One side of my face seems slightly droopier than the other side. The left side of my face seems tight and full, but the right cheek feels looser and I have a line by my nose as well as a dimple. The left does not have this. It's not super noticeable, but it bothers me. I model and feel like it shows more in photos. Is there a way to tighten the right side of my face? Or get rid of the slight line and dimple so it matches at least? I don't sleep on that side or chew on it either...

Answer: Can you tighten one side of your face? There are a number of options to improve asymmetry in the appropriate patient. Without photos and an examination, it would not be possible to provide you with valid specific suggestions for treatment.I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.Facial rejuvenation needs to be individualized. What would be an ideal approach for one patient is not necessarily the same for someone else. Based on the examination and discussion at the consultation, you should have a better understanding of the various options that can achieve the longest lasting and best cosmetic result for you.Robert Singer, MD FACSLa Jolla, California
