Hyperhidrosis Botox in Gangnam, Seoul
Targeted botulinum toxin injections that quiet overactive sweat glands in the underarms, palms, soles or forehead — no downtime and months of dryness from one visit.
What is hyperhidrosis Botox?
Hyperhidrosis Botox is the injection of small doses of botulinum toxin into the skin of areas that sweat excessively — such as the underarms, palms, soles or forehead. It temporarily blocks the nerve signals that switch on sweat glands, reducing sweating for about 4–6 months without surgery or downtime. Sweating usually drops within 3–7 days, with the full effect at about 2 weeks.
It is especially useful for areas that devices such as miraDry cannot treat, like the hands and feet.

Hyperhidrosis Botox questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
Does Botox work for sweaty hands?
Yes. Palm injections can greatly reduce sweating for several months. Palms are more sensitive, so extra numbing is used, and temporary mild grip weakness can occur.
How long does hyperhidrosis Botox last?
Usually about 4–6 months, sometimes longer in the underarms. Many patients book before summer each year.
Is it painful?
Numbing cream and very fine needles keep it comfortable. Palms and soles are more sensitive than underarms.
Is hyperhidrosis Botox safe?
In appropriate doses it is a well-established treatment. Side effects are usually minor, such as tenderness or small bruises. Your doctor will review your health first.
What about the underarms only?
See underarm Botox, or miraDry if you want a long-lasting result.
