Botox for armpits<\/h2>\n

The production of sweat is a totally normal process whose function is none other than to regulate the temperature of the whole body. Axillary hyperhidrosis, however, is a disorder that causes excess sweating located in the armpit area.<\/p>\n

To correct it, there is a treatment that consists of making small superficial injections of botulinum toxin (or Botox) in the skin of the armpits. In this way, the transmission of the nervous stimuli that activate the sweat glands is blocked, causing a great decrease or even the total cessation of sweating <\/strong> in the treated area.<\/p>\n

Most cases of axillary hyperhidrosis are mild and can be treated simply with antiperspirants (deodorants containing hydrated aluminum hydroxide). In the most severe cases, however, one of the treatments of choice is botulinum toxin injections or underarm botox<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis with botulinum toxin is based on the administration of multiple injections of the drug (about 25 in each armpit), using a very fine needle. In this way, the toxin diffuses homogeneously throughout the treated area, blocking the production of sweat.<\/p>\n

The procedure is very well tolerated by patients. The injections barely produce a minimum sensation of pain, so the prior use of local anesthesia is not even necessary.<\/p>\n

After treatment, the patient can continue with their usual activities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The effects are noticed quickly, in a few days, and are maintained for a long period (about 7-8 months on average, in some cases up to a year). In many cases, one treatment a year, administered in the spring months, is enough to keep axillary hyperhidrosis under control.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
