Can you claim the cost of administering botox injections *for the treatment of migraine headaches*, as a medical expense?

There are two costs for botox treatment for migraine headaches: the medication and the administration of it by the health care provider - in this case, a neurologist. My question is about whether I can claim the cost the neurologist charges to administer the botox injections. I am thinking the answer is 'yes,' because it is for a medical condition and not a cosmetic purpose. Thoughts? Thank you.
