What Is Hyperhidrosis Neurotoxin?

Neurotoxin injections gently silence the nerves that trigger sweat production in the underarms, hands, feet, scalp, or face. Most patients see sweating drop by 75 % or more within a week, with dryness lasting 4–6 months before an easy touch-up.

 

The treatment is FDA-cleared for axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis and widely used off-label for other sites.

Ideal for: adults whose excessive sweating resists clinical-strength antiperspirants or oral meds and who want a fast, nonsurgical fix.

FAQs

How soon will I feel dry?
Onset varies by neurotoxin—some start in 3–4 days, others in 7–10 days; full smoothing appears by week 2.
How long do the results last?
Onset varies by neurotoxin brand—most patients notice major sweat reduction in 3–7 days, with full effect by week 2.
How long do the results last?
Dryness typically holds for 4–6 months; repeat sessions can extend relief even longer with no loss of effectiveness.
Is the procedure painful?
Underarm injections feel like quick pinpricks. Palms and soles are more sensitive, so we offer nerve blocks or cooling to keep you comfortable.
Will I sweat more elsewhere?
Compensatory sweating is uncommon because the treatment only targets glands in the injected area.
What side effects should I expect?
Mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness can occur and fade within days. Hand injections may cause temporary grip weakness that resolves as the medication wears off.
What are alternatives to neurotoxin for excessive sweating?
Options include clinical-strength antiperspirant wipes, oral anticholinergic tablets, microwave energy treatments (such as miraDry®), iontophoresis for hands and feet, and endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) surgery for severe cases.
How much does a hyperhidrosis neurotoxin treatment cost?
Pricing depends on the area and units required; many insurance plans cover medically necessary cases, and flexible financing is available.
