Botox is a neurotoxin that specifically targets and affects the neurons (nerve cells). Widely used for cosmetic purposes, it is well-known for its ability to temporarily reduce wrinkles and signs of aging.

Medical practitioners regard Botox as a star treatment because it produces remarkable results in a short time.

Due to the way it works, Botox is highly effective for Axillary Hyperhidrosis. Botox injections work by blocking the neurotransmitter responsible for activating the sweat glands. Ordinarily, your nervous system triggers these glands to cool your body when your temperature rises. However, if you suffer from hyperhidrosis, the signaling becomes excessive.

When Botox is administered in the area, it makes the sweat glands inactive by disrupting the signaling process. However, it is important to note here that Botox treatment for axillary hyperhidrosis works locally. It does not halt sweating in other parts of the body

The main advantage of this treatment is the extended relief it offers. The effects usually last for 4 to 6 months. Furthermore, Botox treatments are relatively painless while being an effective non-invasive treatment for excessive sweating.
