What does a Botox Hyperhidrosis treatment involve?
The procedure is simple. A small amount of the drug is injected under the skin to the affected area using a very fine needle. At the Nasseri Medical Centre, we use local anaesthetic cream to alleviate all discomfort. Botox Hyperhidrosis works by blocking the signal from the nerve to the sweat gland. Once the overactive nerve stops stimulates the sweat gland, the sweating stops. Since the drug only works in the area where it is injected, sweat glands in other parts of the body function normally. There is no risk of getting overheated. You should notice a significant reduction of sweating in the treated areas within seven days of your treatment. Eventually, after about seven months, your excessive sweating will slowly return.
