Botox ® can also be used in the armpits to stop excessive sweating, otherwise known as hyperhidrosis.

This is often effective for around six months, however most people tend to get longer. The treatment involves injecting small amounts of toxin under the armpits to block the nerves that control sweating under the arms. Sweating can be very embarrassing and often affects peoples social and work life. This 20 minute treatment can restore a person’s confidence and be done in their lunchtime. The injections feel like no more than a small sting, usual being relatively painless.
