Botox is a wonder drug which has been utilized over the years to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The benefit of Botox in cosmetic procedure is that Botox is used as a prescription injection which can reduce frown lines between the brows in men and women between 18 to 65 years of age. A Botox brow lift is a temporary cosmetic procedure, and the treatment is nonsurgical and administered through an injection directly into the muscles between the eyebrows. This injection will block nerve impulses to reduce muscle contractions and smooth obvious frown lines.

- Immediate fresh and youthful appearance
Recently FDA has approved Botox for migraine treatment relieving many individuals from a type of headache that is characterized by debilitating pain, sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, and vomiting. During migraine attack a patient may also suffer from a throbbing type of pain. In order for a headache to be classified as a migraine, it has to occur 15 or more days out of the month and it has to last for four hours or more at a time.
Migraine Surgery is a revolutionary surgery that has been changing migraine victims’ lives. Through highly specialized techniques, plastic surgeons are using a combination of Botox and surgery to alleviate symptoms or relieve patients from this chronic condition.
Almost 15 % of the population in the Western countries is affected with this common condition called migraine, and migraine surgery treats this aliment along with Botox. Migraine Surgery identifies the trigger points of the migraine with Botox, cortisone, or numbing medicine. Depending upon the patient’s response, the plastic surgeon can then target these trigger points with incisions behind the eyelid and the hairline to remove muscles placing pressure on the nerves causing the migraine. The principle of the surgery is to first, precisely identify which nerves are being pinched in order to release the compression through small hidden incisions.
Migraine surgery does not guarantee an immediate cure, but it provides relief to patients and in case of majority of patients it greatly reduces the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks in everyday life. Migraines are terrible and sometimes responsible for ruining a person’s life by debilitating headaches, making the most mundane tasks impossible. But now with Botox there is radical change in the treatment scenario for migraine patients.
