Escobedo Skin Center Extends its Botox Service to Muscle Spasm Therapy

March 16, 2010 - PRLog -- Every year, thousands of Americans suffer adverse neural effects resulting from stroke, traumatic brain injury, and multiple sclerosis.  One of the most common of these affects is spasticity, or muscle spasms, in the flexor muscles.  Flexor muscles are the connecting muscles around the skeleton that affect movement.  Botox® Cosmetic works to treat the temporary paralysis of the spastic muscle by blocking tissue connections between the nerves and muscles.

“Where botox was once used to treat wrinkles, it can now go beyond appearance and treat patients suffering from problems with mobility.  I am absolutely thrilled to commence treating patients suffering from muscle spasms in these FDA approved areas.  Patients in Austin can now feel beautiful from the inside out.”- Doctor Michael Escobedo

Dr. Michael Escobedo has been a pioneer in multiple medical uses of Botox® Cosmetic in Central Texas and has treated hundreds of patients using botox in his 11 years of service.
