I'm at the two year mark now, but only 11 months from my Nerve Graft. When they did my reconstruction they knocked out my facial nerve, so before they do any cosmetic they wanted to try and restore function. I've got a few more months before they determine whether the graft will restore function to see what other reconstruction/cosmetic (facial sling etc..) surgery that needs to be done.
