Botox
Botox, short for botulinum toxin, is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
We offer $15 of botox per unit.
It works by blocking the release of certain chemicals involved in muscle contraction, thus temporarily paralyzing or weakening muscles.
When injected into specific muscles around the head and neck, Botox can help prevent migraine headaches by reducing muscle tension and inhibiting the transmission of pain signals.
Botox treatment for migraines typically involves multiple injections administered every few months and has been found to be effective in reducing both the frequency and severity of migraines in some patients.
