Botox for Hemifacial Spasm

A hemifacial spasm is a nervous and muscular disorder that affects the muscle associated with the facial nerve. Patients with hemifacial spasm experience twitch in one side of their face involuntarily. In most cases, hemifacial spasms occur when a blood vessel presses a facial nerve. Other causes include tumour and a facial nerve injury.

Hemifacial Spasm Symptoms

In the starting, Hemifacial spasm appears as small tics around eyelid, cheek, or mouth. Over time, these tics expand into other parts of your face.

The first symptom is involuntarily twitching on one side of your face. Over time, you may experience frequent twitching on other parts of the same side of your body, including:

  • Cheek
  • Eyebrow
  • The area around your mouth, including lips
  • Chin
  • Jaw
  • Upper neck

In rare cases, it can affect every muscle on one side of the face. You may experience:

  • A decrease in your ability to hear
  • Tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in your ears)
  • Pain in the ear or behind your ear

Diagnosing Hemifacial Spasm

Hemifacial spasms are constant in women over 40 years. Though it is not dangerous on its own, a continuous twitch in your face can be uncomfortable. In severe cases, hemifacial spasms can limit your ability to see or speak clearly due to the involuntary eye or mouth closing (on one side of the face).

You can treat minor hemifacial spasms at home by limiting caffeine intake and getting plenty of rest. Certain nutrients can also help reduce spasms, such as:

  • Eggs, milk, and sunlight (all are a good source of Vitamin D)
  • Magnesium (almonds and bananas)
  • Chamomile (available as tea or tablets)
  • Blueberries (contains muscle-relaxing antioxidants)

However, the best and most common treatment for hemifacial spasm is Botox. In Botox treatment, doctors inject small amounts of chemicals into your face (on the affected muscles) using needles. Botox can reduce your spasms for five to six months, after which you might need to take another injection.
