During treatment, very low doses of Botox® are administered via a few tiny injections directly into the muscles resonsible for frown lines. By blocking the release of a chemical that causes these muscles to contract, Botox® enables them to relax. The effects are very localized and, when administered by an experienced practitioner, do not affect your ability to smile, laugh, or otherwise show expression. Botox lasts at least 3-4 months in the face.

Can Botox® treatment help severe underarm sweating?
Botox® is FDA approved for sever underarm sweating when topical agents don’t work. Botox® treatment helps control this condition by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive chemical signals, the severe sweating stops.

If you’ve been trying to hide your severe underarm sweating with paper towels, shoulder pads or bra inserts and antiperspirants just do not work, Botox® treatment may be right for you.
