Empleo terapéutico de la toxina botulínica

Botulogenic toxin infiltration for the treatment of idiopathic local hyperhidrosis is a safe and well tolerated procedure, with minimum side effects and with an effectiveness demonstrated throughout the years, especially in axillary hyperhidrosis; in the majority of patients with this condition is an effective alternative to surgery. In other locations, the results are more modest and the clinical experience more limited, which forces us to advise the surgery as alternative with an incidence far from desirable.
