Our plan

  • Gradual Improvement: The facial nerve begins to repair, and muscle strength gradually returns, leading to improved facial symmetry.

  • Uncoordinated Movements: Irregular or abnormal facial muscle movements, such as synkinesis (involuntary simultaneous contraction), may occur.

  • Symptom Reduction: Pain and sensory disturbances tend to diminish, and the overall condition stabilizes.

  • Medication Adjustment:

    • Discontinue anti-inflammatory and antiviral drugs

    • Continue with neuro-nourishing agents and eye drops

  • Acupuncture:

    • Continue acupuncture sessions until complete recovery

  • Course Duration:

    • The overall treatment course lasts about 3–4 weeks, though some patients may fully recover within 1–2 weeks depending on their physical condition.
