Facial injury can occur for a wide range of reasons and can be injuries to the bones of the face, or to the tissue resulting in scarring.
Types of facial injury
Facial injuries resulting on a fractured bone often affect the nose, cheekbones, eye sockets and jaw bones. This type of facial injury is caused by sudden impacts such as those experienced in road traffic accidents.
