After arriving at the office, I searched for information online and learned that my symptoms were more consistent with facial nerve paralysis. That same evening, I visited a neurologist for evaluation and was diagnosed with facial nerve paralysis.

During the consultation, I was informed that nerve recovery is often slow and that improvement could take several months or even longer. In addition to medication, I was advised to undergo facial rehabilitation therapy. At that time, I believed that Western medicine was the only option available during the early stage of the disease.

Despite taking medication and attending rehabilitation sessions, I gradually noticed increasing weakness and asymmetry involving my mouth, eyes, eyebrows, and forehead muscles. Even my sense of taste became noticeably impaired. These developments caused me considerable anxiety.

After discussing the situation with friends and learning more about the condition, I discovered that recovery from facial nerve paralysis often takes a long time and may require prolonged rehabilitation. Hoping to improve my chances of recovery, I began exploring additional treatment options and came across patient testimonials describing successful outcomes with Dr. Wen’s acupuncture treatments.

Encouraged by these experiences, I sought treatment on the fifth day after symptom onset and committed myself to intensive therapy.

From the very beginning, I was impressed by Dr. Wen’s professionalism, skill, and encouragement. After only five consecutive treatment sessions, I began noticing significant improvements in my symptoms and regained confidence in my recovery.

Before completing ten treatment sessions, the movement of my mouth, eyes, eyebrows, and forehead had improved dramatically, and my sense of taste had almost completely returned to normal.

This was my first experience with acupuncture, and the results completely changed my perception of traditional Chinese medicine. More importantly, the experience taught me the importance of seeking treatment promptly and not delaying medical care.

I am deeply grateful to Dr. Wen for his treatment, encouragement, and support throughout my recovery journey.

If there is one lesson I would like to share with others facing a similar condition, it is this: do not delay treatment. Early action may make all the difference.

The following day, however, my symptoms became more noticeable. My eye felt uncomfortable and watery throughout the day, and my colleagues even asked whether I had developed an eye infection. Later that afternoon, while drinking a beverage, I noticed that liquid was leaking from the corner of my mouth. That evening, while brushing my teeth, I realized that I could no longer rinse my mouth properly or close my lips tightly. Looking in the mirror, I discovered that one side of my face had become visibly asymmetrical.

Frightened by the sudden changes, I searched online for possible explanations and quickly realized that my symptoms closely matched facial nerve paralysis. The diagnosis was difficult to accept, especially because I was about to have my wedding photographs taken. I could not believe this was happening at such an important time in my life.

After six days of medication and acupuncture elsewhere, I unfortunately experienced little improvement. In fact, the swelling on the affected side of my face worsened, making it painful to touch. I struggled to open my mouth fully and even chewing became difficult.

On the seventh day after symptom onset, I discovered Dr. Wen’s clinic and read testimonials from other patients who had recovered from facial nerve paralysis through treatment. Encouraged by their experiences, I decided to seek help immediately.

The improvement came sooner than I expected. After only three treatment sessions, I was able to open my mouth more comfortably and eat normally again. The facial swelling subsided, and after ten treatments I could smile once more.

By the completion of the second course of treatment, I had regained the ability to raise my eyebrow, frown, rinse my mouth, and smile naturally. Many of my friends could no longer tell that I had ever experienced facial nerve paralysis.

Throughout the treatment process, Dr. Wen continuously encouraged me and helped restore my confidence during moments when I feared that I might never recover completely. Seeing my progress gave me hope that full recovery was possible.

This experience taught me the true value of health. Long working hours, stress, irregular meals, lack of sleep, and exhaustion can all place tremendous strain on the body. Moving forward, I will take better care of myself and cherish my health more than ever before.

Most importantly, I hope to make a full recovery and become a happy bride with confidence and peace of mind.

Concerned by these sudden symptoms, I immediately visited a neurologist and was diagnosed with facial nerve paralysis. I was informed that the exact cause of the condition was often unclear and that treatment options were limited. Steroid medication was prescribed to help manage the symptoms, and I was told that recovery could take many months and that the extent of recovery would vary from person to person.

Naturally, I hoped for a complete recovery as quickly as possible. During my consultation, I was advised that acupuncture might help accelerate the healing process. While searching for treatment options, I learned about Dr. Wen and decided to seek his help.

During my first visit, Dr. Wen confidently explained that with intensive treatment, significant improvement could be expected within a relatively short period of time. Although I initially found this difficult to believe after hearing very different expectations elsewhere, I decided to commit fully to the treatment plan.

Receiving treatment regularly, I gradually experienced improvements that exceeded my expectations. Day by day, my facial movement improved, and my confidence grew stronger as I saw the progress for myself.

After fourteen treatment sessions, approximately 90% of my facial function had returned. I could open and close my eyes normally again, and the asymmetry of my mouth had largely resolved.

This experience completely changed my understanding of acupuncture and its potential role in recovery. More importantly, the encouragement and support I received throughout the process gave me hope during a very difficult period.

I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Wen and the entire medical team for their care, professionalism, and encouragement throughout my recovery journey.

Through the recommendation of a friend, I decided to visit Dr. Wen’s clinic and began acupuncture treatment on March 26.

Following several treatment sessions, I gradually noticed meaningful improvements in my symptoms. After eight acupuncture treatments, the sharp pain, soreness, and numbness in my mouth and teeth had decreased significantly.

At the time of writing this testimonial, I had completed more than ten treatment sessions, and the numbness and pain had improved considerably. The progress gave me renewed confidence and hope for a full recovery.

Throughout the treatment process, Dr. Wen continuously encouraged me and provided reassurance, which greatly strengthened my confidence in both the treatment and my recovery journey.

I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Wen for his expertise, attentiveness, and compassionate care during my treatment.

The symptoms gradually became part of my everyday life. Whether attending meetings, teaching, or working, I constantly relied on eye drops for relief. My eyes frequently felt dry, irritated, and uncomfortable. Sometimes my eyelashes would become trapped in my eyes, causing redness and discomfort. Sticky discharge around my eyes became common, and I carried multiple types of artificial tears with me everywhere I went.

Over the years, I tried numerous treatments and eye health supplements, including various brands of lutein and nutritional products, yet I experienced very little improvement.

Three years ago, an eye injury further complicated my condition and led to recurrent corneal erosion syndrome. Every morning, I often woke up with severe eye pain, foreign body sensation, and sensitivity to light. At times, the pain was so intense that I could barely open my eyes. I believed that lifelong dependence on eye ointments and artificial tears would be unavoidable.

Fortunately, I eventually found Dr. Wen and decided to pursue acupuncture treatment.

To my surprise, improvement appeared rapidly. After just one treatment session, I immediately noticed increased moisture in my eyes and a significant reduction in dryness and discomfort. The symptoms improved by approximately 60% following the initial treatment.

As treatment continued, my recovery progressed steadily. At present, I feel that my dry eye symptoms have improved by approximately 95%. The remaining symptoms are limited to mild dryness upon waking or slight discomfort during poor air quality conditions or prolonged exposure to air-conditioned environments.

Even more remarkably, after approximately ten treatment sessions, the severe morning eye pain caused by recurrent corneal erosion syndrome completely disappeared. The foreign body sensation and light sensitivity improved dramatically, allowing me to return to normal daily activities without constant discomfort.

Looking back, I only wish that I had discovered this treatment earlier. The improvement in my quality of life has been truly remarkable.

I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Wen for his expertise, attentive care, and support throughout my recovery journey.

This year, the condition worsened significantly, and my left eyelid eventually drooped to the point where it partially covered my pupil and affected my appearance as well as my confidence. I consulted several ophthalmologists, but I was repeatedly told that the problem was simply related to aging and that there were no effective treatment options available.

Hearing this was extremely discouraging. I often wondered whether I would have to live with uneven eyes for the rest of my life.

Unwilling to give up, I continued searching for possible treatment options and eventually learned about Dr. Wen and his acupuncture treatments. With little expectation but a great deal of hope, I decided to visit his clinic and pursue treatment.

To my surprise, improvement came much sooner than I had expected. After only three treatment sessions, I noticed that my eyelid had begun to lift more naturally. The change was remarkable and gave me renewed confidence that recovery might be possible.

As treatment continued, the improvement became even more obvious. My left eyelid was not only able to open more fully, but it also remained elevated without drooping throughout the day.

Today, I can go out confidently and interact with others without feeling self-conscious about my appearance. The improvement has had a tremendous positive impact on both my daily life and emotional well-being.

I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Wen for his expertise, encouragement, and attentive care throughout my treatment journey. His help allowed me to regain not only my appearance but also my confidence and quality of life.
