Botox can help to treat excessive underarm sweating
Individuals with hyperhidrosis, or a condition that causes excessive sweating, even when you are not exercising, can cause self-consciousness and discomfort for many. Thankfully, there is a solution that can help: Botox for underarm sweating!
What is Underarm Sweat Elimination?
Botox is a neurotoxin made up of botulinum toxin type A. It works by stopping nerve signals that cause facial muscles to contract and create lines. When Botox is injected in the armpits, it works the same way, only it targets glands instead of muscles. Botox blocks the message telling the glands to secrete sweat, so they do not.
During your treatment, you will have the choice of topical numbing cream. This can help to numb the underarms during treatment. Your injector will then map out the injection points on your armpits.
The Botox will then be injected into the treatment areas. Most individuals do not find the treatment painful and describe it as small pinpricks. Treatment takes about 30 minutes to complete.
Is it safe to stop sweating in the armpits?
While sweating is essential to the body and stops it from overheating, using it in just one area, like the armpits, it safe. Other areas of your body will continue to sweat like normal, so you won’t have to worry about overheating.
