Is it possible to get one cheekbone fixed? I was in an accident and one of my cheekbones grew in wrong.

Asked By:miketony in Boston, MA

Quite a few years ago I broke my orbital bone and pretty much everything surrounding it so now I have a plate under my eye. My right cheekbone also grew in incorrectly, I have always had very pronounced cheekbones and the one that grew in wrong is affecting my whole facial structure. I look off, my right cheekbone is lower and at a downwards angle, the surrounding skin looks weird as well, do I have any options?
