Trigeminal Radiofrequency Procedures
01The treatment
What Is It?
For selected patients with refractory trigeminal or facial pain, radiofrequency techniques may be considered to alter pain transmission through a targeted trigeminal nerve structure or branch.
02How it works
How Can It Help?
The specific technique, target, and type of radiofrequency treatment depend on the diagnosis and anatomy. Because the trigeminal system also carries normal facial sensation, careful selection and detailed discussion of potential sensory effects are essential.

What Can Patients Expect?
