Facial asymmetry is more common than you might think.

For facial asymmetry Houston patients who are looking for a noticeable but natural-looking change, Dr. Raghu Athré offers several surgical and non-surgical solutions to restore facial symmetry and bring out the best in your facial appearance.

Facial Asymmetry Treatments at a Glance
Your Personalized Treatment for Facial Harmony
- Chin Implants: Helps reshape and realign the chin with the rest of the face. Chin augmentation can improve jaw projection and create a more defined jawline and overall balance.
- Cheek Implants: Adds volume to hollow or underdeveloped cheeks to correct facial contours and bring symmetry to the midface. Great for addressing volume loss or uneven cheekbones.
- Jawline Implants: Strengthens and evens out the jaw structure, often paired with a neck lift or deep plane facelift to reduce sagging skin and tighten the lower face.
- Facial Fat Transfer: Moves fat from one part of your body to areas of volume loss in the face. Helps correct soft tissue imbalance, reduce wrinkles, and smooth facial contours.
- Revision Rhinoplasty: For patients who've had nasal surgery that resulted in an asymmetric nose or facial imbalance. A second surgery can restore symmetry and facial harmony.

About Facial Assymetry
What is facial asymmetry treatment?
Personalized Treatment Options
Treating facial asymmetry isn't one-size-fits-all. Your face is unique, so your treatment plan should be, too. During your initial consultation, Dr. Athré will carefully evaluate your skin, bone structure, facial profile, and previous procedures (if any). He'll ask about your goals and concerns, then lay out all possible options—whether that's one procedure or multiple procedures performed together.
Depending on your specific case, your treatment plan might involve facial plastic surgery, facial fat transfer, dermal fillers, or surgical implants to build symmetry across the entire face. We often combine treatments like brow lift, eyelid surgery, or laser skin resurfacing to target both structural and surface-level concerns. The goal is a natural-looking result that helps you feel more confident every time you look in the mirror.

What aesthetic issues does a Facial Asymmetry Treatment address?
Facial asymmetry can show up in small ways, like a higher brow, uneven lips, or one eye appearing smaller than the other. Sometimes, these features are genetic. Other times, they result from trauma, aging, or past surgeries. Whatever the cause, treating asymmetry helps bring everything into alignment, enhancing facial harmony across the entire face.
Common aesthetic issues include:
- Asymmetrical Cheeks or Cheekbones: Can make one side of the face appear sunken or flat.
- Off-Center Chin or Uneven Jaw: Affects the facial profile and creates an unbalanced appearance.
- Imbalanced Facial Features From Aging: Loss of volume or elasticity can make asymmetry worse over time.
- Uneven Facial Contours After Plastic Surgery: Sometimes, revision rhinoplasty or other facial plastic surgery procedures are needed.
- Disproportion Between Upper and Lower Face: Fixable through a combination of chin implants, cheek implants, and a brow lift.
Ideal Candidates for Facial Asymmetry Treatment
These treatments are for facial asymmetry Houston patients who feel like their features don’t match or align the way they’d like:
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Athré to discuss your goals and determine if this procedure aligns with your desires.
Facial Asymmetry Treatment Recovery
Most treatments come with 1 to 2 weeks of downtime.
After facial asymmetry surgery, some swelling and bruising are normal and will fade over time. Most patients return to normal activities in about two weeks. To maintain results, it’s important to care for your skin, avoid harsh sun exposure, and follow post-treatment instructions carefully.
In many cases, results are long-lasting. Some patients choose to maintain their look with Botox and dermal fillers, especially in areas where volume may shift naturally with age.
Planning Your Procedure
Consultation and Preparation
The first step is your comprehensive consultation. Dr. Athré will examine your facial features and go over surgical and non-surgical options that could help. He’ll also look at your skin health, medical history, and previous surgeries.
Before treatment, we may ask you to stop certain medications or supplements, avoid smoking, and limit sun exposure. You'll receive specific instructions based on your treatment plan.
