Botulinum toxin for excessive forehead sweating
Treatments studied
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether botulinum toxin injections can reduce excessive sweating on the forehead. If your forehead sweats heavily despite using antiperspirants, this treatment might help you stay dry and more comfortable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether injections of botulinum toxin type A can reduce frequent, severe cluster headache attacks by targeting a facial nerve area. It’s for people whose cluster headaches have not responded well—or have caused side effects—to standard preventive treatments.
This trial studies whether botulinum toxin (Botox) injections can improve hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a painful skin condition with recurring bumps and tunnels. You might be a good match if you have long-lasting HS in more than one body area and can safely do skin-area treatment visits (including skin biopsy if needed).
This trial tests a surgery called bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomy to treat severe, unexplained sweating of the hands and face. It aims to see if the surgery improves quality of life and reduces sweating.
This trial tests an injection called HU-045 to reduce moderate to severe frown lines. It may help adults who want to soften those vertical lines between the eyebrows.
This study tests a new botulinum toxin injection (similar to Botox) to see how well it smooths moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. The treatment is given as a single injection and may help soften those lines for several months.
This trial compares two ways of doing a nerve block (injection near the neck) to treat severe palm sweating. It tests whether adding alcohol to the steroid injection works better than just the steroid alone.
