Is it normal that when seeing pictures of my face - my face is falling on one side (my left side)? And can it be fixed? (Photo)

Facial asymmetry is the norm, not the exception. In fact, if you carefully study our faces and bodies, none of us are perfectly symmetry. The degree of asymmetry will vary from one person to another. If an individual is very bothered by their asymmetry, volume (such as fillers or fat) can often be added to the deficient side to help even things up. Using Vectra 3 dimensional imaging can be helpful in carefully evaluating the degree of asymmetry and what can be gained from volume addition.

Careful analysis of most faces will reveal some facial asymmetry.  In fact, beautiful faces are not defined by symmetry but by proportions of various facial elements. Judging by your limited photo there is nothing wrong with your rather attractive face. 

One of the areas facial plastic surgeons evaluate for is facial asymmetry.Although it appears that your face is "falling" on your left side in actuality the left side of your face is simply longer than your right side.  This is a very common feature, and so common that it is very "uncommon" to have both sides of a face precisely identical or exact mirror opposites.  The cause is based on the differences of the underlying facial bones (size, width, and thickness) and how your soft tissue (skin and underlying fatty tissue layers) rest on the bones.  There are many ways to improve facial symmetry. Treatments may include Botox, fillers (including fat augmentation), implants, and surgery.  Sometimes only one of these treatments is all that is needed and sometimes more than one is needed.  An in-person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon can help you decide on what treatment options are best for you.At our office, we use 3D imaging to help educate patients about facial asymmetry and come up with the best treatment options to improve their facial symmetry.The attached link provides more information.I hope this helps    

If you analyze the formation of the human body in its earliest stages--- that is during the neural tube stage- you will appreciate the fact that the body forms as two separate halves coming together in the midline to form the body. Therefore, it is expected that each half will not necessarily match or be the mirror image of the other. The fact is - we are not mirror images of ourselves but two halves joined in the midline. therefore, asymmetry is a rule.

Your face is symmetrical as it gets. Your face is young and attractive. There's no indication for any treatment at the present time.

Thank you for your question.The two sides of the face are never the same, and perfect symmetry is virtually impossible to achieve. The two sides of the face are like sisters but not twins, and this is a part of attractiveness and personality of the face. You have an attractive face. Do not change anything.All The Best !

Thanks for writing,Our whole boy is asymmetrical, breasts, buttocks, belly and faces. Hollywood has known this for decades as movie stars will only allow one side of their face to be photographed. Now with filler and or techniques, attempts to symmetrise the face are available.Find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can assess you face in person ( a 3-D view) vs a photo which is two-dimensional view. He / she can best tell you what they believe is obtainable and what is realistic.Good LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery

Thank you for your question and photos. You have a lovely face with a normal degree of asymmetry. I certainly don't think and type of surgery is warranted. You could consider adding a modest amount of volume to the left mid-cheek area to add cheek projection on that side and improve symmetry. Hope this helps.

Hayley, thank you for your question and your photo. You are beautiful and have a perfectly normal face. You do not need anything at all. I see a lot of faces every day, some would benefit (note benefit not need!) from work, others wouldn't. Yours definitely falls in the latter. All faces I see are asymmetrical in part, it is what gives us all individuality and character. My own face is more lopsided than yours!Enjoy your youth and beautiful looks, I am sure many would love to look like you.All the best and Happy Christmas!Dominic

Everyone has some degree of asymmetry. If you look closely enough, you will see that no one has a perfect mirror image from the right and left side of their face or body. I wouldn't recommend changing anything about your face. Your asymmetry is hardly noticeable. Thank you for sharing your photo and concerns. Best wishes.
