Can BOTOX® Prevent Migraines?

Using BOTOX® to Reduce Chronic Migraines

Let us guess, when you tell someone that you have a migraine, do they write it off as just another headache? A migraine is far more intense than typical headaches and can interfere with the quality of life when they become chronic. If you’ve tried treating your symptoms with medication and have found no relief, learn how our team can help provide you with some relief.

What Causes Chronic Migraines?

The constant pain that comes along with migraines alone makes it difficult to show up for work and other daily activities or responsibilities — it makes being your best self nearly impossible. Some people never learn the cause of their chronic migraines with certainty. But, some of the more common causes of chronic migraines include:

• Increased stress levels.
• Unhealthy sleep patterns.
• Fasting or skipping meals.
• Food sensitivities.
• Hormonal fluctuations.
• Medication side effects.

Sometimes simple things like excessive caffeine consumption or intense exercise can also bring on a migraine. Add sensitivity to light, smells, and other sensory input and you see why chronic migraines can leave you in a dark room, curled up in bed, missing out on life. But, BOTOX® treatments may just be your saving grace.

Benefits of Using BOTOX® to Treat Your Pain

Not only can BOTOX® treatments improve your appearance, but these treatments are also one of the best remedies for chronic migraines. Injections are readily available at both of our locations and can last for up to three months.

For some patients, BOTOX® can eliminate migraines for months at a time — for others, the treatments lessen the frequency of migraines or the intensity of the pain. Exact results are difficult to predict because there are so many potential causes for migraines. But, it doesn't hurt to give it a try since BOTOX® is a safe injection that takes little time to administer.
