Jordan R. Conger, MD · Answer

Good morning,
I can understand your concern, however, remember that most people are asymmetric. If your goal is to improve symmetry, you can consider a surgical option called a lower eyelid blepharoplasty via a transconjunctival approach (scarless, inside your eyelid). This can remove some of the excess fat or reposition fat to help improve symmetry. As always, an in person consultation is the best way to address your particular concerns. 
I hope this helps.

All people have facial symmetry. During embryological development, the two sides of the face develop independently from each other, and eventually fuse in the midline.
The human brain is accustomed to seeing people as being a symmetrical.
Not only are peoples faces a symmetrical, but the entire body is a symmetrical.
if you thought the face should be symmetrical and you are under an incorrect impression.
Even great artists through a time he incorporated, normal natural facial a symmetry into classic works of art.
Computer generated perfectly symmetrical faces have an odd unfamiliar appearance, since no one has ever seen a symmetrical face.
Your asymmetry is very much within normal limits and there’s no need to treat this.

having a facial asymmetry, there’s not detract from facial aesthetics in anyway.
Only severe gross symmetry affects facial aesthetics. Having a facial asymmetry, there’s not detract from facial aesthetics in anyway.
Only severe gross symmetry effects facial aesthetics. Facial aesthetics are much more about balance than symmetry. In other words, symmetry is not an aesthetic ideal and the most attractive people are not more symmetrical than everyone else. 
I see no need for surgical intervention.
Best,
