Botox is used in migraine treatment and is administered in a manner distinct from its cosmetic application. It is advisable that Botox for migraine treatment be administered by a qualified specialist. The proposed mechanism involves inhibition of neurotransmitters released from nerves implicated in the migraine pathway; these neurotransmitters are responsible for transmitting pain signals. Clinical studies suggest that Botox may reduce both the frequency and severity of migraine attacks in certain individuals. In some cases, it has been found to decrease the number of headaches by 30–50% and alleviate symptoms affecting quality of life.
