How Does Bell's Palsy Treatment Work?
At PRICK’D Med Spa, your treatment journey begins with a detailed consultation. We’ll assess your facial movement, symmetry, and muscle tone to determine where correction is needed. Depending on your unique situation, we may use neuromodulators to relax overcompensating muscles or dermal fillers to restore lost volume and improve alignment on the affected side of the face.
Our skilled practitioners take a conservative, balanced approach, treating one side of the face differently from the other to create harmony without freezing expression. Treatments are completed in approximately 30 to 45 minutes, and results gradually appear over the following days. Clients with chronic Bell’s Palsy or those who have persisted for years may benefit from multiple sessions over time.
The goal isn’t perfection—it’s progress: improved function, greater symmetry, and a restored sense of control and confidence in one’s facial appearance.
