Sweating on a hot day or while you are exercising is natural and necessary. Our bodies produce sweat to regulate our body temperature. But if you suffer from excessive sweating, known as hyperhidrosis, you know the embarrassment and social anxiety this can cause. If you sweat even when you are not warm, contact us at ShineMD Medspa & Liposuction Center to ask about Botox for hyperhidrosis in Houston. Botox may be able to help you.
When our sweat glands work properly and moisture hits our skin, the surrounding air cools the sweat, which cools our skin and causes our core temperature to go down. People in Houston who live with hyperhidrosis may find they are sweating almost every waking hour, regardless of their activity, mood, or surrounding temperature.
People who experience this kind of excessive sweating may find they constantly wear dark clothes to hide damp stains, avoid shaking people’s hands, or need to change their socks during the day.
This can lead to debilitating social anxiety, stress, and awkwardness, which can lead to even more sweating.
Botox is made from botulinum toxin and is considered a neuromodulator. We know this is helpful in isolating the muscles that cause certain lines and wrinkles because it blocks the nerve’s signal from reaching those muscles.
The same happens when your doctor uses Botox for hyperhidrosis in Houston. Botox blocks the signal from the nerve responsible for triggering the sweat gland to produce sweat.
The first step in the treatment process is determining your candidacy for this particular treatment method. Treatment sessions with Botox are generally short, and there is no significant preparation or recovery associated with the experience.
The injections for Botox for hyperhidrosis are very shallow, and most Houston clients report feeling no discomfort. The injections are made with a very fine needle and in a grid pattern over every one to two centimeters.
When treatment is over, you can return to your normal activities immediately. You can even schedule treatment during a break from work and return to the office after your appointment.
Results will vary for each person, but results often begin to show within a few days, and the best results are generally enjoyed after a few weeks. Most clients report up to an 87% decrease in their sweating. This newfound dryness lasts between 4 to 12 months, but sometimes it can last up to 14 months.
To preserve your results, a regular series of treatments may be recommended, Botox for hyperhidrosis is a temporary treatment in Houston, but the more often you get it, the longer you can go between treatments.
