What Botox for Excessive Sweating Is

Botox for excessive sweating is a non-surgical injection treatment that reduces unwanted sweat by blocking nerve signals to sweat glands in the targeted area. It’s commonly used on areas where sweating is excessive and bothersome.

How It Works

• Injection into the skin: Tiny amounts of Botox are injected into the area where sweating is a problem.
• Nerve signal interruption: Botox blocks the chemical signal from nerves that tells sweat glands to produce sweat.
• Temporary reduction: The treatment doesn’t stop sweating permanently but significantly reduces it for a period.

Common Treatment Areas

✔ Underarms (axillae) — most common
✔ Hands (palms)
✔ Feet (soles)
✔ Other localized areas where excessive sweating occurs

What to Expect

 Consultation

Before treatment, you should get a consultation where:

• Your sweating pattern and affected areas are assessed
• The injector explains how many injections and units may be used
• Expected results and duration are discussed
• You can ask questions about benefits and limitations

 The Procedure

• Quick: Often about 10–30 minutes depending on area
• Comfortable: May feel like small pinpricks
• Minimal downtime: Most people resume normal activity right after

 Results & Duration

• Start to notice results: Within a few days
• Full effect: Usually within about 1–2 weeks
• How long it lasts: Typically around 4–6 months
  After that, sweating gradually returns and repeat sessions can be scheduled as needed.

Benefits

✔ Significant reduction of sweat in treated areas
✔ Quick and minimally invasive
✔ No major downtime or recovery period

Who It’s Best For

This treatment is ideal if you:

• Experience excessive sweating that affects daily life
• Have tried antiperspirants or topical solutions without success
• Want a non-surgical option with lasting relief

It’s not intended to eliminate sweating everywhere — just targeted areas where sweating is excessive.
