After the cosmetic use of Botox, another popular treatment is Botox for sweating.  This works because sweat is pushed out of sweat glands by small muscles.  Botox for excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is an FDA-approved indication.  We most commonly use it in the armpits, but Botox can also be used for sweating in the palms or soles. Many patients wonder if Botox for sweating is covered by insurance.  It commonly is.  We determine that after you have a consultation with Dr. Strachan.
