Excessive Sweating and Botox Treatment

Excessive Sweating and Its Effects

Erdem Çamlıca Hospital Dermatologist Specialist Dr. Burcu Barutçugil emphasizes that excessive sweating can lead to bacterial, fungal infections, and skin irritations due to the disruption of the skin barrier. In cases of excessive sweating, botulinum toxin treatment can be an effective solution.

Excessive Sweating and Its Causes

Excessive sweating is a normal physiological condition that occurs usually in situations such as stress, physical activities, and hot weather. However, excessive sweating can negatively affect social life, and in such cases, treatment may be necessary. Investigating the underlying causes of excessive sweating is important.

Botulinum Toxin Treatment and Process

Botulinum toxin application is a method that temporarily stops excessive sweating and blocks the function of sweat glands. The application is usually done in areas such as armpits, palms, and soles. The effects of the treatment generally last for 6-9 months.

Botulinum Toxin Treatment and Application

Botulinum toxin treatment is a quick procedure that lasts approximately 10 minutes. The effects start to be seen within 3-7 days after the treatment, and sweating is prevented for an average of 6-9 months. After the treatment, individuals can return to their daily activities immediately.

Dr. Burcu Barutçugil: “Botulinum toxin treatment is a frequently preferred method to quickly, reliably, and non-surgically solve the problem of excessive sweating.”
