Having overly sweaty armpits can be an embarrassing situation for almost anyone. Even though it’s a natural process, when you notice visible stains on your clothes that can bring you a lot of unwanted attention, you can be suffering from a condition known as hyperhydrosis. This can be a difficult condition to deal with as it can make you feel insecure and very self-aware in almost any situation.

Hyperhidrosis is a condition signified by armpits that sweat excessively. In this situation, even antiperspirant deodorants don’t help significantly. But don’t let this get to you. There are some excellent effective ways of getting this treated. Botox is one such way. While people essentially associate Botox as an anti-wrinkle treatment, it is very effective solution for hyperhidrosis as well.

Botox: An Effective Treatment

OnabotulinumtoxinA or Botox is a treated and purified natural protein that blocks the secretion of the chemicals responsible for triggering the sweat glands. This therefore stops the sweat glands from producing sweat in the injected area.

It not only works wonders under the armpit, but also works great on other small areas of the body that are prone to producing excess sweat like the hands, head, face, the area under the breasts, and more. Botox can help reduce sweating between 82%-87% in the treated areas.
