Hyperhidrosis (Excess Sweating)
Excess sweating can ruin your clothes, as well as cause both physical and social discomfort. This often embarrassing problem is commonly seen on the underarms of both men and women. However, it can now be treated effectively!
Treatment
Botox® is the treatment of choice for hyperhidrosis. Tiny injections are painlessly placed into the underarms.
Botox® safely and reversibly stuns overactive sweat glands for up to 12 months. The chemical that Botox® inhibits for wrinkles is also involved in the release of sweat in the body. This procedure is virtually free of side effects. The treatment does not have any effect on the body’s ability to regulate temperature or on other sweat glands elsewhere on the body. This treatment is also great for individuals sensitive to deodorants and antiperspirants. The treatment of hyperhidrosis is approved by the FDA, covered under a flexible spending account and is often covered by healthcare insurance companies.
