Congenital facial palsy is a loss of facial movement due to nerve damage.
Facial paralysis on one side of the face.

Hemifacial microsomia is a congenital (present at birth) condition in which the lower half of one side of the face is underdeveloped and does not grow normally.
Bell’s palsy refers to drooping and weakness on one side of the face.
Traumatic nerve injury can cause numbness or weakness, impacting a child’s ability to move and interact with the world around them.

Congenital unilateral lower lip palsy (CULLP) is a condition that is present at birth that causes one side of the baby’s face to remain still when he or she cries.
The center is now home to the Analytical Imaging and Modeling Center which has the ability to capture images of your child’s condition in 2D, 3D and 4D. This enhancement allows the team of physicians to better plan for surgery and to ensure positive outcomes. The technology will also help the Center with ongoing research of pediatric plastic surgery procedures.
The Imaging Center, along with a world-recognized staff of physicians, makes the reconstructive plastic surgery program at Children’s Health one of the most advanced in the country.
