How do neuromodulators relieve jaw pain?
Neuromodulators are injectable treatments that effectively relieve TMJ pain and discomfort. These treatments use a purified protein to temporarily relax targeted jaw muscles, reducing pain, teeth clenching, and tension headaches, and providing significant relief.
Neuromodulators work by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. When injected into specific jaw areas, like the masseter muscles, they alleviate TMJ symptoms by relaxing the muscles responsible for pain and discomfort. The quick, minimally invasive procedure requires no downtime and offers minimal discomfort.
Patients choose neuromodulators to achieve relief from TMJ-related symptoms. These treatments not only reduce existing pain but also prevent further muscle tension. At VisagePros, our personalized approach ensures that your unique needs and goals are considered, helping you achieve safe and effective results.

Preparing for a smooth experience
Before your treatment
To ensure optimal results and minimize any potential risks, it’s important to prepare for your neuromodulator treatment. Avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin and ibuprofen for at least a week prior to your appointment, as these can increase the risk of bruising. Refrain from consuming alcohol for 24 hours before your treatment. Additionally, inform your specialist of any medications or supplements you are taking.
Recovering after your treatment
After your neuromodulator treatment, it’s crucial to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your specialist to achieve the best results. Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for at least 24 hours to prevent the neuromodulator from spreading to unintended areas. Refrain from strenuous activities and exercise for the first day, and keep your head elevated. You may notice some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which should subside within a few days.
Understanding risks and side effects
While neuromodulator treatments are generally safe and well-tolerated, it’s important to be aware of potential risks and side effects. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection sites. In rare cases, patients may experience headaches, flu-like symptoms, or drooping of the eyelid or eyebrow. Our specialists at VisagePros will discuss these risks with you in detail and take all necessary precautions to minimize them.
By preparing adequately and following aftercare instructions, you can ensure a smooth and successful experience at VisagePros.
