Migraine Therapy
Botox®, commonly known for its cosmetic uses, is also an FDA-approved treatment for chronic migraines. When injected in small doses into specific areas of the head and neck, Botox® works by blocking the release of certain chemicals involved in pain transmission. This helps reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. It’s believed to prevent the activation of pain pathways in the brain, providing relief for those who experience migraines 15 or more days a month. Botox® treatments typically last 3-4 months.
