Do superficial Botox injections help decrease oil production on the face?
Answer: Probably not, but topical Botox may be worth looking into Don't get botox injections with the hope of decreasing oil production. There are some new research into topical botox that may cause some decrease in oil production and be safer but doesn't work on the wrinkles as good if at all as injectible botox does. Be patient since topical botox will be on the market before you know it and may be worth a try.

Answer: Botox and sweat glands It may decrease sweat production and in turn decrease the movement of oils across the skin that happens with the sweat that is excreted through the sweat glands. I am not aware that Botox decreases the oil production, as the sebaceous glands are not under the same nerve pathway controls as sweat glands.

He uses many dilute injections of Botox all over the face to treat wrinkles, lines and even Acne. Just like Botox reducing sweating under the armpits, it has been found to reduce production of the skin glands that cause acne. You can find information on his website, just Google Dr. Wu.

It is commonly used to stop sweating in the armpits and also on the forehead and under the breast area.
