Patient's question:
My wife has been saying for a while that her face is fat and insists on getting a face slimming treatment. After her friend explained it to her, she went to a plastic surgery clinic and got two injections for face slimming. However, after that, my wife became unable to move her face. Seeing her like this, I am very worried and want to ask the doctor what should be done if someone suffers from facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
After detailed discussion, timely treatment is necessary, and early treatment yields better results. Small doses of oral hormones and neurotrophic drugs should be used. Acupuncture and rehabilitation therapy can be combined when necessary. It is also important to consider whether the condition is caused by a viral infection, in which case antiviral medications may be required. If treatment is delayed, there may be sequelae. Active participation in physical exercise, regulation of physical and mental health, and maintaining personal hygiene are essential.
