Botox®

Botox® injections are appropriate for the underarms and hands for moderate to severe hyperhidrosis sufferers. Injection with Botox® interrupts the signal from the nerve to the sweat gland to reduce sweating in the area that is affected. The injection is done with a very fine needle and a topical anaesthetic is usually required. On average, results last anywhere from 6 – 12 months. Treatment for hyperhidrosis is not covered by OHIP, but may be covered by your private insurance.


“Before the treatment my hands would sweat a lot and it would bother me with my school work, my pencil dripping and my notes would be wet. After the treatment, it was….STUPENDOUS!!” – A.M. (age 19)

Migraines

Migraine (severe headache) sufferers can now have some relief with the treatment of Botox®. Injected into the muscles of the brow, eyes, forehead, side of the head and back of the head near the neck, Botox® relaxes the overactive muscle by blocking nerve impulses that trigger contractions. Scientists believe Botox® injections work by blocking the protein that carries the message of pain to the brain. Results last for approximately 4 – 6 months. Treatment for migraines is not covered by OHIP, although your private insurance plan may cover it.
