Cure for Migraines Also Cures Wrinkles

The common injection used by every Beverly Hills facial plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery center for battling those frown lines, crows’ feet, and other facial lines and wrinkles is also, it turns out, a good way to battle migraine headaches. Botox for migraines is an increasingly popular procedure pioneered and patented by Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. William J. Binder.

As reported in Time magazine, “As many as 9 million of the estimated 28 million Americans who suffer from migraines find no protection or relief from pain killers or preventive medications… Half the 28 million Americans who get migraines never see a doctor about them.†The effects of migraine headaches can be reduced by several over-the-counter drugs. There are also whole classes of medications which are aimed at preventing migraine headaches from the start. These include beta and calcium – channel blockers that improve the flow of blood to the brain, anti-depressants that regulate levels of the brain chemical serotonin and various anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-seizure medicines (epilepsy and migraines, for reasons no one yet understands, seem to have common origins). Unfortunately, millions of migraine sufferers simply do not respond to such aforementioned treatments. For these patients, many are flocking to sunny California, where the favorite experts in Beverly Hills Botox – Botulinum Toxin A – reside. In Beverly Hills Botulinum Toxin (Botox) is a purified biological protein that is produced, under rigorous laboratory conditions, by the growth of Clostidium Botulinum bacterium. Botox, when injected, weakens and affects only the muscles that are treated. The safety profile of Botox is unparalleled in that there are no major or permanent side effects reported for cosmetic use in over 30 years and after millions of injections. The discovery of the Botox migraine treatment was a lucky accident. Plastic surgeons using diluted botulinum toxin to remove wrinkles started hearing about a secondary effect. “Patientsâ€, remembers Dr. William Binder, “came back saying ‘not only have my wrinkles disappeared, but my headaches are also gone.’†As word spread in the medical community, more doctors began offering Botox to their migraine patients.

Botox and/or trigger point injections for pain? Has anyone any experiences to share, please?

I have chronic spondylosis that affects the right side of my neck and shoulders. It is driving me round the bend. The pain consultant has suggested that I try trigger point injections, and when I search for information I also find that some sites recommend botox injections as well. I’d be very interested to hear from anyone who has had these – the pain is close to intolerable.

Trigger point injections would be your best bet for pain. Botox is more useful if you have muscle spasticity such as with torsion dystonia. I’ve also had injections myself for bursitus and it definitely helps.
