Tension headaches, cluster headaches, and chronic migraines can put a stop to your day. At Kind Smiles Dental Health of Lakewood Ranch, Florida, we understand how this can affect one’s overall quality of life and make it difficult to function. Fortunately, there is a solution that our team can assist with.
Botox and Dysport, two popular neuromodulators on the market today, are not just for cosmetic enhancement of the face. These two products can also be used to address chronic headaches and migraines in patients.
Neurotoxin injections, including popular brands such as Botox and Dysport, work by blocking the release of certain chemicals that cause muscle contractions. The treatment involves a set of small injections strategically placed by Dr. Allison Konick and her team into specific areas of the head and neck at Kind Smiles Dental Health. Doing so reduces tension and lessens migraines and headaches for several months for our patients.
Many of our patients at Kind Smiles Dental Health of Lakewood Ranch, Florida, find that injections of Botox and Dysport for chronic headaches and migraines may provide relief for up to four months. Each patient’s response to these neuromodulators may vary, but typically, the effects can last anywhere from three to six months for the average adult man or woman. After this time has passed, patients are welcome to visit Dr. Allison Konick at Kind Smiles Dental Health again for another injection session.
If you regularly suffer from problematic headaches and migraines and are looking for a solution that doesn’t require you to take prescription pain medications constantly, it might be time to talk to our team about the various advantages of undergoing injections.
