How it Works

Neuromodulators are commonly known for reducing facial wrinkles, but they also have therapeutic uses in muscular disorders and for headaches and migraines. When injected into the muscles associated with headaches, neuromodulators block the release of neurotransmitters that cause muscle overactivity. This relaxation helps relieve tension and pressure that contribute to headache pain. Neuromodulators also interfere with the nerve signals responsible for pain perception, providing further relief.

    Headache & Migraine Treatment FAQ

    What is a neuromodulator treatment for headaches and migraines?

    Neuromodulator treatments for this purpose involves injecting a neurotoxin into specific areas of the head and neck to prevent or reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines and tension headaches.

    Neuromodulators temporarily block nerve signals in muscles, preventing excessive contraction. This relaxation can reduce the occurrence of migraines by inhibiting the release of certain chemicals that trigger pain pathways.

    This treatment is typically recommended for individuals who experience chronic heachaches and migraines and haven’t responded well to other treatments.

    Our medical doctor administers tiny, shallow neuromodulator injections into specific muscle points on the forehead, temples, and neck.

    Yes, the effects are temporary, so if you decide to discontinue treatment, the muscles will gradually regain their function, though headache frequency may return to previous levels.
