The clinical need

Facial dysfunction reaches far beyond appearance.

Loss of facial motor control can affect expression, speech, eating, drinking, oral seal, and confidence. ISO Metrik is designed to give providers a structured rehabilitation pathway for patients whose recovery needs extend beyond observation and time.

The Rehabilitation Gap

Current Treatment Approaches

  • Facial Exercises & Mirror Therapy
  • Speech and Language Therapy
  • Electrical Stimulation (NMES)
  • Neuromuscular Re-Education
  • Biofeedback

Critical Gaps in Standard Care

  • No measurable resistance loadingexercises lack quantified force application.
  • No structured progressionno objective load advancement over time.
  • No continuitytreatment ends at the clinic door.
  • No compliance monitoringhome exercise adherence is unverifiable.

These gaps leave patients without the progressive, data-driven rehabilitation they need to achieve functional recovery.

Patient experiencing facial neuromuscular dysfunction
Human impactFunction shapes daily life.

Function. Identity. Connection.

Recovery is personal because facial function is personal.

The smallest movements influence how patients communicate, nourish themselves, and connect with other people.

Smiling &
Expression

Facial paralysis erases the unconscious cues that define identity and social connection.

Speech &
Communication

Orbicularis and buccinator weakness impairs articulation, intelligibility, and confidence.

Drinking &
Lip Closure

Incomplete lip seal creates spillage, aspiration risk, and loss of nutritional independence.

Quality of Life

Functional deficits compel social withdrawal, depression, and reduced rehabilitation adherence.

Patent-protected platformPurpose-engineered for targeted resistance.
ISO Metrik device architecture

The ISO Metrik device

Designed to make facial resistance progressive, repeatable, and provider-directed.

Its modular architecture allows clinicians to select resistance, target perioral muscle groups, and advance loading parameters as strength and function improve.

01

Bite plate

Provides stable intraoral anchoring and distributes occlusal forces.

02

Glide bar

Supports controlled lateral and horizontal movement against resistance.

03

Lip holders

Engage the perioral region and surrounding musculature.

04

Resistance bands

Provide interchangeable levels for structured progression.

Wellness & GLP-1 referral market

A growing weight-loss market is creating a new conversation about facial recovery.

Patients using GLP-1 medications—including Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, and Zepbound®—may seek support for facial hollowing, reduced soft-tissue volume, and a perceived loss of tone following rapid weight loss.

Often called “Ozempic face,” these visible changes can reflect the loss of facial fat and soft-tissue volume as body weight declines. ISO Metrik does not replace lost facial volume. It gives qualified providers a structured pathway for facial muscle conditioning, motor control, and measurable neuromuscular rehabilitation.

Three foundations of rehabilitation science

One platform. Three distinct modes of resistance.

ISO Metrik brings familiar physical-therapy principles to targeted facial and oral-motor rehabilitation.

The science behind ISO Metrik

Proven Science. Purposeful Innovation.

ISO Metrik was created to restore what matters most — strength, function, and confidence.
Our technology is built on science, validated by research, and trusted by professionals.

ISO Metrik research laboratory with facial anatomy models and rehabilitation technology

Proven Innovation

Founded by Capri McGhee following his personal journey overcoming facial muscle paralysis, ISO Metrik represents over a decade of dedicated research and development.

Protected by 22 patents covering both device design and treatment methodology, this technology addresses facial osteoporosis and muscle atrophy—fundamental challenges in conditions such as facial paralysis, Bell's palsy, stroke recovery, neuromuscular disorders, TMJ dysfunction, GLP-1 muscle loss, dysphagia, oral motor disorders, speech rehabilitation, orthopedic injuries, and personal injury rehabilitation.

The ISO Metrik Device is equally valuable for both physical therapy (PT) and speech-language pathology (SLP) professionals treating these facial muscle and functional conditions.
