Botox Treatment for Hyperhidrosis BOTOX® to treat hyperhidrosis has become a popular alternative to the use of Drysol and more invasive surgical procedures. BotoxT is an extract of botulinum toxin and when injected into areas of the skin that produce excess sweat, effectively reduces sweat production for many months.
The use of Botox for Palmar hyperhidrosis (sweating of the palms) is not recommended at this time. BOTOX® has been granted FDA approval for use on "crow's feet," between brows, forehead, and upper lip area and is considered "off-label" use for hyperhidrosis. This essential means that it is the doctors discretion on safe and effective uses.
The cost of this procedure varies. It is recommended that every patient receive a free Botox consultation before scheduling the procedure.
