Facial trauma involves injuries affecting the face and its underlying structures. It can result from road traffic accidents, falls, workplace incidents or other traumatic events. Injuries may include facial fractures and damage to surrounding soft tissues.
Cases involving facial injuries can raise complex medico-legal questions. These may relate to the mechanism of injury, diagnosis, imaging, treatment and subsequent outcomes. Experts may also consider nerve symptoms, functional problems, scarring and the need for further treatment.
Our oral and maxillofacial, plastic surgery and trauma expert witnesses can provide independent, evidence-based medico-legal opinions and reports. Experts may review medical records, imaging, operative documentation and follow-up records. They can also assess the nature and consequences of the injuries.
