Abstract:
Neurological dysfunction and genetic alterations are important factors to hyperhidrosis. In recent years, numerous clinical trials have confirmed the effectiveness and safety of botulinum toxin type A as both a neurotoxin and cytotoxin in the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis. This article describes the pathogenesis of hyperhidrosis, the therapeutic applications and mechanistic advances of botulinum toxin type A for axillary hyperhidrosis, aiming to provide insights for future basic research and clinical practice.
