There are three main methods to treat hemifacial spasm: medication, injection of botulinum toxin and microvascular decompression. However, except for some early effects, most drug treatments are ineffective. Botulinum toxin injection can play a control role in a certain period of time, but long-term injection will produce drug resistance, and may cause artificial facial paralysis due to facial paralysis. Among the current surgical methods, microvascular decompression is recognized as effective, and changing the surgical method has the advantages of simple operation and low risk.
Our hospital also combines neurophysiological monitoring and robots, which can greatly improve the accuracy of surgery, ensure minimal trauma and obtain the best results.
