Neurotoxin Injections for Migraine

 FDA-approved, targeted treatment that prevents chronic migraine attacks and helps patients reclaim their daily life.

What Are Neurotoxin Injections for Migraine?

Neurotoxin (botulinum toxin type A) is a proven medical therapy for people suffering from chronic migraine — defined as headaches occurring 15 or more days per month.
When injected into specific areas around the head and neck, Neurotoxin works by blocking pain-carrying nerve signals and relaxing overactive muscles involved in migraine attacks.
 It’s a quick, outpatient procedure performed using fine needles, with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

Neurotoxin injections are typically recommended for:

(Headache on 15+ days per month, lasting 4+ hours a day)
