How does botox work against sweating?
Sweating is of course very normal and even important for our bodies, for example to keep our temperature right. However, it can be very annoying when you notice that you sweat more than average. Botox stops excessive sweating by blocking the signals from the nerves to the sweat glands. As a result, the treated sweat glands no longer get a "cue" to produce sweat. The treatment focuses only on the sweat glands in the treated area, such as the armpits or forehead, so you will continue to sweat normally in other areas. You won't notice that you sweat more in other areas! Within a few days you will notice the results, and this usually lasts for 6 months or longer.

Causes of excessive sweating
Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, results from overactive sweat glands. This can be caused by:
- Genetic predisposition: Hyperhidrosis often runs in families.
- Hormonal changes: Sweating can increase due to puberty, pregnancy or menopause.
- Medical conditions: For example, for diabetes, thyroid problems or obesity.
- Stress or emotions: Psychological triggers can exacerbate excessive sweating.
Regardless of the cause, botox provides an effective solution to the problem. Without displacing the problem.

How does botox work for armpit sweating?
An underarm botox treatment involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin (botox) with a fine needle into the skin in areas such as the armpits. Botox works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the sweat glands in the armpits. These nerves normally send a signal to the axillary glands to produce sweat. When this process is overactive, you may suffer from excessive sweating. You may notice this by getting wet spots in your armpits quickly and often, even without physical exertion. It can also cause unpleasant odors. By stopping the communication of the nerves to the sweat glands in the armpits with botox, the excessive sweat production in this area stops.
