Axillary Hyperhidrosis
Excess sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition where sweat glands are over-active. The body normally sweats to regulate body temperature. In hyperhidrosis, however, the sweating is unnecessary and can be embarrassing. The most common areas affected are the scalp, forehead, underarms, hands and feet.
Botulinum toxin works by relaxing the muscles of the sweat gland in order reduce the production and secretion of sweat. Botulinum toxin has been used in medical treatments for over 4 decades and was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of wrinkles in 1989. It is now one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world.
