OBJECTIVE: To evaluate how patient-reported outcomes vary by etiology of facial paralysis and to identify functional, esthetic, and psychosocial determinants of patient lived experience.
STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.
SETTING: Single-center, tertiary academic facial nerve clinic.
METHODS: Adults with inflammatory, schwannoma, parotid neoplasm, or congenital facial paralysis completed FACE-Q modules, the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire-Short Form (TEIQue-SF), and a social support rating. Facial paralysis severity was graded with Sunnybrook scores. Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's post hoc testing along with multivariable linear regression assessed associations between etiology and outcomes, adjusting for severity, duration, prior surgical procedures, emotional intelligence, and social support.
RESULTS: Etiology independently shaped patient experience in multiple domains. Compared with inflammatory paralysis, parotid neoplasm was associated with worse lip appearance (β = -12.07, SE = 5.05, P = .036), speech function (β = -16.16, SE = 6.40, P = .010), and speech-related distress (β = -5.51, SE = 2.11, P = .009). Congenital paralysis was linked to lower appearance distress (β = 12.81, SE = 5.30, P = .017) and higher social functioning (β = 17.48, SE = 7.13, P = .028). Schwannoma resection had improved facial appearance (β = 7.96, SE = 3.03, P = .020) and psychological function (β = 6.83, SE = 2.89, P = .037). Across etiologies, higher baseline emotional intelligence improved appearance, psychosocial, and functional perceptions, while stronger social support mitigated speech-related distress and outcomes.
CONCLUSION: Patient-reported outcomes and lived experience in facial paralysis differ meaningfully by etiology. Beyond clinical severity, a patient's emotional intelligence, social context, and underlying cause of paralysis shape personal perceptions of appearance, function, and well-being. These findings highlight the importance of etiology-specific counseling, rehabilitation, and psychosocial support to optimize recovery and quality of life.
