Botox for Hyperhidrosis
What Is It For?
Botox can be used to treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). Injecting into the underarm eccrine glands (sweat glands) helps to reduce or eliminate excessive underarm sweating caused by the medical condition axillary hyperhidrosis. It takes 2 weeks for the Botox to fully block the receptors in the sweat glands. Results last around 3-4 months, you can always return to our men’s medspa in NYC to receive another round of treatment when you feel like it has worn off.

Our Approach
Patient’s looking for an easy solution to drastically reduce underarm sweating are great candidates for underarm Botox.

The injection time for each underarm area is very quick, so patients do not need to worry about much discomfort.
