Excessive Sweating
When our body’s internal temperature rises, the natural response is for our nervous system to produce sweat as a cooling mechanism. For some individuals, however, the nerves responsible for activating sweat glands can become overactive, leading to an overproduction of perspiration that may be uncomfortable or lead to feelings of self-consciousness in certain situations. Medically referred to as hyperhidrosis, this excessive sweating commonly occurs in the hands, feet, underarms, forehead, and various other regions of the body, and it affects about three percent of the population worldwide. Fortunately, we offer an effective, non-surgical procedure designed to help prevent excessive sweating.
What We Can Do for Excessive Sweating
Our minimally invasive treatment for hyperhidrosis can effectively resolve excessive sweating for approximately seven months, and the results can be maintained with follow-up treatment. There is little to no discomfort associated with the procedure, and your normal daily activities can often be resumed immediately.
BOTOX COSMETIC® Injections for Hyperhidrosis
BOTOX® for hyperhidrosis works by temporarily blocking nerve signals that trigger the production of sweat in targeted treatment areas.
