HEADACHE TREATMENTS 

 
What is BOTOX® and how does BOTOX® treatment for headaches work? 
 
It is unclear exactly how BOTOX treatment for headaches works, but it is thought to reduce muscle tension and thus create less strain on the nervous system.. 
What happens during the treatment? 
 
Using a very fine needle, a small amount of BOTOX® is injected into the forehead, neck, scalp and shoulder areas where patients are experiencing pain and tension. 
Results usually last for 3-4 months but the amount of injections or the number of BOTOX sessions required for optimal results varies from patient to patient. 
What are the Possible Side Effects? 
Very fine needles are used to inject tiny amounts of the purified BOTOX protein thus side effects are mild and short lived. Common side effects are localised swelling at the injection site, bruising and headache.. 
How Much does it Cost? 
 
Treatments start at £350.
