Fractured Cheekbone
Posted: 08-11-07 17:19pm

Over a year ago I was sucker punched at a bar and suffered a fractured Zygomatic arch (cheekbone). Although there is no pain or discomfort the fracture never really healed properly and at times feels awkward as though something is out of place. My doctor said surgery was unnecessary but after a year of looking at my distorted cheekbone in the mirror and feeling depressed I want to do something about it. I was wondering if it was too late to get surgery and have the bone corrected

It is never too late for plastic surgery to cosmetically fix your face. Just tell your doctor you want it. He's right; you don't need the surgery to survive, so the surgery isn't necessary. However, that doesn't mean surgery is impossible, it's just not a life-saving procedure. And boosting your self-confidence and returning your face to you is certainly a good goal to have.
