Migraines and tension headaches are common and can affect daily life. We are seeing increasing numbers of patients who are suffering from headaches and are finding oral painkillers ineffective.

The team at MedAesthetics treat migraines by relaxing certain muscles in the face, head and neck region. This may help reduce the frequency or severity of some headaches. Benefits vary from person to person, and some people may not notice a meaningful change.

Treatment Discomfort:

Mild; varies between patients

Longevity:

Temporary; several months, varies

Location:

Available at all MedAesthetics clinics.

Migraine & Headache
Treatment Information

Treatment Areas

  • Muscles of the forehead and temples
  • Muscles at the back of the head and upper neck
  • Considered by some people who experience recurrent tension-type headaches or migraine

Common Names

  • Migraine treatment
  • Headache treatment
  • Tension headache treatment
  • Chronic headache management

MOA

Recurrent headaches and migraine are common, and there are several medical approaches to managing them. At a consultation, a doctor takes a careful history and examines you to understand your headaches and whether an injectable option may be appropriate for you. Where it is, the treatment involves small injections that temporarily relax certain muscles in the head and neck region, which may help reduce the frequency or severity of some headaches for some people — it is not a cure and does not work for everyone. If a treatment is considered appropriate, the doctor explains in general terms how it works, along with its benefits, limitations and risks.

Migraine Treatment Summary

A medical assessment with a doctor comes first to determine whether the treatment may be suitable. Some people choose repeat sessions as part of an ongoing plan, discussed at your consultation.

The procedure itself is usually brief; the exact time is confirmed at your consultation.

Discomfort is usually described as mild and varies between patients. Comfort measures such as topical numbing cream may be used and are discussed with you beforehand.

There is generally little downtime, though mild, temporary effects such as bruising or swelling can occur.

Where the treatment helps, a change is usually noticeable within one to two weeks. It is not a cure, results vary between individuals, and some people may not notice a meaningful change.

The effect is temporary and generally lasts a number of months before wearing off, with the duration varying between individuals and depending on the muscles treated.

Most people resume usual activities soon afterwards, with strenuous exercise typically avoided for the first 24–48 hours.

Your practitioner explains what to expect during recovery and provides aftercare guidance tailored to you.

Headache Treatment General Information

This is a medical decision about managing headaches, not a cosmetic one, so it should begin with a doctor rather than a booking form. Look for a provider where a doctor takes a proper history of your headaches, examines you, and is upfront that an injectable option is only one of several ways to manage headaches — it is not a cure and not right for everyone. A good provider discusses other approaches, including those led by your GP or a headache specialist, and refers you on where that is more appropriate. Because it involves a prescription-only medicine, an authorised prescriber must be part of the assessment, and you shouldn’t feel rushed into it.

Because headaches have many possible causes and this is a genuine medical assessment, a doctor is central to how the treatment is approached here. Dr Ehsan Jadoon (MED0001586460), Registered Medical Practitioner (general registration), oversees a qualified clinical team. Your consultation involves a history and examination to judge whether an injectable option may help, an honest account of its limitations — it may reduce how often or how severely some headaches occur for some people, but it is not a cure — and a discussion of other management options and referral where useful. There is no pressure to proceed. You’re welcome to book a consultation.

Risks and possible side effects include allergic reaction (very rare) and temporary bruising or swelling. Your doctor will discuss these with you and explain what to expect during recovery, which usually involves little downtime, with strenuous exercise typically avoided for the first 24–48 hours. Individual results vary, and all cosmetic procedures carry risks and possible side effects — these are discussed with you at your consultation.
