Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition associated with chronic or excessive sweating. These elevated levels of sweating occur at any time and regardless of your activity level. Hyperhidrosis most commonly affects underarms, but it can affect other areas of the body like the feet, head, hands, and more.
BOTOX for hyperhidrosis reduces sweating by altering how nerve signals interact within your body. It is a neuromodulator, meaning it prevents nerve signals from reaching muscles or, in the case of excessive sweating, sweat glands. When these signals do not reach the glands, sweating is prevented.
