I have always been very self conscious about my facial asymmetry. One side of my face is significantly larger than the other. (Please see attached photo) What can I do to fix this issue? Can I get buccal fat removal from only one side of the face? Should I look into facial lipo for the larger side?

Answer: Facial asymmetry Yes, buccal fat removal may be a part of procedures to acquire more facial symmetry and thinner face. In parson evaluation and discussion about your goals and options, with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial rejuvenation, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Facial asymmetry in plastic surgery Facial asymmetry is normal and common. While buccal fat reduction, or other plastic surgery as appropriate, might be able to improve facial asymmetry in certain patients, keep in mind that asymmetry will still exist despite any procedure.Other than surgery that some of our patients choose, nonsurgical treatments with injections (relaxers and fillers) may also improve asymmetry. If you haven't already, then speaking with a facial plastic surgeon can help determine appropriate options.Best,Dr. Chaboki
