Bristol Palin turns to extreme treatment in bid to 'smile again' after losing muscle movement in face


Bristol Palin shared that she is ready to try a drastic treatment amid her battle with facial paralysis, as she gave fans another health update on Monday.

Bristol in January said on the social media platform that doctors speculated she might have Bell's palsy - which is temporary paralysis or weakness of the facial muscles - after undergoing a series of tests following symptoms. A number of notable names have past received diagnoses of Bell's palsy, including George Clooney, Angelina Jolie, The Bachelorette alum Emily Maynard Johnson and iconic pro wrestling announcer Jim Ross. She appeared at the Republican National Convention in September 2008 alongside Johnston, as her pregnancy with Tripp when she was 17 made headlines, amid her mother's swift rise to political prominence as McCain's running mate.
