Excessive Sweating

Question: I have excess sweating in my underarms. I am 27 and work out at the gym regularly. I would really like to do something about this embarrassing problem. Is it possible that Botox can help me?

I read recently that Botox can be used to treat excessive sweating. How effective is it as a treatment, and does your office offer these services?

Using botox can treat sweaty under arms or axillary hyperhidrosis. Approximately 50 units of botox are used under each arm. The technique is very effective and lasts up to 6-9 months. It takes about 15 minutes to perform this procedure at our center with minimal discomfort.
