Botox For Excessive Sweating

How it Works

Excessive sweating? Botox to the axilla (underarms) is an FDA-approved treatment that helps to control the symptoms of severe underarm sweating. It is for people who continue to have bothersome excessive sweating and have failed other treatments. Botox is injected into the skin and works by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate sweat glands.
