When you think of Botox, you think of a cosmetic treatment used to achieve younger looking skin. Before being used for cosmetic purposes, Botox was actually developed to treat neurological disorders. The demand for Botox in Dubai has increased drastically. Doctors in Dubai say Botox is currently among one of the top 3 most popular non-invasive treatments.
In Dubai, Botox treatments are received by over 70% of women aged 40-65. There are many spas that offer Botox in Dubai for cosmetic and medical purposes. The benefits of Botox continue to grow past its known ability to decrease wrinkles. Now let’s talk about some of the benefits of Botox.
Chronic Migraines
Nothing is worse than a migraine you can’t seem to get rid of. Thankfully, Botox has been approved to treat chronic migraines. Dr. Zoran Lekic, a plastic surgeon at the City Centre Clinic in Dubai claims that Botox has a positive impact on pain management as it works to treat migraines. Back in July of 2010, the FDA approved the use of Botox to those 18 and older, who experience chronic migraines more than 15 days each month. At the Rashid Hospital in Dubai, Botox is currently being used to treat chronic migraines. Dr. Manio Maravic, a neurologist in Dubai, offers Botox to his patients who suffer from chronic migraines. Injections in the head, shoulders and neck are given every three months and an evaluation is done to see if the Botox treatment is working. There are various theories as to why Botox works but it is believed that it relaxes the muscles.
Excessive Sweating
Sweaty armpits? No thank you! Here at Highness Clinics in Dubai, Botox is used to help treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Hyperhidrosis is nothing to be ashamed of, it’s actually quite common.
