• PRF performed on the sphenopalatine ganglion level under ultrasound guidance.
• Standard voltage PRF parameters: 45 V, 5 Hz frequency, 5 ms pulse width, 360 seconds duration, electrode temperature ≤42°C.
• Supravoltage PRF parameters: Higher voltage than standard (e.g., 60-70 V), with same frequency, pulse width, and duration, maintaining temperature ≤42°C to avoid nerve damage.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Failure of ≥2 classes of preventive pharmacological migraine medications (e.g., beta-blockers, antiepileptics, antidepressants...) to get clinically meaningful response ( defined as ≥50% reduction in monthly migraine days), at standard therapeutic doses (Beta-blockers (e.g., propranolol ≥160 mg/day, metoprolol ≥100 mg/day, Antiepileptics (e.g., topiramate ≥100 mg/day, valproate ≥500 mg/day, Tricyclic antidepressants (e.g., amitriptyline ≥50 mg/day, SNRIs (e.g., venlafaxine ≥150 mg/day ) for at least 8 weeks or ≥12 weeks in case of CGRP ).
  • Stable preventive migraine therapy for at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • MIDAS score ≥11 indicating moderate to severe disability.
  • Ability and willingness to maintain a daily headache diary throughout the study period.
