Therapeutic Botox
Therapeutic Botox refers to the use of botulinum toxin injections (commonly known as Botox) for medical or therapeutic purposes beyond its well-known cosmetic applications. While Botox is widely recognized for its ability to temporarily reduce wrinkles by paralyzing facial muscles, it also has various therapeutic uses in treating medical conditions involving muscle dysfunction, nerve disorders, and certain types of pain.
Migraine Botox
Botox is injected into specific areas of the head and neck. It works by blocking the release of certain neurotransmitters involved in pain signaling and is often very effective in reducing the frequency and severity of migraines. It is typically recommended for individuals who experience migraines on 15 or more days per month. The treatment is administered approximately every 12 weeks, and it may take a few sessions before the full effects are realized.
