title: Management of facial asymmetry.
abstract: Asymmetries of the craniofacial region encompass a multitude of diverse and potentially complex abnormalities that may be the result of numerous causes. The expression and degree of asymmetry for a given condition, although a highly variable process, is the ultimate determinant of the nature of its treatment. This article highlights some of the key features and treatment strategies for various common facial asymmetries.
