I have recently noticed how asymmetrical my face is. It is noticably more asymmetrical than average. I have a twisted nose, crooked jaw line, and off center mouth. I never had this asymmetry before puberty, so obviously I didn't age well at all. What are the causes of this terrible asymmetry and how can I fix it?this is very troubling because there is statistical data that shows that people with more symmetrical faces are better liked and are more successful in life than their asymmetrical counterparts:(

Answer: 85% of the Population is Asymmetric in the Face
I'm not sure what you're experiencing but tightness 1 1/2 years after a facelift is decidedly uncommon. I wonder if the plastic surgeon used any foreign material in the facelift.
Nerve injury after laser lift should improve by 6 weeks. If it does not a more permanent injury may be present. Direct current electrical muscle stimulation should be tried if no recovery at 6 weeks.
It is unusual for an incisionline to open after 5 months. It’s most likely an ingrown hair or a retainedsuture that your body is trying to reject. Please visit your plastic surgeonfor treatment.
