Facial Injuries

Facial injuries include injuries to the mouth, face and jaw. They often occur in sports, on the job, as a result of violence, domestic abuse in the home, or from car accidents. They can require extensive surgery, long recovery, and even reconstructive cosmetic surgery to return one’s face to its former aesthetic state.

If you have suffered a facial injury as a result of someone else’s actions, you may have a personal injury case. The Las Vegas personal injury lawyers of Palmer & Associates, P.C. can help you attain compensation for your injuries. Call 702-888-2222 today to schedule a free initial consultation.

What to Do When a Facial Injury Occurs

In the event of a facial injury, remember to keep the following tips in mind:

• If the person injured is unconscious or severely dizzy/nauseous, call 911 immediately and do not try to treat the individual before medical assistance arrives.
• Broken or seriously injured teeth, jaws or facial structure bones will need to be examined by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. With any of these injuries it is important to receive medical attention so the severity of the damage can be assessed and any necessary surgery can be performed.
• It is important to take every facial injury seriously, regardless of placement or how harmless it may seem at first. Facial injuries can impair breathing, sight, and speaking abilities. Aesthetically the input of a specialist is helpful. Even minor cuts can leave lasting scars on the face if not properly treated. With treatment the lasting visual damage resulting from a facial injury can often be minimized.
