ASIS for Botox in Chronic Migraine
Status unconfirmed · Phase 1/Phase 2
Conditions studied: Chronic Migraine More than15 Days Per Month, and Lasting 4 Hours a Day or Longer.
In brief
Botox acts on nerve endings, yet there are no nerve endings inside the muscle, where they are typically injected. All nerves terminate on the fascia, where ASIS device can precisely deliver Botox by creating that subdermal bloodless space, between the skin and muscle. Thus enhancing and prolonging Botox's efficacy, at the same time prevent it's unnecessary adverse reactions and distant spread, especially since Botox has no reason to travel to the rest of the body any way.
