Chronic migraines can be debilitating, affecting work, sleep, and overall quality of life. Botulinum toxin works by blocking pain-signalling pathways and relaxing muscles involved in headache tension.

Benefits may include:
Reduction in frequency and severity of migraines
Relief from head, neck, and shoulder tension
Fewer migraine days per month
Improved quality of life and daily functioning

Treatment typically involves a series of small injections to specific areas of the head, temples, neck, and shoulders. Results develop gradually over 1–2 weeks and usually last around 3 months.

Botulinum toxin for migraine is commonly used in patients who experience frequent or chronic migraines and have not responded well to other treatments.
