Surgical And Non-Surgical Options To Correct Asymmetrical Face

Surgical and Non-Surgical Options to Correct Asymmetrical Face

Most people naturally have facial features that are slightly asymmetrical or off-center, but for many men and women there are certain features that cause them to feel unattractive and unhappy with their outward appearance, and these can occur naturally or as a result of traumatic life event or disease.

There are several cosmetic procedures available that can help to make the face appear to be more symmetrical, including surgery, injections, lifts, and facial liposuction.

Surgical Solutions

There is a large selection of surgical options that can be performed separately over time or some can be done at the same time:

1. If your nose is uneven or misshapen, you can undergo rhinoplasty (nose job) to re-shape and correct the problem.

2. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty removes sagging skin and fat deposits from the upper eyelid.

A rhytidectomy (face lift), will provide renewed tightness and evenness to your entire face. You can also have a localized brow lift or neck lift to improve balance.

3. A cheek augmentation provides the opportunity to have more prominent cheekbones through the insertion of an implant to harmonize features.

4. Chin augmentation can make your chin appear more prominent and add to the overall symmetry of your profile.

Liposuction

Facial liposuction requires small incisions through which a tool is inserted that sucks out and removes unwanted fat deposits in the cheeks and chin. This helps to contour and sculpt the face into its desired shape.

Injections

Cosmetic injections firm the skin and can be used to even out facial features. Some are fillers that can be used to fill in or plump targeted areas.

While there are a variety of options available to you, it is not advisable for one person to undergo all of or the majority of these procedures, especially not all at once or on a very short timeline. It can take weeks or months to see the final effects of a procedure, so always follow the advice of your surgeon and take your time with the entire process.

If you rush into the decision, you may end up wishing you hadn't undergone any of the procedures. It is also important to be aware of the risks associated with each treatment and with surgery in general, such as infection and reactions to anesthesia. If you are sure that you want to go under the knife, choose a surgeon who you feel comfortable with and who has a good reputation in facial cosmetic surgery.
