Underarm Botox is a non-surgical injectable treatment designed to reduce excessive sweating by targeting overactive sweat glands. By blocking nerve signals responsible for perspiration, this treatment helps keep underarm areas drier and more comfortable in daily life.

What Is Underarm Botox?

Underarm Botox involves injecting botulinum toxin into the skin of the underarm area to temporarily inhibit sweat gland activity. It is commonly used for treating axillary hyperhidrosis and does not affect muscle movement.
