Diverse Use of Botox injections

Botox injections have also been known to alleviate migraines, overactive bladders and tennis elbow. The injections are also undergoing studies for relief from cerebral palsy to arthritis and stroke.

If you are suffering from any of these medical conditions, Dr. Babak Azizzadeh can help.
Officially approved to treat frown lines and laugh lines, Botox injections are now used to treat a variety of conditions.

Physicians effectively use the treatment to:
  • Smooth out horizontal lines in the forehead
  • Lift and shape the eyebrows
  • Shape the jaw and sides of the fact
  • Balance asymmetrical features
  • Treat medical conditions that cause spasms in the face and eyelids

Preliminary studies now hint that patients who don’t experience relief from back pain using traditional medicine may find pain relief from Botox injections.

These small-scale studies conclude that patients who underwent Botox injections to treat lower back pain reported significant pain relief after three months. Many studies must still be conducted to determine the safety of using Botox repeatedly to treat the spinal muscles.

Another condition being studied is migraines. Preliminary studies also suggest that Botox injections can offer relief from chronic headaches, tension headaches and migraines. These injections have shown to cause a decrease in the occurrences and severity of headaches for about three to four months after injection.

If you are considering cosmetic facial surgery and you live in the Beverly Hills area of California, please contact Dr. Babak Azizzadeh today.
