I got botox on my T zone 6 days ago due to cosmetic reasons and excessive sweating. I feel that it's working on the cosmetic side, however, didn't stop sweating at all. My face still sweats a lot like it did before. So, my questions are: 1- How long should I wait till it stops my excessive sweating? 2- What should I expect? Like, no sweating at all or just less sweating? Thanks a lot!
