Question by : Is botox a safe and effective treatment for hyperhidrosis?
As summer is coming up I was wondering if I should try botox in my armpits to prevent then from sweating. Is botox worth it and is it effective? Are there any side effects?

Botox is pretty expensive and you will need to take follow-ups every 6 months or so. I wouldn’t go for it but many claim it is effective. Try natural methods like the following first:
1. Avoid taking caffeine, spicy/hot foods, alcohol/tobacco and processed foods.
2. Take Vitamin B complex and Magnesium in ZMA (which helps you sleep much better as well and have amazing dreams) it is commonly used by people who work out.
3. Drink plenty of water to keep your body cool throughout the day.
4. You can also wear darker clothes to cover up the sweat stains and wear cotton to absorb the moisture.
Good luck!
