Hyperhidrosis is the medical term for excessive sweating, which is an ailment that affects many men and women. For patients with hyperhidrosis, they often sweat so much it soaks or stains clothing and leaves visible marks.
This excessive sweating can be embarrassing or uncomfortable and cause distress for many. It is caused by the body’s natural triggers for sweat, such as heat, nerves, discomfort, but is significantly worse when compared to others due to the overstimulation of the nerves that activate the sweat glands.
Hyperhidrosis affects sweat glands, which are located all over the body. It appears most severely in eccrine sweat glands, which are found in large quantities in areas like the armpits (the most common), the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, back of the neck, forehead, and more.
With the proper tools, patients can treat and maintain their hyperhidrosis. At Troiano Facial Plastics in West Palm Beach hyperhidrosis treatments are available to help target those overstimulated sweat glands and temporarily suspend their ability to release excess sweat. Botox injections are FDA-approved for the treatment of excessive sweating.
The active ingredient in Botox is botulinum toxin type A, which is a neurotoxin that targets the small glands to make sweat and temporarily reduces their overactivity. The actual injection process is fairly quick and easy. The Botox is injected directly into the armpit using an ultra-thin needle. A numbing solution is available to reduce discomfort. You’ll start to see an improvement within the two to four days with full dryness effects around two weeks after your injection.

Botox treatments for excessive sweating can be incredibly effective but do not have permanent results. Patients will see an improvement in the hyperhidrosis in the first few days after their procedure, and should finally be able to enjoy total dryness effects two weeks after their injections.
Overall, patients can enjoy these results anywhere from four months to a year. As you get more treatments over time, you may see the results last longer.
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition that can impact your ability to comfortably do certain things and impact your self-esteem.
