Facial Trauma Surgery
Facial trauma surgery
From fractures to soft-tissue injury, facial trauma is treated urgently and precisely — restoring both function and appearance with a plan built around your specific injury.
OVERVIEW
Restoring function and appearance after injury
Facial injuries from fractures of the jaw, cheekbone or eye socket to soft-tissue wounds need urgent, precise assessment, since the anatomy involved affects breathing, sight, bite and appearance.
Where the injury allows, imaging is used to plan the repair in three dimensions, so both function and natural facial proportion are restored in a single, well-planned procedure.
- Restoring function — bite, breathing, vision and movement
- Re-establishing natural facial proportion after injury
- Urgent assessment when timing matters most
IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU?
You may be a candidate if…
- You have a suspected fracture of the jaw, cheek or eye socket
- You have a facial wound needing specialist repair
- You were treated elsewhere and problems remain
- You want a specialist opinion following an injury
“In trauma, timing and precision both matter. My focus is on restoring function first, and appearance alongside it — never one at the expense of the other.”
— Mr Nabeel Bhatti

COMMON QUESTIONS
Facial Trauma Surgery, answered
How quickly should a facial injury be treated?
Many facial fractures are best treated within one to two weeks of injury, before healing begins in the wrong position. Contact the office promptly for an urgent assessment.
Will there be visible scarring?
incisions are placed carefully, often inside the mouth or along natural creases, to keep visible scarring to a minimum.
Can you treat injuries first seen elsewhere?
Yes. Mr Bhatti regularly reviews patients treated elsewhere, including revision cases where problems remain.
