How does a migraine treatment work?
First, the practitioner will determine the origin of the headache and mark the area. Headaches often occur at the front of your head, behind the eyebrows, or in the frown and forehead muscles. On average, 13 to 15 injections are administered in the zones where the headache occurs. If you also have wrinkles in these areas, you can opt for a treatment for frown lines or forehead wrinkles.
As a result of the treatment, you will experience headaches less frequently, and even the severity of headaches will be reduced. The muscle relaxants last for 3 to 4 months, after which the muscles become active again, requiring a repeat treatment. If you have frown lines and forehead wrinkles, they can also be treated with muscle relaxants.

Schedule a non-binding consultation to discuss your wishes and expectations with the practitioner. Based on this, the practitioner will give you appropriate advice. During the consultation, the practitioner will examine your face and take some photos so that you can compare the results after the treatment. This way, you can see if your wishes have been met.
The practitioner will administer an average of 13 to 15 injections in the zones. The effect becomes noticeable after a few days to weeks. Due to the treatment, you will experience headaches less frequently, and even the severity of headaches will be reduced. The treatment takes about 15 minutes.
You may not exercise for up to 24 hours after the treatment. Furthermore, you should avoid visiting the sauna or sunbed for 2 weeks after the treatment. Exposure to UV radiation can make the treated skin extra sensitive and affect the results of the treatment.

The result of the migraine treatment
The optimal result is noticeable after two weeks, as you no longer have tension headaches. The pressing headache from the forehead is gone, and you feel relief, indicating that the muscle relaxants for headaches have worked. This effect lasts on average 3 to 4 months, after which the muscles become active again.
Migraines often return once the muscle relaxants have worn off, which is why migraine treatment needs to be repeated. You can easily schedule a follow-up appointment using our booking tool. Additionally, if you’d like to achieve a beautiful glow on your face, a Profhilo treatment might be suitable for you!
Aftercare for migraine treatment
Within 48 hours after the migraine treatment, you should not massage or rub the injected area unless instructed otherwise by the practitioner. It is possible to experience bruising and swelling after the treatment. Bruising can be camouflaged with makeup a few hours after the treatment once the injection holes are closed.
Furthermore, you should not exercise within 48 hours after the treatment and avoid the sauna or sunbed for 2 weeks after the treatment. Exposure to UV radiation can make the skin extra sensitive and affect the results.

Frequently Asked Questions about migraine treatment
For an effective migraine treatment, we inject two zones: the frown and forehead muscles. On average, 13 to 15 injections are administered in both zones. The muscle-relaxing effect becomes noticeable after a few days to weeks.
A treatment with muscle relaxants helps alleviate headaches, especially with tension headaches. Moreover, this treatment is more effective than painkillers.
Muscle relaxants typically last for about 3 months. After this, the muscles become active again, requiring a repeat treatment.
Sometimes painkillers help with headaches. However, these medications can ultimately have adverse effects and trigger headaches. In such cases, muscle relaxants are the solution. This medication relaxes the muscles responsible for the headache.
There is no fixed price for this treatment as it depends on the size of the treatment area, the practitioner, and the brand of muscle relaxant. Check our price list for more information.
