Facial trauma

Facial trauma caused by injuries to your areas of your face are usually first treated in Accident and Emergency. Broken bones, damage to soft tissue or skin may need specialist treatment or surgical repair.

Your doctor or healthcare professional may recommend a CT scan because it is the best way for us to make an accurate diagnosis for certain conditions.

MRI scan

Your doctor or healthcare professional has recommended an MRI scan because it is the best way to make an accurate diagnosis of your condition.
