On this page, our focus is on treatments that are specifically designed to fight excessive sweating of the face and scalp. If you experience hyperhidrosis in other parts of the body (such as under your arms), please visit our main Hyperhydrosis Treatment page.
"There are many reasons that someone might experience craniofacial hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating of the scalp. For those experiencing it it can be a very hard thing to deal with, that's why at Dr Leah Clinics we've created a treatment plan for excessive scalp or forehead sweating. By carefully placing muscle-relaxing injections in the correct places for the treatment area we can reduce, and even stop excessive scalp sweating."

How does craniofacial hyperhidrosis treatment stop excessive sweating?
Anti-wrinkle injections treatment for hyperhidrosis effectively targets excessive sweating by blocking the nerve signals that activate sweat glands. This condition, known as hyperhidrosis, causes uncontrollable perspiration in specific areas of the body, such as the armpits, palms, or feet.
By injecting anti-wrinkle injections into these areas, the nerve signals responsible for sweating are disrupted, preventing the glands from becoming active. The treatment is safe and generally well-tolerated, with minor potential side effects. Within just a few days after the procedure, patients can experience a significant reduction in sweating.
