Summary

This study tests if injecting botulinum toxin (like Botox) into the forehead can safely reduce excessive sweating. Thirty adults with moderate-to-severe forehead sweating that hasn't improved with antiperspirants will receive one treatment. Researchers will measure changes in sweating and satisfaction one month later.
