I have a terrible sweaty nose. I have heard you can get Botox for underarm sweat glands. Would it work on the nose?

Thank you for your question, Hyperhydrosis can be treated with Botox, however it important to see a Board Certified Dermatologist who experienced in treating this condition because the same approach that is used to treat wrinkles and lines is not the same approached used to treat Hyperhydrosis. I hope this was helpful. Best, Dr. Emer

Yes, microbotox injections can help decrease sweating and oil production including on the nose. However, this requires advanced injection technique so make sure you are under the care of an experienced physician injector. Best wishes.

Botox can prevent sweat glands from making sweat, so whether that gland is on your nose or in your armpit, hands or feet, it really doesn't matter. Botox can make your nose sweat less.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Quintessa Aesthetic Centers

Thank you for your question. Botox can be used for decreasing sweat on the nose but should be diluted and used in micro-injections. Choose an experience physician injector because this technique is considered advanced.  Best regards, Dr. Bector  

Hello kimbo986:Yes, Botox can be injected superficially in the nose, in a verydikute concentration and small number of units, to reduce sweaty. You will need to see an advanced injector who is a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon, however, as you do would not want to reduce the function of the muscles of the nose.Dr, Clark 

Hi,Botox can certainly decrease sweating in any area it is injected. The one caveat is that it will need to be more dilute. It is safe and results last about 6 months.Best,
