heavy" and uncomfortable, not to mention the issues with dry eyes etc...
