Many people are disturbed by the problem of excessive sweating, especially in the hands, feet and armpits. The name in the medical literature for the excessive sweating disorder that makes social life unbearable for people is "hyperhidrosis". Because hyperhidrosis patients produce excessive amounts of sweat, their hands, feet, face and armpits are usually moist.
In these people, sweat glands are overstimulated depending on temperature, social environment, obesity or emotional state, and sweating occurs more than it should.
Sweating is natural, but the increase in sweat released to the skin surface due to overactivity of the sweat glands may also cause odor.
In the treatment of Hyperhidrosis, Local application of Botulinum Toxin Type A is very successful. Botulinum Toxin Type A works by reducing excessive nerve stimulation to the sweat glands. The application is practical. It is applied as tiny injections under the skin, in the armpit, sole of the foot or in the area of the hands where there is excessive sweating. Pain control is provided with local anesthetic creams or cooling spray, ensuring that the person has a painless and comfortable procedure. Its effectiveness continues for an average of 6 months. Repetition over time increases the effectiveness of the treatment.
