Asymmetrical Face

Everyone has slight asymmetry between the left and right sides of their faces. However, too much asymmetry is considered unattractive. You can self-diagnose for asymmetry if you look for slanted lips, jaw, eye line, the center line of your front teeth and mouth. Often imbalance in the face is from birth but it can also be caused by physical impact, chewing habits (chewing with only one side of the mouth) and damaged teeth. Seoul Guide Medical can analyze your face and we can consult you on whether or not you qualify for asymmetrical face correction surgery. To correct this issue, square jaw reduction or genio- osteotomy is done where part of the jaw and or chin is shaved and removed to achieve balance. For severe cases, Two Jaw Surgery is performed working on the upper and lower jaw and remove jaw bone where needed. Two Jaw Surgery can only be done by a specialist and not all people qualify for it. Contact SGM now to see if you qualify.
