Heavily leaning towards having surgery for Hemi facial spasms. Started with an eye twitch about 7 years ago. Have been getting Botox for almost 2 years. The twitch is starting to effect my cheek and near my mouth. Looking for recommendations near me. Torrance, CA

    Hi Elena, sorry to hear of your long journey with this debilitating condition.  I am not in the US myself but would recommend you to join the Facebook Hemifacial Spasm International Support Group (where I'm an administrator).  We have lists of surgeons used in each state and members are always willing to give information based on their personal experiences.  I know for sure that there are lots of other members in CA.
