Medical Botox Treatments

Many of our clients suffer from dental grinding (bruxism), migraines and excess sweating (hyperhidrosis) which can be treated with Botox/Dysport. All clients considering these treatments are first assessed by our medical director to ensure they're appropriate for the treatments, then treated by one of our nurses where appropriate.


Treatments are frequently covered by private insurance (not OHIP) and our staff are familiar with working with insurance companies to increase the likelihood of successful insurance claims.

Migraine

Suffering from chronic migraines can significantly impact your quality of life. At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, we offer a proven solution in the form of Botox injections. Administered into multiple muscles, Botox helps to prevent headaches in adults, providing much-needed relief.


This treatment is specifically designed for those who experience chronic migraines for 15 or more days each month, with each headache lasting four or more hours. Recommended for individuals aged 18 and older, our migraine treatment aims to lessen the frequency and severity of your headaches, helping you reclaim control over your life.

Bruxism and TMJ

Living with conditions like bruxism and TMJ can lead to discomfort and damage to your teeth. At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, we offer Botox injections as an effective treatment option. A small dose of Botox is precisely injected into your masseter muscle—the large muscle responsible for moving the jaw. 


This treatment relaxes the muscle, thereby reducing involuntary jaw clenching and teeth grinding that characterize these conditions. In just a 30-45 minute session, you can start experiencing relief, reducing wear and tear on your teeth while alleviating associated pain. Trust our expert team to help manage your symptoms effectively.

Hyperhidrosis

Hyperhidrosis, or excess sweating, can be a distressing condition. At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, we offer a viable solution through our Botox treatments. By injecting Botox into the affected areas, we are able to temporarily block the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. With these signals disrupted, the excessive sweating ceases. 


Primarily used in the axilla (armpits), the effects of this treatment typically last between 5-7 months, providing substantial relief for our patients. The entire process takes between 30-45 minutes. 


Note: We also offer direct invoicing to insurance companies for medication costs when needed.

  • Do I need a referral from my doctor to get a medical botox treatment?

    While referrals from healthcare professionals like dentists and neurologists are welcomed, they are not necessary for you to receive treatment at Waterloo Medical Cosmetics. 


    We believe in making our services accessible to those who need them, and we will conduct a comprehensive consultation to understand your needs and expectations before recommending any treatment. 


    This consultation involves a 360-degree assessment with one of our cosmetic nurses and a medical aesthetician. 


    However, if you have a referral or any medical reports relevant to your treatment, feel free to bring them along to your consultation.

  • What kind of results can I expect from the medical botox treatments?

    The results of our medical botox services can vary depending on the individual and the specific treatment provided. 


    For example, professional Botox treatments for migraines, teeth grinding, or excessive sweating usually show noticeable improvement within a week, and the effects can last for several months. 


    However, it's important to note that while our treatments are designed to manage and alleviate symptoms, they may not completely eradicate the underlying issue. 


    Regular follow-up treatments might be necessary for maintaining the results. Our team will discuss your individual expectations and potential outcomes during your consultation.
