I've heard these products are nearly the same, so I'm curious if Xeomin will help with sweating also, or if that is only something Botox can do?

All three botulinum toxin products can be used to treat hyperhidrosis.

Excessive sweating is estimated to affect 2-3% of the population. Clinicians have now successful used BOTOX, Xeomin, and Dysport to treated hyperhidrosis. So the answer is yes Xeomin will help with hyperhidrosis

Yes Xeomin can be used for Hyperhidrosis

Yes, injecting Xeomin to the areas with excessive sweating will work the same way as Botox. Both Xeomin and Botox are botulinium toxins and act by temporally blocking neurotransmitters that stimulate sweat production.

Xeomin for treatment of hyperhidrosis

Hello and thank you for the question. Xeomin is a neuromodulator with similar efficacy to that of Dysport and Botox. All three products are effective for the management of hyperhidrosis. Best of luck, Glenn Vallecillos, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Xeomin and Botox for hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating

Xeomin functions similar to Botox injections for hyperhidrosis, but is currently not FDA approved for that use. Clinical evidence supports its use for hyperhidrosis in the armpits. Botox Medical works well for this problem and I use it in my practice in Los Angeles.
