Botulinum toxin is an effective treatment for Hyperhidrosis, a condition characterized by excessive sweating. The treatment works by blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive these signals, the production of sweat is significantly reduced in the treated area.

• Preparation : The skin is cleaned and numbed with a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort.
• Injection : Botox is injected just below the skin in the affected areas using a fine needle. Multiple injections are typically needed to cover the entire area.
• Post-treatment : There’s minimal downtime, and patients can usually return to normal activities immediately after the procedure.
• Effectiveness and Duration Results typically begin to appear within a few days, with full effects noticeable after 1 to 2 weeks.

The effects of Botox for Hyperhidrosis generally last between 4 to 6 months, after which the treatment can be repeated. Most patients experience a 70-90% reduction in sweating in the treated areas.
