Botox for Excessive Sweating in Gangnam, Seoul

Quick answer: Botulinum toxin blocks the nerve signals that switch on sweat glands, so injecting it into the underarms (and sometimes palms or scalp) can sharply reduce excessive sweating for several months. It is a quick in-clinic treatment with no downtime. AMRED Clinic in Cheongdam, Gangnam offers it for hyperhidrosis, often before summer.

Botox for underarm sweating at AMRED Clinic, Gangnam

How it works

Sweat glands are activated by nerve signals. Toxin placed just under the skin interrupts those signals in the treated zone; the glands remain but sweat much less.

Good to know

The body continues to sweat elsewhere to regulate temperature, so overall cooling is not affected. A starch-iodine test can map the most active area.

Quick facts

  • Areas: underarms most common; palms, scalp possible
  • Onset: within about a week
  • Duration: commonly several months
  • Downtime: none
  • Session: short, with numbing available
