Abstract

The face is prominently or exclusively involved in several involuntary movement disorders, called "facial dyskinesias," in addition to the common buccolingual form of tardive dyskinesia. This review describes the appearance of the most frequently occurring facial dyskinesias: chorea, dystonia, tremor, and tics. Some new treatments are discussed.
