Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond what is necessary for regulating body temperature. It commonly affects the underarms, hands, feet, and face.

Botox works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive these signals, the excessive sweating stops.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A fine needle is used to inject Botox into the targeted areas, and a topical anesthetic can be applied to enhance comfort.

The procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated.

There is minimal to no downtime required. Patients can usually return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.

The effects of Botox for hyperhidrosis typically last 4-6 months. Regular maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain the results.

Common side effects include temporary bruising, swelling, and mild discomfort at the injection sites. Serious complications are rare but can include muscle weakness or asymmetry.

Good candidates are individuals who experience excessive sweating that interferes with their daily activities and have not responded well to antiperspirants or other treatments.

Yes, Botox for hyperhidrosis can be combined with other treatments or skincare regimens to enhance overall results and address other skin concerns.
