Hyperhidrosis BTX Treatment (Sweating) Underarms
Botulinum toxin otherwise known as BTX is a treatment given by injection into the skin. It is licensed in the UK for axillary hyperhidrosis (sweating). It is a preparation of protein and when small doses are injected into the skin, it blocks the nerves that supply the eccrine glands, this prevents the glands from producing sweat. BTX permanently blocks the nerve endings, but over about 6-12 months new nerve endings grow to replace them. This means that the effects of the treatment can last up to a year but further treatment is necessary. BTX is not suitable to those who are allergic to any of its contents or for those who are pregnant or who suffer from muscle problems. Those on certain antibiotics or any drugs used as muscle relaxants should not have treatment The cost
