What Is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond what’s necessary to regulate body temperature. It can affect the underarms, palms, feet, and even the face, often causing embarrassment, social anxiety, and frequent wardrobe changes. At Tucson Cosmetics, we understand how frustrating this condition can be—and we’re here to help.
How Botox® Treats Excessive Sweating
Botox® (Botulinum Toxin) works by blocking nerve signals that activate sweat glands. In hyperhidrosis treatment, Botox® is injected just beneath the skin in the affected area. This temporarily inactivates the sweat glands, significantly reducing or even eliminating perspiration in that zone.
Common Treatment Areas:
-
Underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis)
-
Palms of the hands
-
Soles of the feet
-
Forehead and facial zones
