subject: Botox Treatment to Control Sweating [print this page] Sweating can be socially inappropriate and unacceptable, even though it is a regular bodily function similar to urination and defecation. The difference is that its visibility is what makes it unattractive and unwanted. Excessive sweating can be embarrassing and people have no biological control over their sweating which is akin to having an incontinent condition.
The main areas affected are the armpits and the face, but these days sweat reduction agents can be administered by injection treatment to reduce or eliminate the production of sweat in the problem area.
A popular blocking agent is Botox Neurotoxin which is usually administered under the arm or to sweat areas on the face, using a course of 15 injections. The course may be repeated after 6-7 months if no improvement is evident. However, a majority of patients do not require a repeat course of injections as their sweating is significantly reduced after one course.
The Botox neurotoxin blocks electrical pulses in the nerves to the sweat glands in the skin, effectively rendering the gland inactive thereby stopping the production of sweat. A very small quantity of Botox is all that is needed to have the desired effect on the basis that the injection is carried out with careful precision so as to impact the nerves in the targeted area.
