Facial injuries are rather common in auto accidents and can be very serious, with some even resulting in long-term scarring or disfigurement. If you or a loved one has suffered a facial injury in an auto accident due to another driver’s negligence.

You may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and losses, and we at 844 See Mike are here for you every step of the way to ensure that your rights are protected.

Here are the most common types of facial injuries:

  • Broken bones – There are fourteen bones in the head, and broken or fractured facial bones can cause serious damage to the eyes, mouth, tongue, teeth, or even the brain.
  • Burns – Facial burns can be severely painful and require ongoing medical treatment and a lengthy recovery.
  • Deformities – Some facial injuries may result in temporary or permanent deformities, which can result in low self-esteem and poor self-image.
  • Eye injuries – The eyes are highly sensitive, and any direct damage to them could result in partial or complete blindness and require long-term or lifelong medical care.
  • Scars – Some facial injuries may result in temporary or permanent scarring, which can be painful for long periods of time and also result in low self-esteem.

Common damages sought by victims of facial injuries in auto accidents include current and future medical expenses, lost wages, and physical and emotional pain and suffering. Here are some considerations regarding facial injuries in auto accidents:

  • More than 50% of auto accident victims sustain a facial injury of some kind;
  • Facial reconstructive surgeries can potentially cost tens of thousands of dollars;
  • Surgeries to repair and/or conceal scars are not covered by insurance, as they are considered “cosmetic;”
  • Corrective eye surgery can also be expensive and may itself result in partial or complete blindness.
