Facial Hyperhidrosis - Itchy Face After Sweating
Hi, I am a 20 years old asian male. My face is itchy everytime i sweat and i have facial hyperhidrosis. The itching started after i did chemical peels for acne scars. I consulted a neurologist, but he said nothing effective could be done for facial hyperhidrosis. I realise that is might be a contributing factor to my acne as i cant help but scratch my face, particularly my forehead and jaw. What can be done to stop this sweating and itching?

Hyperhidrosis of the Face - Botox
Botox is really good to help reduce facial sweating, which may help control the acne for the reasons you mentioned above. I don't recommend injecting it in areas where there are active infections/cystic acne. I would focus onn areas where the skin is healthy, but sweating excessively.

Hyperhidrosis treatment with Botox
Botox injections are excellent for areas of hyperhidrosis on the face and body. I use this extensively with excellent results.
