    What caused the paralysis. 

    Did you have an accident where some of the nerve was damaged.

    I've read that taking oral steroids and antiviral medications immediately can help boost your chances of complete recovery. Physical therapy can also help strengthen your muscles and prevent permanent damage.

    For those who don’t recover fully, cosmetic surgery can help.

    Try

    Place your palms on your face, with the outer edge on your laugh lines and the bottom edges on the top of the jaw line. Use your whole palm to put pressure on your face.

    Use your lip muscles (not your hands) to push your lips together and hold for 20 seconds. ...

    Repeat the exercise 3 times
