When Will You Feel Relief?
You might not notice a difference right away. Most patients begin to experience relief within 7 to 14 days of their first BOTOX appointment. The full effects usually build up by week four, as the medication takes hold in the targeted muscle groups around the head and neck.
How Long Does the Relief Last?
For many people, the benefits last approximately 10 to 12 weeks. After this period, the treated muscles gradually regain activity, and migraine symptoms may return. To maintain relief, it’s important to book repeat injections every three months. Sticking to this schedule not only prolongs the results but may also improve outcomes over time.
Factors That Impact Longevity
Not everyone has the same results. Several factors can influence how long migraine relief lasts:
- Migraine severity and frequency
- How long you’ve been getting BOTOX treatments
- Your individual response to the medication
- Other medications or health conditions
Some patients report fewer migraines with each subsequent session, especially when BOTOX is part of a larger strategy that includes lifestyle adjustments and other types of medical care.
