Botox for Hyperhidrosis

Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA) is FDA-approved for underarm hyperhidrosis and widely used off-label for scalp and face. By blocking the nerve signals that activate sweat glands, Botox can significantly reduce sweating and provide relief when antiperspirants or topical medications are not enough.
