Botox Treatments

Did you know that the practical use for Botox (botulinum toxin) to treat conditions caused by an overactive nervous system was first suggested in the early 1800’s? It wasn’t until over 180 later it started being used medically, and another decade for cosmetic use. The patients who received Botox injections around their face for cosmetic purposes started reporting relief from chronic headaches, and that is what spawned multiple uses for Botox, and comparable products, in the treatment of other conditions.
