General information about the treatment procedure for
hyperhidrosis with Botox

How the procedure works

The whole procedure lasts about half an hour.

Before this, a Minor test is performed, which allows you to determine degree of severity and localization of hyperhidrosis, then applied to the skin anesthesia and a drug based on botulinum toxin is administered, which reduces the secretion of sweat glands.

Intradermal injections are carried out ten points in each axillary area.

  • In most cases, the recommended dose ensures that the results last for 8-12 months.
  • The timing for re-injection is determined individually according to clinical need.
  • Injections should not be given more than once every 12 weeks
  • There is evidence of a cumulative effect with repeated doses of the drug, so the duration of treatment is determined individually for each patient

Restrictions after the procedure are minimal.

Effect of the procedure and rehabilitation

How much does sweating decrease after the procedure?

  • The average amount of sweat produced decreased by 88% two weeks after the first injection
  • The effect lasts up to 9 months if procedures are carried out on a regular basis (no more than once every 12 weeks)
  • 99% of patients rated their treatment tolerance as good or excellent four weeks after the first injections
  • When botulinum toxin is reintroduced, the body quickly copes with the effect of the toxin. Therefore, in the future, 3-4 procedures per year will be required to eliminate sweating

2-3 days after the administration of botulinum toxin, you can already notice the effect. In the period 2-3 weeks after injections, the sweat glands will stop produce sweat. To prevent sweating from resuming immediately and to prevent the injection area from becoming inflamed, you should follow the recommendations:

  • Don't sunbathe
  • Do not visit baths and saunas
  • Do not massage in the injection area
  • Do not use cosmetics on your skin (except those prescribed by your doctor)
  • Avoid physical activity for 7 days

The effect of the injection procedure lasts about 6-12 months. When botulinum toxin is reintroduced, the body quickly copes with the effect of the toxin. Therefore, in the future, 3-4 procedures per year will be required to eliminate sweating.

Answers to popular questions

Won't something in the body be disrupted if the armpits stop sweating?

Only 2% of sweat glands are located in the armpits. They practically do not participate in thermoregulation. Sweat glands are located throughout the body, so blocking them in the armpits will not affect the electrolyte-water metabolism and thermoregulation of the body.

How many units of the drug will be needed?

The number of units of the drug depends on the treatment area and the degree of sweating. During the procedure, from 30 to 100 units of Botox are injected into the armpits.

A large dose of botulinum toxin - is it safe?

The maximum dose of botulinum toxin in cosmetology for the treatment of hyperhidrosis is 3 bottles of Botox. Which is an absolutely safe dose for a healthy person.

Which drug is better?

In our cosmetology centers, we offer 3 drugs for the treatment of armpit hyperhidrosis: Dysport, Xeomin, Botox. The choice of toxin depends on the degree of sweating and the area of the procedure. The clinic's specialists will select the most effective remedy for you, based on the individual characteristics of the body.

Is it possible to combine laser hair removal and Botox in the armpits?

There are no contraindications to combining the two procedures. On the contrary, after administering Botox and relaxing the muscles, laser hair removal will be much easier.
