Did you know, only 15% of human faces are considered to be symmetrical?
This means that if your face is not symmetrical and evenly proportioned, it’s actually fairly normal. 85% of us have some kind of imbalance when it comes to our faces.
However, research also tells us that having symmetrical facial features is one of the things that defines the classic view of ‘beauty’.
The good news is that there are non-surgical treatment options which can tackle asymmetrical facial features and therefore enhance the beauty aspect of your face.
The two key treatments are both injectable, so there is no need to worry about radical surgery. This is far more subtle. Recovery implications are minimal and results are very quickly achieved.
- Dermal Fillers can be used to add volume to the mid and lower face, addressing asymmetry by building up other areas. This is the main approach for addressing uneven nose shapes, chins or cheekbones
- BOTOX® anti-wrinkle injections may be an option for asymmetrical eyes or brows. These work by manipulating the fine dynamic facial muscles but can create a ‘lift’ effect which can help to even up the upper face
The great thing about these non-surgical treatments is that they can be done without drastically changing the way you look. Some clients may feel nervous due to pictures of ‘overdone’ treatments on the internet, but in the UK, there are many good practitioners who prefer their clients to retain the personality and individuality which we all have. By slight and delicate adjustment, the balance and proportions of the face can be quickly and subtly improved to create a more aesthetically pleasing outlook – so that the patient looks like the best version of themselves.
Will anyone know?
In most cases, having cosmetic treatments to improve the look of the face by adjusting facial symmetry is something that others won’t be able to put their finger on. Often, a little adjustment goes a long way in improving the overall look. So you may get compliments that you are looking nice, but only you’ll know why!
