Can Botox Cure Excessive Armpit Sweating?
A non-surgical treatment that is being promoted to serve as a treatment of axillary Hyperhidrosis or to stop excessive armpit sweating. Doctors use an injection of botulism toxin or Botox. But can botox stop excessive armpit sweating?
Botox in its concentrated form is one of the most deadly nerve poisons known to man. However, doctors have developed a concentration that is so small that it can be used safely to treat excessive sweating.
The way Botox works is by injecting it into the nerves that trigger sweat. It temporarily paralyzes these nerves responsible for triggering the neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is responsible for activating the sweat glands.

- Expensive (around $400.00 per treatment)
- Will only work for the small areas of skin around the injection site
- Treatment must be repeated as effectiveness is temporary – Typically a Botox injection treatment lasts from as short as just over 3 months to as long as 10 months
