Written By Dr. Josh Jacobson

Botox is well-known for its cosmetic uses, but it’s also effective for treating hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating. Here’s how it works and what to expect.

How Botox Treats Hyperhidrosis

Botox injections block the nerve signals responsible for sweating, reducing perspiration in the treated area.

  • Duration: Results typically last 4-6 months, after which repeat treatments are needed.

  • Areas Treated: Commonly treated areas include the underarms, hands, feet, and face.

Procedure and Recovery

  • Quick Treatment: The procedure is quick, usually taking about 30 minutes.

  • Minimal Downtime: Patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment.
