I'm a sweaty female in general, I'm always warm/hot. Runs in the family. if I get botox and I'm not sweating under my arms.. Wouldn't the sweat need to come out through some other area to compensate? For an example, in the summer I'll sweat under my chest ... So will I sweat more there after underarm botox treatment?

Answer: Botox Works Well For Underarm Hyperhidrosis (Excess Sweating) I have been injecting Botox for axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis for two decades with gratifying results. While there is a theoretical possibility of what is called compensatory hyperhidrosis, I have not personally seen this. What can be expected is a significant reduction in armpit sweating, which, particularly when accompanied by the use of clinical strength deodorants, provides significant relief from this very troublesome and embarassing problem. It is important to consult with a board certified dermatologist with experience and expertise in this nonaesthetic, advanced use of Botox. Best of luck.

Answer: Botox/Xeomin/Dysport for Hyperhidrosis--Excessive Sweating No, it won't cause you to sweat more in other areas. Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating can be controlled with Botox or glycopyrrolate. Multiple areas may require nervous system surgical treatment. Treatment will last 3-6 months. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
