Hyperhidrosis
This condition is defined as sweating that disrupts normal activities. It can be focal and is commonly active in armpits, hands, feet, and groins where sweat glands are concentrated. Hyperhidrosis can cause embarrassment and anxiety and be refractory to over-the-counter treatments. Botox injections block the nerves that trigger the sweat glands. Patients with Hyperhidrosis may need several injections for effective results.
Cervical Dystonia
This condition often results in disabling neck pain and can occur (aka torticollis, laterocollis, anterocollis, retrocollis) and can be treated effectively with Botox. Additionally, botox can be used to aesthetically lengthen the neck in patients who have a short neck due to trapezius hypertrophy.
Neck bands
Prominent muscle (platysma) bands in the neck can be injected with a neurotoxin to relax the muscle and make the neck appear more smooth during animation. The platysmal bands are often cut during neck lifts and this is a non-surgical way of softening neck bands.
TMJ
Temporo-mandibular joint is used when talking, eating, swallowing, and other activities. When this joint becomes overworked through excessive teeth grinding or overworked, a person may suffer from severe tension headaches and sharp pain in the jaw. Combined with our chiropractic alignment, neurotoxin injection into facial muscles afflicted with soreness and discomfort relieves TMJ and jaw tension.
