Among the cases Dr. Kaminer also presented a novel use of Nd:YAG bio-stimulation in the treatment of long-term facial disability caused by Bells Palsy. In the presented case he passed a low level Nd:YAG beam across the left side of the patients face and neck (the areas which had been previously disabled for two and a half years). Immediately after the treatment the patient regained some movement in the previously disabled areas. Dr. Kaminer reported that the patient regained approximately 65% of the range of his facial movement after six similar treatment sessions.
