Underarm BOTOX®
Information on Curbing Excessive Sweating in the Armpits with Injectable Neurotoxins in the New Jersey Area
Sweat is a perfectly normal function that helps our body to regulate its temperature, but sometimes, if too much sweating occurs, the excess perspiration could be a sign of a medical condition. People seeking underarm BOTOX® in the New Jersey area should know that South Jersey Skin Care & Laser Center does not offer this treatment, but does provide information on the FDA-approved approach to addressing abnormal or excessive sweating in the armpits related to a condition called hyperhidrosis. This disorder causes people to sweat randomly, even when they’re at rest or in cool temperatures. The sweating may sometimes be so bad that it interferes with quality of life, causing soaked-through clothes, social anxiety, and self-consciousness.
Some patients decide to use botulinum toxin-based BOTOX® to stop sweating. Though not currently provided by our South Jersey Skin Care & Laser Center team, underarm BOTOX®—which patients sometimes refer to as “armpit BOTOX®”—and other types of BOTOX® for sweating treatments are known to be a highly effective approach for managing excessive perspiration linked to hyperhidrosis. Note that we do offer miraDry® as a lasting solution to underarm sweat and odor.

BOTOX® for Excessive Sweating: How Does Underarm BOTOX® Work?
BOTOX® is prepared from a protein produced by a bacterium. It contains substances that impact the function of the nervous system. Essentially, underarm BOTOX® blocks the messenger that tells sweat glands to activate in certain areas. Underarm BOTOX® is only temporary, with effects that last for three to four months on average, so ongoing injections are needed to preserve its effects.
If you’re thinking about trying BOTOX® for armpit sweat, it’s a good idea to search “underarms BOTOX® cost” or “armpit BOTOX® cost” to get a better idea of what the pricing will be like in your area.

Hyperhidrosis Treatment with BOTOX®: Which Other Types of Excessive Sweating Can BOTOX® Reduce?
Aside from underarm BOTOX®, there are other uses of BOTOX® for excessive sweating treatments. BOTOX® for hyperhidrosis can also be used “off-label” on other areas on the body, such as the palms, face, back, chest, under the breasts, and on the soles of the feet. BOTOX® for hyperhidrosis on the hands or BOTOX® for palmar hyperhidrosis can sometimes be more painful and less effective than underarm BOTOX®.
