What can i do if my face is not symmetrical?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Plastic surgeon: Most of us are not symmetrical. Compare your right and left thumb and you will see if you are right handed that thumb will be bigger. Your jaw muscles become overactive on one side and underactive on the other. Sometimes the asymmetry is from skeletal crossbites which need a dentist to correct. Make an appt. And find out your cause.
