Long Term Bells Palsy

Tags: long term
I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy almost 6 years ago after the birth (and 6 days later, the loss) of our son.  I still have residual effects and some synkenesis.  An MRI was never performed nor were any other diagnostics.  Can an MRI determine if the nerves were completely severed and must just accept my "new" face or if I still have hope of regaining some muscle control (via facial retraining, etc.)?
