Yes. You can have underarm Botox treatment for excessive sweating as long as you are otherwise a good candidate for the procedure.

Thank you for your question. Botox can be a very effective treatment for underarm sweating. You would need to have parental consent to try this treatment. I would recommend going to visit a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist with your parents to discuss this further. You may want to also consider miraDry which would provide you a much longer lasting result.
I would suggest you and a parent/guardian, seek consultation with a plastic surgeon to evaluate your concerns. Botox is an effective treatment for hyperhydrosis.Good luck.
Yes, with the consent from a legal guardian an adolescent can receive Botox for excessive sweating. Discuss your options with a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. Best,
Botox can actually give excellent results when used to treat excessive sweating of the underarms, palms, and soles of the feet. I have seen results last anywhere from 6 months to 1 year! For 15 year olds, parental consent is required for the procedure, but it is otherwise safe. Hope this helps!

As others have indicated, because you are underage you would need to have a parent with you to listen to the consultation and offer consent on your behalf. Botox injections usually result in dry underarms for 6 months and are relatively painless if topical anesthetic cream is applied before the procedure.
Thank you for your question. Although compensatory hyperhidrosis with Botox is very uncommon, it can happen. I would recommend visiting with your physician injector and review what total dosing you received and when the compensatory sweating in the groin occurred. This may...
It takes 3-5 days to see the effect, 14 days to get the full effect of botox. Whether or not you will get a 100% resolution of your swelling is impossible to predict. Most people don't get 100% improvement but enough to make the treatment worth it. For some patients the...
Botox works very well for hyperhidrosis providing relief from underarm sweating for up to 6 months. However, you should be cleared by your cardiologist before receiving Botox. The Plavix and aspirin will make you bruise more. Please find a board certified dermatologist with...
