Botox and Xeomin are effective treatments for excessive sweating
Hyperhidrosis is a relatively common condition characterized by excessive sweating. It might affect your underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis) , or palms and feet (palmoplantar hyperhidrosis). The use of neuromodulator BOTOX/XEOMIN for the treatment of hyperhidrosis can be most effective when performed by a trained clinician. Injections can be administered in a doctor's office, require relatively little time and do not demand any restrictions in work or leisure activity (aside from refraining from intensive exercise on the day of the injections).
Botox/Xeomin injection can be given to the underarms, palms and feet. During the procedure, a very fine needle is used to inject tiny amounts of Botox just under the skin intermittently throughout the area of excessive sweating. Multiple injections are given based on your care provider's assessment of the area that needs to be treated. To ease any potential discomfort, clinicians may use one or more of a number of anesthetic techniques such as nerve blocks, ice, vibration or topical analgesia. ​
Botulinum toxin injections do not cure hyperhidrosis; your symptoms will go away gradually (usually in about a week) and return gradually. Follow-up injections are required to maintain dryness. These repeat injections may be necessary at intervals varying from 7 to 16 months.​
The cost of Botox treatments for hyperhidrosis will vary depending upon the size of the body area you need to be treated and whether insurance will cover any of the cost for you. A general estimate of the cost for two underarms is about 100 units.
