A common question that our patients have has to do with cosmetic side effects. As you can
see in the videos of our former patients, there are most commonly no cosmetic effects.
In general, the friends and families of our patients cannot even tell that they've had
a unit implanted. They also seem quite pleased with the results.
Naturally, patients worry about being limited in some ways by having a stimulator implanted
in their body. However, physical limitations are essentially non-existent in our patients.
It's actually quite the opposite. Having the unit in and their headaches gone
allows for them to be liberated in that they can now do things they couldn't do before.
They can go outside, enjoy physical activity. They can eat the trigger foods that they couldn't
before. In fact, they could do most anything at all from a physical standpoint.
The bottom line is our patients can resume their full physical activities. They can run,
swim, exercise and enjoy their sports that they've done previously.
