Craniofacial sweating (excessive sweating from the scalp and face) may be effectively treated with sweat stopping botulinum injections, where the scalp and forehead can be injected and lead to a very significant reduction in sweating lasting 3-4 months.
Oral anticholinergic medications may also improve craniofacial hyperhidrosis, however can be limited by side effects or their inappropriateness for long term use.
Please note this is for your general information only – Perth Dermatology Clinic only provide consultation and treatment for axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis.
