No, botox isn’t just for cosmetic reasons – it can help reduce drooling, too. For individuals seeking a more aggressive approach to managing hypersalivation, Botox injections can be considered. Injecting Botox into the saliva glands surrounding the mouth can temporarily reduce saliva production. It is important to note, however, that this treatment is not permanent and will need to be repeated. It is also critically important that you consult a licensed professional, as having this done by someone who doesn’t have the right knowledge and qualifications can be detrimental to your health and wellbeing.
6. Surgery as a Last Resort

In severe cases where other treatments have been unsuccessful, a doctor may recommend surgical removal of the saliva glands. This option is typically reserved for individuals with underlying neurological conditions that contribute to excessive drooling during sleep. They typically won’t do this for those who simply are drooling while sleeping and want it to stop. Surgery can be an effective solution for managing hypersalivation, but it is usually considered as a last resort after trying other treatments.
