The left side of my face, esp cheeks, is fatter and my left jawline is bigger on my left. (Left of face is left on picture as well). Right is my dominant side. People tell me I look like I have a cotton ball on my left cheek. I want my left side to look like my right. What can I have done to achieve better symmetry of face?
Answer: Facial asymmetry Great question. EVERYONE has differences between the sides of the face. It is just a matter of degree. First question is whether the asymmetry affects the relationship of the teeth? If not, in your case I would recommend fillers to the smaller left side to match the right. Maybe consider a neuroblocker to the masseter on the right. The neuroblocker(Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) will diminish the size of the muscle in the lower face( not approved by the FDA for this purpose). Start slowly, and build to your goal or what you want. I would recommend developing a relationship with a professional who could work with you to achieve the changes you want. Lastly, the people who tell you that you look like a "cotton ball on your left cheek", they are the ones you need to avoid (I am saying that nicely). You look great, go out and have fun!!!!!!

Answer: Facial asymmetry You have mild degree of facial asymmetry that we would consider normal. It this bothers you so much best solution in your age would be augmentation of the entire left side of face with fat grafts. It works very well with young individuals. However, you should find a plastic surgeon with significant expertise in facial fat grafting and discuss your options. Good luck.

Answer: Facial Asymmetry Much of your facial asymmetry, as you have noted is in the upper cheek area. i suspect that this is due to the bone being fuller and wider join that side as well as an increased size of the buccal fat pad. A 3D CT scan would help make this diagnosis. If so, cheekbone reduction and a buccal lipectomy would be helpful for an overall cheek reduction and improvement in facial symmetry.

Answer: How to fix my asymmetric face/jawline? It's difficult to notice the asymmetry but the next step is for you to consult with a surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Facial symmetry is common and much of it not corrected with surgical intervention.
