Not posting a pic. Not like deformed level of asymmetry just my cheekbones look different, nose slightly crooked and that's it really. Look pretty good in mirror apart from nose

Yeah but do you look a lot more symmetrical in mirror?

No but neither do you.

Either: you're more sensitive to your reflection or the mirror has imperfections and is bumpy which accents asymmetries. Nothing you can ****ing do either way so who cares?!
Get some implants like Zyzz did.
That's normal, no one's face is 100% symmetrical.

That's totally normal, and most people's ID's aren't very flattering
Mine is repulsive and doesn't even look like me

Difference between visible asymmetry and symmetry

Makes sense. I was symmetrical as a child
Save up for rhinoplasty or a dermal filler injection to sort out your nose. If it bothers you THAT badly. Otherwise, live with it? I'm pretty sure a combination of bad lighting/crappy camera were the culprits though. And maybe you're just not very photogenic. Try contouring with makeup in the future. Celeb makeup artists seem to rely on that. All the best.x
