Botoks For Sweating

What Causes Generalized Hyperhidrosis?

There are many reasons for this type of hyperhidrosis, but mainly it may happen due to a particular disease, medical problem, or medications the person is undertaking. 

Unlike focal hyperhidrosis, generalized hyperhidrosis is not recommended for botoks treatment. In other words, there is no need for Botoks injections, as generalized hyperhidrosis can be cured by resolving the original cause.

We understand from the above that only focal hyperhidrosis is treated by botoks injection.

Unfortunately, many people with hyperhidrosis are unaware that they have excessive sweating because they don’t talk about it as they feel embarrassed. Thus the problem is never figured out to be treated well.

Hyperhidrosis may cause serious consequences, such as:

• Interfere negatively with social life and social activities, as people with hyperhidrosis will hesitate before getting involved socially.
• Interfere negatively with sports & physical activities.

Basically, it may have a bad impact on mental health. Some people may try non-medical treatment at first, such as changing their lifestyle, but it does not usually work. Therefore, botoks type A injections may be the most beneficial one here.

Everything is to assure you that you are in safe hands…

Where are Botoks Injections for sweating applied on the body?

The most common botoks injection for sweating is the armpits – the underarm sweating area. It is the safest and most painless injection among all other areas. It is also approved by the FDA.

Alongside the armpit, the botoks injections can be used in the palms, soles of feet, and face.

How to prepare for Botoks Injections for Sweating

Botoks injection is not invasive and is an outpatient procedure, but certain preparations must be made.

• During the consultation, the patient must brief the dermatologist about their health conditions, health history, and medications. Knowing this assists in avoiding possible side effects.
• The patient must not shave their hair for at least 3 to 4 days before the procedure.
• Doctors usually request their patients to wear a short-sleeve t-shirt, preferably with a dark color to avoid visible ink spots, on the day of the procedure.

What to Expect After Botoks Injections

The effect of the botoks injection can be noticed within 2 to 4 days after the injections, but the full impact will be seen after two weeks.

Since botoks injection for sweating has a temporary effect, the patient will need to repeat the procedure again. For example;

• For underarm injections, the patient may need booster injections after every 7-16 months.
• For hands and feet, the patient may need to repeat the botoks injection after 6 months. The injections on these body parts don’t usually last as long as it does with the armpit.
