Facial Paralysis Rehabilitation Techniques

Derived from the second edition of the world-famous The Facial Nerve, this targeted new
book offers the most comprehensive approach to rehabilitating patients with acute and longstanding facial paralysis. Representing more than 30 years experience of doctors who have
performed over 3,000 surgical procedures, it begins with a history of facial rehabilitative
surgery, and then focuses on approaches that have proven to be successful over the years.
For each surgical operation, you’ll get key details on patient selection, indications,
contraindications, complications, and more. The book provides step-by-step instructions for
the techniques, with more than 1,000 illustrations to demonstrate the procedures. Plus, you’ll
find valuable tips on non-surgical methods of enhancing the results of the procedures, such
as makeup, hair styling, or choice of clothing. All reconstructive surgeons–oral-maxillofacial,
opthalmoplastic, facial plastic, skull base, otolaryngologic, and neuro–will find this text to be a
concise and appealing guide to treating facial paralysis. Residents will also benefit from the
wealth of information provided here.
