Botox injections are most commonly used for treating wrinkles, but the FDA has approved Botox for other purposes as well. Doctors are using Botox to treat a variety of medical conditions, such as excess sweating and migraines, which can benefit from temporary nerve or muscle paralysis.
What is Excessive Sweating?
Excessive sweating, or severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis, is an embarrassing condition that causes you to sweat more than normal. According to the Botox website, 1.3 million Americans have hyperhidrosis and overactive sweat glands in their underarms.
Hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating causes a number of problems for those it affects. People may feel embarrassed about their sweating in social situations, may have to change clothes often or only wear certain clothes to hide their sweat. Many of these people will try prescription antiperspirants, but Botox injections may be a better option if these topical treatments fail to stop the problem.
Botox for Excessive Sweating
Botox was approved by the FDA to treat excessive underarm sweating in 2004, two years after Botox Cosmetic was approved to smooth the look of wrinkles. The International Hyperhidrosis Society (IHS) says that Botox is "safe and effective" for treating overactive sweat glands in the underarms, hands or feet. They cite one clinical study that showed 81% of patients receiving Botox injections into their underarms reported a decrease in sweating.
According to the IHS, Botox injections stop excessive sweating by blocking a certain chemical that turns on the sweat glands. However, just like when used for wrinkles, the effects of Botox are only temporary, so you will need continuous injections to achieve permanent relief. The IHS reports that most hyperhidrosis sufferers need to return to the doctor for more botox injections every 7 to 16 months.
Paying for Botox Injections
Botox injections can be expensive, and a single treatment can cost up to $1,000 depending on where you live. For those who suffer from excessive sweating, a continuous regime of Botox injections may be unaffordable.
The IHS maintains that hyperhydrosis is a serious medical condition, and they believe insurance should cover Botox injections for excessive sweating. The IHS provides a number to call if you are trying to get insurance reimbursement for Botox treatment. HIS also suggest volunteering for a clinical study if the cost of Botox is prohibitive.
