Overview
Migraine surgery is a form of treatment for chronic migraine headaches that aims to reduce the severity and frequency of headache episodes. It involves the surgical removal of a small portion of the temporalis muscle, a major muscle of the temporal area that is believed to be associated with migraine headaches. The procedure can provide significant relief from migraine pain, and is particularly beneficial to those who have not responded well to medications or other non-surgical treatments. It is important to note that migraine surgery is not a cure, only a treatment. While the results may vary, it has been seen to reduce headache episodes, duration, and severity in many cases.
