Botox for migraines is a medical treatment that may help reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines over time. If you’ve tried other options and still struggle with ongoing symptoms, Botox may be worth exploring.
What Is A Migraine?
A migraine is a neurological condition that can cause recurring headaches along with symptoms like:
- sensitivity to light or sound
- nausea or vomiting
- throbbing or pulsing pain
- visual changes (migraine aura)
- dizziness or brain fog
Migraines can feel different from person to person, and they can range from mild to severe.
Botox® For Migraine Relief, How It Works
Botox for migraines is not the same as cosmetic Botox. When used for migraines, Botox is injected into specific areas to help reduce the nerve signals involved in chronic migraine pain.
Botox works by relaxing targeted muscles and blocking certain pain pathways, which can help reduce how often migraines occur. Many patients choose Botox for migraine headaches because it is non-surgical, quick and it offers a long-term management option for chronic migraines

Botox is most commonly recommended for chronic migraines, meaning migraines that happen frequently and have become a consistent pattern.
