How Botox Stops Excessive Sweating
The nervous system controls every aspect of how our bodies operate. Perspiration occurs when the body’s temperature rises, which causes the nerves to activate the sweat glands. The evaporation of the moisture (sweat) then enables the body to efficiently cool itself. However, in patients with hyperhidrosis, the nerves that activate the sweat glands are overactive.
When Botox is injected into the area of the patient’s body that is producing too much sweat, the overactive nerves are paralyzed – rendering them incapable of signaling the sweat glands to produce perspiration. So you don’t sweat in the specific area where the Botox has been injected.
