Medical Botox® Treatments in Kelowna

Medical Botox® is a therapeutic use of botulinum toxin designed to relax overactive muscles or block nerve signals that cause excessive sweating. It works by temporarily interrupting communication between nerves and targeted muscles or sweat glands, helping to alleviate pain, tension, or perspiration. When injected in small, precise doses, it can relieve symptoms like migraines, TMJ pain, or hyperhidrosis without affecting surrounding areas. 

At Kelowna Hills, our physician-led team customizes each treatment based on your diagnosis to ensure maximum efficacy and comfort. Medical Botox® is safe, effective, and approved by Health Canada for several medical conditions. Many patients experience noticeable improvement within days, with full benefits developing over the next few weeks.

Yes, Medical Botox® is an FDA and Health Canada–approved treatment for chronic migraine prevention. It works by blocking pain signals from nerves and relaxing muscles that contribute to tension and headache onset. Injections are typically placed in specific areas such as the forehead, temples, neck, and shoulders to reduce frequency and severity of migraines. Many patients report a significant decrease in headache days within the first few weeks after treatment.

At Kelowna Hills, our approach focuses on long-term relief through precise placement and consistent follow-up care. When performed by experienced medical injectors, Medical Botox® can greatly improve quality of life for those suffering from persistent headaches.

Absolutely. Botox® is clinically proven to treat hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that activate sweat glands. It’s commonly used for areas such as the underarms, palms, feet, or scalp where sweating is difficult to control with topical solutions. Treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and provide results lasting six to twelve months.

At Kelowna Hills, our injectors tailor dosing and injection placement to ensure effective and even sweat reduction. Most clients notice a dramatic decrease in perspiration within one to two weeks, allowing them to feel more comfortable and confident in daily life. Medical Botox® is a discreet and long-lasting solution for this often-frustrating condition.

Yes, Medical Botox® can provide effective relief for patients suffering from TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders caused by chronic jaw clenching or teeth grinding. By relaxing overactive jaw muscles, Botox® helps alleviate pain, reduce muscle strain, and prevent damage to surrounding joints and teeth. Treatments also improve comfort during speaking, eating, or sleeping, which are commonly affected by TMJ tension.

At Kelowna Hills, our physician-led injectors carefully target the specific muscles responsible for tension to ensure balanced results. Most patients experience relief within one to two weeks, with benefits lasting three to four months. Regular treatments can help retrain muscle movement and significantly reduce long-term discomfort.

The longevity of Medical Botox® depends on the condition being treated and your body’s individual response. For chronic migraines or TMJ tension, effects generally last three to four months, while hyperhidrosis relief can extend up to a year. With regular maintenance sessions, results often become more consistent and longer-lasting as the body adapts.

Your injector will help you establish a personalized schedule to maintain optimal relief and prevent symptom recurrence. Over time, many patients find they need fewer treatments as their condition improves. Our team at Kelowna Hills will guide you through your journey with ongoing assessments to ensure lasting comfort and balance.
