Excessive Underarm Sweating

Botox Underarm Treatment

BOTOX® neurotoxin treatment helps control excessive underarm sweating by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive chemical signals, the excessive sweating stops.

BOTOX® ADVANTAGE—for Severe Underarm Sweating
Also consider treatment for severe primary underarm sweating that is inadequately managed with topical anti-perspirants.

Can BOTOX® treatment help?
BOTOX® is FDA-approved for severe underarm sweating when topical agents don’t work. BOTOX® treatment helps control this condition.
 
How effective is BOTOX® treatment?
BOTOX® treatment is very effective. 
84 out of 104 BOTOX® treated patients (81%) achieved a greater than 50% reduction in sweating.

What should I expect after I have received a BOTOX® treatment?
You should notice a significant reduction in underarm sweating within four weeks of your first treatment. 
 
How long does a BOTOX® treatment last?
The median duration of response in BOTOX® patients was 201 days or 6.7 months. Your healthcare provider will recommend a treatment strategy to ensure that you receive the best possible results with BOTOX® treatment.
 
How can I find out if my insurance covers BOTOX® treatment?
The BOTOX® ADVANTAGE program works with a growing number of insurance carriers and healthcare providers to facilitate the reimbursement process.
