Facial Plastic Surgery

Beverly Hills

When damage is caused to one’s facial nerves, this can lead to partial or complete paralysis of the face. Whether it’s a result of Bell’s Palsy, a possible birth defect, or a past surgery, a hindrance to communicating in this manner can be quite devastating. Dr. Lee can help to improve the functionality and appearance of your face by employing some of the best facial nerve surgery Beverly Hills has to provide. Facial nerve surgery can help to return your capability to move and control your facial features.

Synkinesis and muscle tightness

One frequent complaint from patients is the tightness in the muscles that can result from facial nerve paralysis, within the area of one’s neck in particular. This can be treated with Botox to alleviate the tightness.

Furthermore, while subtle, it is not uncommon for that inadvertent act of squinting the eye while smiling to be found in patients with facial nerve paralysis.

Facial asymmetry

Generally, the first noticeable trait in patients dealing with facial nerve paralysis is the asymmetry between the two sides of the face.  Symmetry can be achieved with such effective treatments as Botox, to balance the face. 

If you’re looking for more permanent results, you can discuss your surgical options with Dr. Lee during your consultation. Dr. Lee has cleverly taken techniques from facial plastic surgery and adjusted them to restore symmetry to the face. Dr. Lee has worked to perfect her techniques so that she may be able to perform some of the best facial nerve surgery Beverly Hills can provide.

Smile

Restoration of an active smile and normal resting position of the cheeks and lips is one of the most difficult goals in addressing facial nerve paralysis with functional, cosmetic, and social significance. Facial nerve paralysis of the lower face leads to sagging and asymmetry of the lips leading to oral competence and drooling. The ability to speak or eat is frequently impaired. The goal of restoring the smile, either dynamic or static, is to restore a balanced facial appearance, while correcting the functional problems caused by facial nerve paralysis.

Nose

A collapsed nasal passage can be the result of facial nerve paralysis, making it difficult to breathe. The nasal valve can be reconstructed to open up the nasal airway and restore airflow through the nose so that you may breathe easier.
