What is the treatment?

Botox is an effective treatment for excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis. It works by blocking the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands, reducing sweat production in the treated area. 

Key Details:

Treatment Areas: Botox is used for underarm sweating but can also be used for areas like palms, soles, and forehead.

Procedure:

1. • The practitioner injects Botox into the skin using a fine needle.

   • The process is quick, typically taking about 20–30 minutes.

Results:

1. • Effects usually begin within 3–7 days and reach full effectiveness in about 2 weeks.

   • Results can last 4–6 months, after which repeat treatments may be needed.

Suitability:

1. • Unsuitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
