Brief Answer:
No such derangement occurs

Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am

I can certainly understand your concern

I have worked through your attached query in detail

No such facial deformities are noted as the facial bones and soft tissues are often pretty strong and don't yield to minor shearing forces.

Post your further questions if any
Thank you
