How Much Does Botox for Hyperhidrosis of the Underarm Cost?

I treat underarm hyperhydrosis with 100 units of botox. The cost is $1000.50 units is diluted in 3cc of saline per armpit. Topical lidocaine cream is used to anesthetize the armpit prior to treatment. The treatment will last 4 months.I hope this helps.- Dr. Bryson Richards

Usually, 50 units of botox are needed for each armpit. For both armpits, the cost is $1000. Results last 6 months on average. Everyone is different depending on how their body metabolizes the toxin. 

The general amount used is 50 units per side. Because there is so much used at once visit, most doctors will provide a quantity discount - and you can get loyalty points too so the 'real' price can be less. In most areas it is around $1000 but there can be pre-summer promotions that make it even less. Look around, but look for a practice that has some decent dermatological background.Alegan has a site dedicated to this - it's named Botox for Severe Sweating and you can take a self assessment test. No all heavy sweaters have hyperhidrosis, so it's good to know the difference.

Normally, about 100 units are used between both underarms and the cost is around $1000. This can vary depending on how much product is needed to treat the area. It is always best to have a consultation to determine if you are a good candidate and go over the procedure in more detail to get a more accurate estimate of cost.

Botox works very well to decrease profuse underarm sweating.  Studies have shown that the effect lasts between 6 and 7 months.  Generally, 50 units of Botox is injected per axilla.  The average cost for Botox is $10 to $14 per unit.  Sometimes insurance companies will pay for the treatment if you can prove that other measures have failed.  Discuss with a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist.Trey Aquadro, M.D.Auburn, AL

Generally, 100 units of Botox is used to stop sweating under both underarms, and this will cost about $1000. Some people can use about half that amount and still get significant improvement.

Botox is highly effective helping excessive sweating for underarm, most patient require 50 units per axilla to see full result and should last 3-6 months, Cost of Botox varies from each practice/physician and also the region you live in, typically the cost of Botox is $10-$16 per unit. 

I tend to use a more dilute version of botox for underram therapy and found it to be equally effective as a more concentrated version.  Its main benefit is it is more cost effective and theoretically diffuses further along.  I prefer 50-100 units of botox per treatment and its cost ranges from $500- 1000 depending on the number of units used.  Treatments are expected to last between 3-6 months.

I normally start with a dosage of 50 units of Botox for hyperhidrosis of the armpits.  This can provide anywhere from 3-6 months of relief from sweating.  I charge $500-600 per side so a treatment can cost between $1000-$1200 per treatment.  Often higher doses can result in longer lasting symptom relief. 

A great alternative to Botox is miraDry.  It costs $3000 for the procedure (includes two treatments) and can as effective as Botox and after two treatments, no further intervention is needed.  

Botox is one option for hyperhidrosis of the armpits.  A more cost effective solution is Miradry, a longlasting non-neurotoxin option that uses heat energy to eliminate unwanted and abnormal sweat glands in the armpits. Raffy Karamanoukian, Los Angeles
