My sons right side of his face is slightly larger than the left will it continue to get bigger? Also can I expect other limbs to grow larger? Right now they are equally the same

hi my daughter is now 16ys and her larger side of her body always stayed larger .....age 11 she had the growth plates destroyed above her knee to stop that side growing anymore so her smaller side would catch up.which it did :)
