No Sweat! Botox Helps to Control Hyperhidrosis

Everyone sweats. It's your body's way of cooling itself when you're hot or under stress. However, some people sweat more than others whether its under their arms or on their hands or feet. The resulting sweat marks and body odor often cause severe embarrassment or sometimes even psychological issues. These people suffer from a condition known as hyperhidrosis, a condition that affects one in twenty people worldwide.

Contrary to what some might believe, excessive sweating is treatable. Traditional therapies include antiperspirants, medications or even surgery to remove sweat glands or block nerves that produce sweat. Although effective, there are side effects to surgery and medication, and antiperspirants can only do so much.

Recent developments have revolutionized the way doctors can treat hyperhidrosis by using botulinum toxin, or what is more commonly known as Botox. Botox has quickly become a house hold name for treating wrinkles and fine lines, but when used in a therapeutic application it can also block sweat glands. The quick procedure involves injecting small amounts of Botox in the affected areas. The results are apparent within 2 - 4 days and last up to a year. Most extended health care plans even cover the treatment.

Dr. Alibhai has treated countless patients for hyperhidrosis and all of them have felt so liberated by the results and no longer have to worry about sweating in the wrong places at the wrong time!
