Hi! Getting botox injections in your forehead will stop you from sweating excessively. As long as the botox is strategically and correctly placed, it will not change the natural look of your face. The best thing to do is to speak with a provider about your goals so you can come up with the best solution.

Hello, Botox can help you a lot to treat sweating, in terms of facial expressions they can change, but the final result depends on the person who applies it, in any case the effect lasts between 4 and 6 months.

Yes botox can make you much more comfortable! An experienced injector should know how to inject this area without making changes to your forehead lines.

I have treated many patients with excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) of the upper forehead/hairline. You might try first aluminum chloride at night (e.g. Drysol). Another option is a pill like robinul or ditropan. Otherwise, for precise results and safety, botox injections lasting 3-6 months in the hairline are a great option from your dermatologist.

Kurt Kuhlman, DO · Answer

A small amount of Botox in the area of sweating may be helpful and is safe and not very expensive. Oral medication such as Robinal or Ditropan may aslo help.
