Botox Cost for Palmar Hyperhidrosis

Question

I am wondering how much Botox costs to treat palmar hyperhidrosis. I believe most doctors inject a total of 1 vial between the two hands and that a vial costs a physician around $500. Yet, it seems prices are quoted significantly higher than this. Are doctors adding their own markup? Also are there any insurance companies that will cover the cost of Botox for palmar hyperhidrosis?

Botox or Dysport for Palmer Hyperhidrosis costs about $1500-2000 and lasts about 6-12 months on an average.  For patients suffering from this condition, these shots have been a god-send.

The cost of Botox for hyperhidrosis depends on the amount needed to treat the area.  The amount needed depends on the surface area and the severity of the hyperhidrosis. Costs vary by the amount injected and the price per unit of Botox. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Using botox for palmar hyperhidrosis is an effective way to decrease sweating.  The botox prevents the nerves from telling the sweat glands to secrete sweat.  Each palm will need 50 to 100 units depending on the size.  The cost depends on the cost per unit in each office.  Botox ranges from 10-15 dollars per unit in my area.

Lawrence Kass, MD · Answer

I agree that you would most likely require a whole vial of Botox or 100 units.  The cost should range from $800 to $1500.  It is costly, but is very beneficial and the patients I have treated have been very happy.

Let me get this straight: So if a doctor pays $500 for a vial, you want the doctor to charge you $500 and do it for absolutely no mark up? By the way, it costs more than that
