Botox for Migraines & Headaches in Cornwall

Relief from chronic migraines at Dental World Cornwall

At Dental World Cornwall, we don’t just look after your smile — we also provide advanced medical treatments to support your overall wellbeing. Botox® is an NHS-approved, clinically proven therapy for patients with chronic migraine and headache disorders.

If you suffer from frequent, debilitating headaches, Botox may help reduce the frequency, duration, and severity of your attacks, improving your quality of life.


Why Botox helps with migraines

Botox works by temporarily relaxing overactive muscles and blocking the release of pain-related neurotransmitters. When injected into carefully mapped areas of the head, face, and neck, it calms the pain pathways that trigger migraines.

Many patients report:

  • Fewer migraine days per month

  • Reduced reliance on pain medication

  • Less severe and shorter attacks

  • Improved mood, focus, and energy
