In the world of beauty, it always seems that there is something new developing in the industry. But what happens if you have a medical issue, such as overactive sweating? This is where medical skin care products come in. Women spend an average of $4,144 per year on beauty products, but this number doesn't include some medical issues that happen via different biological processes. However, this also doesn't mean that you have to suffer, so if you are sweating a lot more than usual, read on for some sweating treatment methods to help you feel dry. Injections Sweating is the body's way of cooling itself off, but sometimes your sweat ducts can dramatically overproduce. In order to combat this, Botox injections can be helpful to temporarily paralyze these muscles so you can feel some relief. It is important to note that Botox cannot cure excessive sweating and only works at the injection site. If this is the route you would like to take, know that you will have to get injections every few months or so. Prescription antiperspirants An antiperspirant is great especially if you suffer from excessive sweating at night as you can apply it then go to bed. These antiperspirants have a higher concentration of aluminum chloride than normal over-the-counter deodorants, so all you need to do is swipe and go. Prescription medication There are a few different prescriptions available you can take to prevent the stimulation of sweat glands. However, due to their side effects, they are not always beneficial for long-term use. Depending on your individual symptoms, your doctor has a few options to choose from when it comes to medication. Surgery This is usually only used as a treatment method if the profuse sweating is out of control and no other methods work. It is a relatively simple procedure, where a doctor will remove the underarm sweat glands permanently.
