Will Botox Above my Upper Lip Stop It from Excessive Sweating?

Botox is FDA approved for treating severe underarm sweating (severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis).  Using it to treat sweating in areas other than under the arms would be an off label use and I would advise against this.  In general, Botox is used to improve the appearance of the following areas:

 

1) Crow's feet
2) Glabella (the "11" between the brows)
3) Forehead wrinkles
4) Smoker's lines

In addition to treating cosmetic issues, other approved uses of Botox include but are not limited to:

 

1) Migraines
2) Upper limb spasticity
3) Cervical dystonia
4) Strabismus (lack of eye muscle coordination)
5) Incontinence
6)  Teeth grinding
7)  Shrink enlarged masseters

Botox paralyzes the muscles in a given area, causing wrinkles to disappear. It would not be a good idea to do this around your mouth, as it may lead to muscle control issues in that area. Thanks and I hope this helps.

Yes, it will. Having botox injected on that area will help prevent excessive sweating. You can ask or consult a trusted practitioner in your area to know more about this procedure.
