The left side of my face seems to have grown substantially lower than my right side. I'm 16. I'm also curious as to why this has happened. No-one in my family has it...

Answer: Can my asymmetrical face be fixed with surgery ?
You shouldn't sleep on your face for a while after surgery. After about 2-4 weeks, you can start to sleep on your side. In case of any problems, you should contact a Board Certified Surgeon.
A good anterior platysma repair buttressed by suturing the posterior platysma should be enough. I have abandoned the Giampappa Suture because when pulled too tight or placed incorrectly nerve compression and pain behind ear can occur.
