BOTOX FOR MIGRAINES- NYC *

In 2003, the World Health Organization estimated that as many as 303 million people worldwide suffer from migraines. With the prevalence and frequency of these debilitating headaches, and the noted relief Botox® injections often provide, many migraine clinics and cosmetic surgeons now offer Botox® as a headache treatment. In 2010, Botox, famous for smoothing out wrinkles on the face was approved by the FDA to treat chronic migraine headaches in adults.

*results can vary based on individual conditions

Dr. Vafa injects Botox® into the forehead, neck, and shoulders where patients are experiencing pain and tension. It is thought to eliminate migraines by reducing muscle tension and thus creating less strain on the nervous system. Not only can decreasing stress on the nervous system prevent migraines from developing, headaches that do occur are often less severe because Botox® blocks pain receptors in nerve cells.*
