Frequently asked questions

Underwarm sweating botox is usually permanent for a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 8 months. Patients start to see the results of the treatment in an average of 5 days, after a week at the latest.

No it is not, it is an FDA approved safe treatment. Botulinum toxin therapy is great for reducing sweaty underarms by stopping the sweat glands in the skin from working. It also keeps the skin looking normal and doesn’t make you look sweaty. The procedure is usually done in a clinic setting under aseptic conditions. You won’t need any downtime, so you can get on with your day straight after.

ETS surgery is a permanent in most cases; stops palmar sweating byy severing sympathetic nerves. Despite that, 50 to 80% of patients develop compensatory sweating elsewhere. If you’re looking for semi-permanent options, you can give a chance to iontophoresis. But if you would like to try temporary solutions, botox, antiperspirants, and oral anticholinergics can control sweating, too.

Surgeons have not yet found a permanent solution for focal hyperhidrosis. However, we can largely control generalized hyperhidrosis with surgical or non-surgical sweating treatments.
