Treatment of Palmar Hyperhidrosis
Some people experience uncontrollable and abnormal hands sweating. This condition called palmar hyperhidrosis may cause much stress and embarrassment and decrease confidence level. Therefore, people may feel reluctant and embarrassed to shake other people’s hands. Fortunately, there is a treatment that helps treat this condition. One of the effective ways to make your palms less sweaty is getting Botox injected into your hands.
Botox injection is a highly effective treatment for sweaty palms and hyperhidrosis. Botox is an FDA -approved product that consists of botulinum toxin A. This injection effectively reduces hands sweating for 4-6 months. To make the injection less painful, we preliminarily apply an anesthetic. You may have a slightly prickling feeling during the treatment. Botox temporarily blocks the activation of nerves on the sweat glands.
It is better to avoid drinking alcoholic drinks and doing hardsports after Botox injections. It will take around a week for the Botox injection to take the effect. Though the effect of Botox injection is temporary, you will enjoy the results. It is highly recommended to repeat the treatments every 4-6 months to prolong the effects.
