The Treatment
Botox is an approved treatment modality for certain types of chronic headaches or migraines. Chronic migraines can be defined as experiencing headaches on 15 or more days per month, with each headache lasting at least 4 hours.
Botox is injected into strategic muscles in your forehead, temples, the neck, and the back of your head. It can block the release of certain chemicals involved in neuromuscular transmission within muscles, thereby reducing the frequency and severity of your migraines. Botox treatment can be an effective therapy for chronic headaches or migraines where other therapies have not produced the desired results. Botox treatment is usually repeated every 12 weeks.
