FAQ
Hyperhidrosis FAQs
How long does Botox for sweating last?
Results typically last several months, and many people find relief lasts longer for underarms than Botox does for facial lines. Most clients repeat treatment once or twice a year.
Does it hurt?
The injections are quick and placed just under the skin. Most people feel brief pinches. We can use ice or numbing to keep it comfortable.
Will I stop sweating everywhere?
No. Treatment only reduces sweating in the treated area. Your body continues to sweat normally elsewhere to keep you cool.
Can you treat palms or feet?
Yes, you can. At this time SKIN only treats the underarms.
