Botox® for Hyperhidrosis
What is
Botox® for hyperhidrosis?
Like Botox® Cosmetic, Botox® for hyperhidrosis works by temporarily blocking certain nerve signals in the treated area. When injected into the underarms, it can reduce sweating from the sweat glands for a period of time. Results are temporary and vary from person to person.
The injection portion of the appointment is typically brief, and many patients find it quick and well-tolerated; anesthetic is not always required. You may notice improvement gradually, with the full effect commonly seen 7–14 days after treatment.
