The Best Way To Stop Excessive Sweating – Botox Hyperhidrosis Treatment

Excessive sweating brings embarrassment. People suffering from this problem would do anything to get rid of it. Actually, excessive sweating is a common abnormality among many people, all around the world. It occurs largely due to the disturbed body temperature. If there is a high concentration of sweat glands in the body, excessive sweating occurs easily.

Excessive Sweating Areas
The medical term of excessive sweating is Hyperhidrosis. Hands, feet, face and underarm are the most effected body parts, when it comes to excessive sweating.
Excessive sweating usually attacks at teenage years. It starts with few parts of the body but slowly spreads all over. Some people inherit excessive sweating while others develop this from the environment and food habit. Though it is not proven, some researchers indicate that abnormal brain function and sympathetic nervous system are behind the excessive sweating in one’s body. Some researches also indicate that disturbance in the nerve system leads to excessive sweating as well. The temperature and emotions of the body are also responsible for excessive sweating.
Hyperhidrosis causes a person to sweat above the normal limits without any particular reason. Excessive sweating can affect the different parts in a person’s body. The areas that suffer the most are the underarm, feet and hand. Apart from general embarrassment caused to the person he also suffers from body odor.

Botox injections Botox hyperhidrosis treatment (stop excessive sweating) – FAQS – as from our FAQ Page for Hyperhidrosis

What is Botox and how does it work to stop excessive sweating?
Botox is a very pure preparation of a protein, Botulinum toxin type A. When small doses are injected into the skin, Botox blocks the actions of the nerves that supply the eccrine glands; this prevents the glands from producing sweat. Botox blocks the nerve endings but over about 6-8 months new nerve endings grow to replace them.

What happens during treatment?
Using a very fine needle, a small amount of a solution of Botox is injected into 10 to 15 places about 1.5 – 2 cm apart and spread evenly in each area. A course of botox excessive sweating treatment (hyperhidrosis) takes about a total of 30 minutes.

Does It Hurt?

Only minimally. Because the skin of the armpit is thin, Botox hyperhidrosis treatment there is barely felt. The needles used are extremely fine, and they themselves are not felt much but the Botox injection itself stings lightly.

How quickly does it work and how long will the effects last?
You should notice some change for the better within a week of your treatment. Different people have different responses to treatment. In a clinical trials, sweat production was reduced by more than 90% in two weeks with botox hyperhidrosis treatment.

Is Botulinum Toxin Safe?
Yes, to put it quite simply. We only use botulinum toxins licensed in the UK which has been used for medicinal use for decades.

Is Botulinum Toxin Not Expensive?
No, not when you consider the cost of frequent changes of clothing, deodorants etc. The cost of embarrassment and social phobia is also high.

    Stop sweating, you asked if there is something less severe than surgery or botox? These treatments are very effective although I wouldn’t say botox was extreme. Topical things such as alumium chloride hexahydrate can be effective but can cause painful skin irritation too. Most sufferers will consider any treatment as this condition is so debilitating and practitioner who treat patients will have undergone and will give the patient information on all options to enable them to make an informed decision
