Facial Spasms

Some patients are unable to keep their eyes open or control their facial movements due to abnormal muscle spasms in the face. This becomes very bothersome because patients are fighting to keep their eyes open just to do daily activities.
Some of these conditions include Benign Essential Blepharospasm (BEB), Hemifacial Spasm, and facial synkinesis (due to prior trauma or facial nerve injury).

Unfortunately many of these conditions have no cure, but the symptoms can be treated with neuromodulators (such as BOTOX®) that are often covered by your medical insurance company. Surgical procedures can also improve the condition in severe cases.

Dr. Neel Kumar completed years of training in order to specialize in treating abnormal facial spasms. We will work with you to develop a care plan based on your individual case and needs.
