Are there any surgical procedures to treat my facial asymmetry? (Photo)

Question

Hi, one of my cheekbones/zygomatic bone is smaller and narrower than the other one (right side smaller). That, in adition with the jright side being a bit shorter than the other one in my jaw, makes my face look like its tilted towards one side. I know there is a certain limit on how much you can change certain parts of your face, but i would like to know if there is any surgical procedure to try and correcr this, or at least make it look less evident.

Hello, hope you are well. The gold standard method of correcting bony asymmetry like this is with custom fabricated implants. A CT scan is performed, and implant(s) are designed and created to correct the skeletal asymmetry.

If complete symmetry is your goal, custom implants using a CT can be fabricated using the side or cheek that you prefer. A mirror image is created and this will provide the greatest degree of symmetry.
