Treatment of hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating).
Excessive sweat, especially underarm sweat, is not only embarrassing - it can stain and ruin your clothes. Even with the best of deodorants, excess sweating can still be a problem for women as well as men.
Botulinum toxin (Dysport) reduces sweating by temporarily stopping the nerve signals between the nerves and sweat glands in the area that has been treated. Dysport is administered by multiple tiny injections into the area where the sweat glands lie.
Treating the armpits, hands or feet with Dysport reduces sweating for 9-12months.
