The summer months are upon us! While we all love the warmer months if you suffer from excessive sweating which is actually a medical condition called hyperhidrosis it can cause some embarrassing moments. Whether you are at work, playing sports or just doing everyday activities those of us with excessive sweating it can become an issue (trying to get armpit stains out of t-shirts can be difficult). One of the most popular treatments to help with this is by injecting a neurotoxin such as Botox or Dysport can reduce that excessive sweating. Most people think that Botox and products like it are just meant to smooth wrinkles but it can help out in other ways. Here at La Belle Vie Medical Care and Aesthetics, we offer this service and many more.

How Does it Work?

Neurotoxins have been around for a long time now and proven to be safe and effective for many different conditions both medically and for aesthetic purposes. They work by paralyzing or weakening certain muscles or by blocking different nerves. In the armpits, it works by blocking the nerve before it reaches the sweat glands. There are actually quite a few other conditions that these products can be used for besides sweating and wrinkles here are few examples:

  • Migraine headaches
  • Muscular disorders
  • Bladder and bowel disorders
  • Neurological disorders

The Procedure

The procedure for sweating is pretty simple. We usually will apply a small amount of a topical numbing crème or ice. We then clean the area with alcohol, marking your skin where the injections will go. There are about 10-15 little injections with a very small needle. It normally takes 50 units per side and will start to take effect within 3 to 7 days and can completely stop sweating or at least reduce it, with results lasting typically 4 to 6 months. The procedure takes about 30 to 45 minutes in total.
