Treatment
- Description: Botox (Botulinum toxin) is an effective treatment for excessive sweating and although mostly applied in the armpits, it can also be used in hands and feet. Botox therefore is superficially injected in the skin. The toxin blocks the release of the messenger substance acetylcholine at the sweat glands and therefore suppresses the sweat production. The injection in the armpit is slightly painful, for more comfort a local anesthetic creme can be applied before. For injections in hands and feet an active nerve blockade is necessary. The full effect arises after a few days and individually lasts 4-6 months.
