Botox Didn't Work For Underarm Sweating?

It appears that while your treatment did work, it didn't last very long. Please talk to your injector about increasing the number of units administered. Best of luck.

It would be very helpful to know how many units were applied. The recommended dosage for hyperhidrosis is usually 50 units on each underarm, a total of 100 units for full correction. It may be you need more units applied or need a touch up, let your medical provider know about the situation, i'm sure they will be more then happy to see you for a follow up.

I find that Botox is a great answer to axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating). It would be interesting to know how many units were injected to each underarm. Every individual is different in their need, but it could be that you needed more. Usually it takes anywhere from 2.5-4 months for botox to be metabolized through the body. Best of luck!

The average number of units of Botox to treat excessive underarm sweating is 50 Units per underarm. That being said, some people may require more and some may require less. Sometime's it takes more than one treatment session to figure out what the right dosing is for you. The effects of Botox usually last 3-4 months, but for some people it may last less. You may either require an increased dose or a shorter interval between your treatments. This is best discussed with your doctor. Good luck to you!

Since you say you did notice an effect for a few weeks after the Botox for underarm sweating, I would look at the dosage that was used to treat you.  It is possible that enough was not used to give you a longer lasting result.
