To my best knowledge, there is no cure. Sometimes loss of smell will come back with time, but this depends on the cause of the loss (viral or injury). Some people are born with no sense of smell. Treatments which seem to work the best involve smell training using essential oils.

There is no known cure. However, learning to live with its limitations can be accomplished.

There is no medical treatment --so the best thing is to have a good support network (friends and family).

There may be no treatment at all depending on what type of anosmia you have and how you acquired it and also how long you’ve had it. But new research is changing that with exciting work being done with stem cell therapy and gene therapy! Smell Training works for some people and should be started immediately. Steroids may also work for some. Don’t stop asking for help and do your own research to connect with experts in this field.

From my reading, it seems that steroids have been the most helpful for aquired anosmia, but the nasal steroid spray didn't work for me.

This condition has no cure, and not rollback if the person has not been born that way. The treatment recommended by ent doctors is to sniff the essence of roses 1 time a day, every day, and once a year go with the ent.
However, the chances of smell back are almost zero.
