Botox is a superb way to "normalize" a face that shows asymmetry as a consequence of Bell's Palsey. Very often, the unaffected side shows hyperactive expression in an attempt to compensate for the opposite side's paralysis, and this can be relaxed into a more normal repose. However, use of Botox to achieve this effect should be done by someone with superb knowledge of facial muscle function and great experience with the finesse of Botox injection. Fillers also can be helpful in dealing with the atrophy that often accompanies long periods of disuse of some of the facial muscles.
