Facial paralysis rehabilitation has evolved into a multidisciplinary and rapidly expanding field driven by innovations in surgical reanimation, neuroplasticity-based therapy, and computational assessment. However, research output remains geographically concentrated, international collaboration rates are modest, and high-quality comparative effectiveness trials are limited. Future priorities include global research capacity building, standardized outcome measurement, long-term follow-up studies, and real-world evaluation of technology-assisted interventions.
