Hyperhidrosis Relief (Botox for Excessive Sweating)
Body Treatments
Botox injections can effectively treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) by blocking the chemical messenger that stimulates sweat production. During the 10‐minute appointment, a series of shallow injections is placed into the affected area (often underarms). Most people begin to notice reduced sweating within 2-4 days, with full dryness by two weeks. Results last 4-12 months or longer.
