Hyperhidrosis treatment with Botox involves injecting small amounts of Botox into the affected areas to block nerve signals that stimulate sweat production, effectively reducing excessive sweating.

What is it?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating that goes beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. People with hyperhidrosis may sweat profusely even when they are not overheated, anxious, or exercising.

There are two types of hyperhidrosis: primary focal hyperhidrosis and secondary generalized hyperhidrosis. Primary focal hyperhidrosis is the most common type and typically affects specific areas of the body, such as the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, underarms, and face. Secondary generalized hyperhidrosis is less common and is usually caused by an underlying medical condition or medication.

Hyperhidrosis can be a source of significant discomfort and embarrassment, and can interfere with daily activities and social interactions. It can also lead to skin problems, such as fungal or bacterial infections.

How does it work?

Botox (Botulinum toxin) is a treatment option for hyperhidrosis, particularly for excessive sweating in the underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis). When injected into the affected area, Botox works by blocking the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which is responsible for activating the sweat glands.

By preventing the activation of sweat glands, Botox can significantly reduce sweating in the treated area. The effects of Botox typically last for several months before a repeat treatment is necessary.

Botox injections are a safe and effective treatment for hyperhidrosis, with few side effects. However, it's important to have the injections administered by a qualified healthcare professional to ensure the proper dosage and placement of the injections.
