What is Botox Injection?
Botox Injection is a medical treatment that involves the injection of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that temporarily inhibits nerve signalling to muscles or glands. While it is most often used to smooth out facial wrinkles, Botox Injection is also approved and widely used for treating medical condition known as Hyperhidrosis, which means excessive sweating. People with hyperhidrosis sweat much more than the body needs to stay cool, sometimes even when they are not feeling hot nor exercising. This can affect daily life and make social or work situations uncomfortable. Sweating is controlled by a chemical messenger called acetylcholine, which is released by nerves to activate the sweat glands. People with Hyperhidrosis, these nerves are overactive.
How It Works
Botox Injection works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that trigger your sweat glands. When injected into skin on the target area, it stops these glands from producing too much sweat in the treated area. The treatment is most commonly used for underarms, but at our affiliated clinic it is also effective for the face area such as forehead, temple, corner of the eyes, between the eyebrows, etc. Botox Injection does not affect the rest of your body’s ability to sweat, so your natural temperature regulation is still intact. The treatment is temporary and can last up to 9 months; excessive sweat can return once the Botox wears off.
Botox Injection Procedure
1. Consultation will be conducted by the doctor to examine the sweating areas.
2. The targeted area will be cleaned.
3. Botox Injection will be performed in the targeted area.
