Botox® is a safe and effective treatment option for chronic migraines. Our pain specialists are experienced in administering Botox® injections for migraines and can help you find the relief you need.
Pacific Pain & Wellness Group offers BOTOX® as a treatment option for chronic migraines. If you suffer from migraines that last 4+ hours and occur 15 or more days per month, BOTOX® may be a viable treatment option for you.
Botox for chronic migraine
Botox may be considered for selected patients with chronic migraine after a clinical evaluation. Chronic migraine is commonly associated with frequent headache days, recurring migraine symptoms, and functional disruption that persists despite prior treatment efforts.
Pacific Pain & Wellness Group evaluates migraine history, headache frequency, symptom pattern, prior medication response, triggers, neurological history, and safety considerations before recommending a treatment plan. Some patients may need additional evaluation or referral depending on symptoms and risk factors.
How Botox migraine treatment is reviewed
When Botox is appropriate, treatment involves targeted injections at specific head and neck sites using an established migraine protocol. Treatment is preventive, meaning the goal is to reduce migraine burden over time rather than treat a single active headache episode.
The care team discusses expected timing, follow-up, possible side effects, and how Botox fits with other migraine care. Treatment plans may also include medication review, trigger management, lifestyle factors, or coordination with other clinicians.
What patients should expect
Patients should be prepared to discuss headache frequency, migraine features, rescue medication use, prior preventive medications, neck pain, neurological symptoms, and how migraines affect daily function. Tracking headache days before and after treatment can help determine whether the plan is working.
Botox is not appropriate for every headache pattern. Sudden severe headaches, new neurological symptoms, or major changes in headache pattern should be evaluated urgently or by the appropriate specialist.
