Did you know, Botox is not just for looks!
Botox may help with PTSD symptoms, including anxiety, hypervigilance, and intrusive thoughts. Botox may also improve sleep quality and overall quality of life.
Botox injections can help prevent and treat chronic migraines. Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin A, which is also used for cosmetic purposes and to treat other conditions.
Botulinum toxin (BTX) injections into the forehead can improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. This treatment is based on the idea that facial expressions can influence emotions.
How it works!
Injections into the “frown muscles” of the forehead may improve emotional well-being. BTX injections may interrupt a feedback loop from the face to the emotional brain. BTX injections may improve facial expression and self-confidence. Botox can be used to supplement a stellate ganglion blockade, which can help with PTSD symptoms. Stellate ganglion blocks are believed to work by turning off the cervical sympathetic chain, which controls the fight-or-flight response. Botox relaxes muscles and connects with nerves to reduce pain.
