    What Is Hyperhidrosis?

    Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating that goes beyond normal temperature regulation.

    It affects:

    • underarms
    • palms
    • feet
    • scalp
    • face
    • groin

    For many patients, sweating happens even when they are not hot, exercising, or stressed. This interferes with clothing choices, handshakes, work, dating, and daily confidence.

    How Does Botox Stop Excessive Sweating?

    Botox works by blocking the nerve signals that activate sweat glands.

    When injected into the treatment area, Botox reduces sweat gland activity and excessive sweating.

    What Areas Can Be Treated?

    Botox is FDA-approved for treating hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating in the following areas:

    • Underarms (Axillary Hyperhidrosis) — reduce sweat stains, odor, and constant antiperspirant use
    • Palms (Palmar Hyperhidrosis) — helps patients who struggle with handshakes, wet palms, and social discomfort
    • Soles of the Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis) — reduce odor and foot discomfort
    • Face and Scalp — decrease excessive sweating in visible areas thaaffect makeup, hair, and confidence

    How Effective Is Botox for Excessive Sweating?

    Patients typically experience approximately 80–90% reduction in sweating after treatment.

    Results vary depending on:

    • treatment area
    • severity of sweating
    • dose used
    • metabolism

    Why Choose Dr. Schwarzburg for Hyperhidrosis Botox in NYC?

    Dr. Schwarzburg has over 10 years of experience with advanced Botox treatments.

    Effective treatment requires:

    • correct mapping of the sweat pattern
    • precise injection depth
    • proper unit distribution

    Botox for excessive sweating is more technically demanding than cosmetic Botox, requiring precise mapping, injection depth, and dosing for consistent, effective sweat reduction.

    What Happens During Treatment?

    • Consultation: Dr. Schwarzburg evaluates the treatment area and sweating severity
    • Mapping: The sweating pattern is marked for even treatment
    • Injection: Botox is placed with small, precise injections
    • Time: Most treatments take 20–30 minutes

    You return to normal daily activity right away.

    Recovery and Downtime

    Downtime is minimal. Avoid intense exercise, saunas, and heavy sweating for 48 hours after treatment.

    How Soon Does Botox Start Working?

    Most patients begin noticing improvement within 3–7 days. Full results usually develop around 2 weeks after treatment.

    How Long Does It Last?

    Results typically last 4–6 months, depending on the treatment area and individual response.

    Underarm Botox often lasts longer than cosmetic Botox. Some patients repeat treatment once or twice per year to maintain dryness.

    How Many Units Are Needed?

    Unit requirements vary by area, with typical ranges as follows:

    • Underarms: about 50 units per side
    • Palms: about 40 units
    • Feet: around 50-60 units
    • Scalp/face: customized based on location

    Dr. Schwarzburg determines dosing during consultation based on your sweating pattern and treatment goals.

    Cost of Botox for Hyperhidrosis in NYC

    Cost depends on the treatment area and number of units required.

    • have not responded well to antiperspirants or other treatments
    • sweat excessively even when not hot or exercising
    • frequently stain clothing from sweating
    • feel self-conscious about sweaty palms or underarms
