Spasticity Treatment

Spasticity is a condition where the muscles are more tense than they should. It sometimes occurs after neurological injuries and diseases such as stroke, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, etc. The most important treatment is physical training and activity for muscles and joints. Sometimes this is not enough, and then muscular injections of a certain toxin may be of great benefit. The effect lasts for about three months and during that time physical training is even more important. This procedure can be repeated if necessary.

Migraine Treatment

Migraine is a common condition with recurrent attacks of severe headache. Often triggered by hormones, food or weather changes. Sometimes an aura is experienced; neurological phenomena such as disturbance in vision etc. Many can manage by resting or taking strong painkillers, others are very affected and become very ill for up to three days. They often have good use of prophylactic treatment with a biologic neurotoxin. The drug is injected under the skin of the forehead, masticatory muscles and neck. This is done very easy and quick. The toxin blocks the neurological contact with the muscles and the pain signaling for three months. Migraine attacks become milder and more rarely. The injection is then repeated.

Treatment of excessive sweating

Hyperhidrosis is also a fairly common condition. About 3% of the Swedish population suffers from this without any other underlying cause. It consists of excessive sweating without functional benefit and it can lower the quality of life significantly. A biological toxin can block the nerve that stimulates the sweat glands, and after the treatment the area hardly sweat at all. Usually the effect last for six months, but this can vary. The axillaries are the easiest and most common area to treat.

Aesthetic treatment

A botulinum toxin (Botox, Xeomin or Dysport) injection can reduce age-related wrinkles in areas such as on the forehead and around the eyes, known as crows’ feet, frown lines and worry lines. The doctors who perform our treatments are highly skilled and have many years of experience in toxin treatments. We use only licensed drugs from reliable suppliers. Following treatment, we offer a cost-free follow-up, should corrections need to be made. Botulinum toxin treatment is a minor operation that rarely causes any problems. Allergic reactions are extremely uncommon.
