Pictured: Zac Efron displays swollen face and large scar on his chin after accident which saw his jaw wired shut
He was forced to have his jaw wired shut after slipping in a puddle of water last month.
And now the 26-year-old actor has been pictured for the first time since the incident, with swollen cheeks and a large scar on his chin.
Zac appeared to be in pain as he was seen leaving a physical therapy office in Los Angeles last Tuesday afternoon.

With sunglasses on, Zac was seen gingerly sipping a green smoothie as he headed home from his appointment.
However, Zac's spirits later picked up as he was pictured riding on his skateboard after the therapy session.
It was reported last month that Zac had tripped outside his sprawling Hollywood Hills home, with a source telling E! News: 'Efron slipped at the entrance of his L.A.-area home on Sunday in a puddle of water he didn't see.'

And in addition to wiring his jaw shut, the former High School Musical star suffered from a gash so big he had to get stitches.
However, later reports suggested that Zac hadn't slipped on a puddle, but in fact had been partying at home alone before he fell into a glass coffee table.
'Zac was alone at home, and he leaned forward and fell into his coffee table,' a source close to the actor reportedly told Star magazine via RadarOnline.com.
