I use Botox for hyperhidrosis of the face. If treated appropriately, the Botox will have dual action and can also improve the wrinkles. It is a wonderful treatment that I regularly perform in my Los Angeles plastic surgery practice. Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian
In the face, I would recommend starting with 1 unit for square cm. If that is not effective enough, we can add another unit per square cm.
I would recommend 1 to 2 units of Botox spaced evenly about a centimeter apart on the areas that you feel are sweating. On the nose, therefore, I would choose approximately 10 units of Botox to stop sweating on the nose. On the four head, approximately 10 units along the hairline. Ultimately you will need to see how you respond to this dosing. Additional units may be needed or if you continue to sweat or if you find that the duration of relief is short.
When injected correctly, botox can be used to treat wrinkles and excessive sweating in the face. I would reccommed consulting an injector to get their advice in person.
rather than injections deeper into the muscles, botox is placed high in the skin when used for excessive sweating...while most ofter facial hyperhidrosis originates from just behind the frontal hairline, it can arise anywhere...and the treatment must be targeted to the exact site...and yes even the nose can be treated...interestingly when placed high in the skin, botox seems to have little if any effect on muscle movement and wrinkles...of course there's always a wee bit of spread so you may be doubly pleased...depending on size, the nose might need between 6-12 units
Botox is injected in the face (maxillary areas, lips) and neck as well as hairline and scalp/neck for hyperidrosis and works vey well ! You need an experienced provider as this is a different placement of Botox than for wrinkles !
Botox can be used safely and effectively on the face, although many times the excessive sweating stems from the scalp. That said, sometimes areas of the face can have excess sweating, and carefully dosed and administered Botox can be safely performed by your dermatologist.
You most likely have scalp hyperhidrosis. Botox is not approved and I would not recommend for facial injection to reduce sweating. You will likely develop functional problems from weakening of facial muscles. You should consult with a dermatologist or even a neurologist to rule out more significant underlying medical problems.
I wonder from your text, if the photograph was taken using a mirror because the raised nostril seems to be longer on the right which is opposite from what you stated. Regardless, Botox injected below the nostril might weaken the depressor septi nasi muscle which can help lift the nostril IF the...
The mechanism of Botox's blocking the transmission of nerve to muscle signaling should not be affected by colon cleansing. Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter and it is blocked at the nerve muscle junction by Botox which is a competitive inhibitor. It acts as if it were a closed gate...
Thank you for your question Suzanne1980. I understand your concern. Botox is a purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. When injected into the skin Botox will relax the muscles and smoothen out the overlying wrinkles. The most common areas of treatment are in ...
