What is facial asymmetry?

Facial asymmetry is referred to cases where the central line of the face is twisted due to the imbalance between the left and the right side of the face.



In case there is an imbalance between the left and the right side of the face while having different left and right jawlines, in case only the left and right jaw lines differ, and in the case where there is also a lantern jaw or protruded mouth, the appropriate surgical method must be chosen considering the underlying causes for facial asymmetry.
