What is Hyperhidrosis Botox?
Hyperhidrosis Botox involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into areas with dense sweat glands to temporarily block the nerve signals that trigger sweating. At Seye Clinic we treat areas where excessive sweat causes discomfort, such as the underarms, palms, soles, and forehead. It is not surgery that removes sweat glands; instead it regulates how much sweat is produced to ease everyday inconvenience. Because it is done with injections alone, the treatment is short and you can return to normal activities the same day.
How It Works
Sweat is released when a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, secreted at nerve endings, stimulates the sweat glands. Botulinum toxin temporarily suppresses the release of this acetylcholine, blocking the 'produce sweat' signal that travels from the nerve to the gland. As a result, sweating in the treated area is noticeably reduced. Results usually begin to appear 3-7 days after treatment and become most pronounced around two weeks. Over time, as nerve function gradually recovers, sweating returns toward its original level, which is why periodic repeat treatment is needed.
