The treatment of depression using Botox is still under research investigation. Further trials are being conducted, with the goal of determining safety and efficacy, getting FDA approval, and improving access to care.
Currently, we are not recruiting for any research trials in Austin, Texas. However, several locations throughout the U.S. are recruiting. Please see "Clinical Trials" for more information.
If you would like to receive Botox for depression, please be aware that it is currently not FDA approved for this use, and is being used "off-label." As such it is not yet covered by insurance and is considered a "cosmetic procedure."
The cosmetic effects of Botox last between 2-4 months. In research trials, the antidepressant effects lasted up to 6 months, but future trials are needed to determine both efficacy and duration of effect.
1) Patients will not be scheduled unless they are currently being followed by a psychiatrist. They should speak with their psychiatrist about this procedure before proceeding.
2) For a consultation to receive Botox © injections, schedule an appointment with Dr. Jason Reichenberg.
3) If you do not have a psychiatrist, please schedule a consultation with a local psychiatrist first.
Dr. Reichenberg’s Botox cosmetic clinic is located at:
Dermatology Clinic (downtown Austin, near the State Capitol)
