Botox is FDA-approved for preventing chronic migraines, offering significant relief to many sufferers. Here’s how it works:
- Blocking Pain Signals: Botox injected around the head and neck blocks the release of neurotransmitters that carry pain signals to the brain. This reduces the intensity and frequency of migraine attacks.
- Calming Overactive Nerves: Research suggests Botox might desensitize overactive nerves associated with migraines, providing long-lasting preventive effects.
- Targeted Treatment: Involves injections into specific points, minimizing systemic side effects compared to some oral migraine medications.
Botox for migraines is a specialized treatment. If you’re struggling with migraines, AIVI Aesthetics in Agoura Hills will assess if it’s the right solution for you.
