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

Thank you for your question. Botox is an excellent product to use for treatment of hyperhidrosis. Speak with an expert injector to have the areas of concern addressed. Best, 

Yes I botox my neck for sweating and for muscle spasm and it does very well. I suggest you see an expert for treatment options.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Botox can be used in any areas of excessive sweating and the results for this procedure are excellent. Make sure you find an experienced injector for optimal results. Best wishes.

Small doses of Botox can be injected in all those areas to effectively decrease sweating, and the bonus is less wrinkly skin. What may be even more helpful (and economical) for sweating in multiple areas is Robinul (also known as glycopyrrolate), which is a pill that helps to decrease sweating throughout the body. Small doses are very well tolerated and safe. Hyperhidrosis in kids is often treated with topical aluminum chloride. It shouldn't be too irritating if applied every few nights.

Botox for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) has been used safely and effectively for many years. The vast majority of treatments are for the armpits (axillae), and less commonly for hands or feet. I've treated many other areas including the neck, face, scalp, groin, back, and more ; there are no issues treating these less common areas as long as your injector is an experienced and highly trained physician such as a dermatologist.

Typically Botox can be used on any part of the skin that exhibits hyperhidrosis such as the underarms, palms, feet, and face.  The scalp, hairline, and neck would be no different.  Some of theses treatments may even be covered by your health insurance company.  I would also speak to your physician about anti-cholinergic medication options such as glycopyrrolate (Robinul) if you experience sweating in multiple areas of the body.

Botox can safely be used in most areas to treat hyperhidrosis because the injections are place just under the skin in and around the seat glands.  Consult with a physician that commonly injects these areas for best results, especially in the hands and around the neck.  

Botox can be used to treat hyperhidrosis (to reduce excessive sweating) of any area.  Since Botox is approved by the FDA for hyperhidrosis only of the underarms (axillae), your insurance company may or may not cover its use for other areas.I hope this answer is helpful. Best wishes.

Botox can be placed into the skin to help with hyperhidrosis in facial areas.It would be safe for this.Topical Botox applications (Revance Therapeutics and Allergan) are in development.Best wishes,Dr. Denkler
