Facial injury

Facial injury overview

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.

Facial injury repair

Facial injury repair depends on the type of facial injury sustained. Minor bruising or swelling can take around three weeks to heal whereas a fracture to the bones can take several months to heal completely.
