This is used to treat persistent pain from muscle spasm or for prevention and treatment of migraine and will often provide several months of relief but may need to be repeated, usually three monthly.

After your treatment

The Botox takes several days to start working and occasionally up to 2 weeks.  The effects are maximal at six weeks and usually last 3-4 months, after which they can be repeated if necessary.

As far as activity is concerned, you should carry on with your usual level of activity in the first few weeks after the treatment, and you will be reviewed in the clinic in four to six weeks.
