Raise your hand if you’re in.

We’ve reached the sweaty-est months of the year. And, living in Florida, that’s saying a lot. If you’re tired of reaching for the clinical strength antiperspirant and finding it falls short over and over, I, Danielle Smith, Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner and Miami botox and filler specialist at Smith & co., have a solution for you. And just in time for the rest of the season’s rising temps. Underarm Botox.

A recent article in Self asked if underarm Botox is worth it, then shared responses like: “It’s the only thing that works for me.” And, “I went from obvious wet marks to nothing at all!” If you ask my opinion, “It’s really amazing and effective.” If you’re considering it, it will run you 100 units (50 each arm) at $1,200 for those 100 units. It typically lasts six months, too, so you’ll be able to do summer in Miami (you know, the kind that never ends) for pretty much the whole season. 

In case you didn’t know, Botox can be used to do more than just cancel out crow’s feet and bunny lines. It can also stop excess sweating. According to the article, “Botox is actually FDA-approved to treat hyperhidrosis specifically, a condition in which your sweat glands are hyperactive—and some research has shown that getting 50 units … in each pit can significantly reduce underarm perspiration for three to six months in people with this disorder. However, Botox can help with less severe cases of sweating too.” Some people stop sweating altogether, but most just have significantly reduced sweating. 

The process involves a topical numbing cream. There may be minor discomfort from the injections but the numbing cream keeps it at a minimum. It takes about two weeks for the Botox to kick in. You will most likely need to get the treatment twice a year. But the results have been called life-changing for people who suffer from excessive sweating or are just irritated with normal constant sweating. It’s been said to restore confidence and even help people wear things they’ve always wanted to but weren’t able to because of sweaty pits.
