I Was Wondering What Your Thoughts Are About Botox Treatment For Localized Hyperhidrosis?
Botox works on my scalp so that sweat doesn’t drip down my forehead and into my eyes. But insurance doesn’t usually pay for it. Need it every 3 months. No bruising, no muscle problems unless it’s too close to your eyes (lids droop); pinches a lot during injections - use the same needle for multiple injections. Well worth it.
I got botox injections in one of my palms to try it out, it was quiet painful as my doctor didnt use anything to numb the area and I chose to not be asleep while they did it. It cleared the area of sweat id say about 80% which was pretty good! However botox only lasted about 3 months for me before the sweating came back. A problem with getting botox in a place like your hands which I had is it weakens your muscles greatly in the area. For a few weeks I couldnt even open a toothpaste tube ! And my hand had bad bruising and the injection spots on it for about a week after getting it.
I received botox injections in both my hands. It was very painful and only work for a week. Not worth it for me at all.
Depends on what type hyperhydrosis you have bit if its primary on hands and armpits there is a surgery to cut the nerves to the sweat glands covered by ohip in ontario. Or there is miradry treatments which is basicly lazer sweat gland removal $1600 a treatment most ppl need 1-3treatments
