Can Botox be used for hyperhidrosis in the neck (front and back) plus the head or scalp? My hairline area is also sweaty

May 20, 2016
Asked By:Sundus.89 in Bangalore, IN

I'm a 27 years old female and I'm healthy but I sweat a lot even at sleep around those areas. Mainly I sweat a lot around those areas but I also have sweaty hands and it is so frustrating. Plus hyperhidrosis runs in my family. 2 uncles 2 brothers and 2 cousins and 1 of my cousins kids who started to have it since birth and she's only 4 years old now.
