Methods:
This study was retrospective study including 174 patients that undergoing traumatic facial paralysis. All the patients received laser acupuncture (LA).
Patients were assigned to the LA 1 month group, LA 3 month group and LA 6 month group, with 58 patients in each group.

结局指标
主要结局
House Brackmann Grading System (HB)
时间窗: Baseline, month 3, 6 and 12
The HB is a physician-rated system based on criteria of resting appearance, facial movements, and synkinesis that categorizes facial function from I (normal) to VI (total paralysis), with options of "Normal", "Mild dysfunction", "Moderate dysfunction", "Moderately severe dysfunction",", "Severe dysfunction" or "Total paralysis". The prognoses of grade 3 or higher were abnormal.
