Fix My Face

This comprehensive, easy-to-follow resource is a must-read for anyone with recent-onset or persistent facial paralysis due to injury of the seventh cranial nerve.

Written by a multidisciplinary team of facial nerve specialists with The Foundation for Facial Recovery, Fix My Face offers hope to patients struggling with facial palsy's many complications and uncertain outcomes by presenting a roadmap for pursuing the best possible recovery. Readers will gain:
a plan for managing symptoms
exercises to minimize synkinesis and improve circulation, function, and symmetry
an exploration of facial plastic surgery, including Botox and facial reanimation procedures

Healthcare providers on the front lines of diagnosing patients will find Fix My Face thought-provoking and helpful. Calling on research-based evidence and their own clinical results with hundreds of patients, the authors make the case for rethinking how facial palsy is treated, including:
A new approach to medications
Early intervention rather than "wait and see"
Coordinated treatment by physicians, facial plastic and oculoplastic surgeons, physical therapists, and other providers working together on behalf of the patient.
