TREATMENT FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING (HYPERHIDROSIS)
OnabotulinumtoxinA is a natural, purified protein with the ability to temporarily block the secretion of the chemical that is responsible for “turning on” the body’s sweat glands. By blocking this this chemical, Botox® essentially “turns off” sweating at the area where it has been injected. The injections of dilute Botox® are very shallow just below the surface of the skin. In clinic we will do an assessment to determine if treating your excessive sweating is appropriate.
TELL ME, DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
“I spend considerable time each day dealing with sweat - changing clothes, “freshening up”, wiping, placing napkins or pads under my arms or in my pockets, bathing, and hiding under dark-colored, bulky clothes.
I am worried about what others may think so I make excuses to stay home so I don’t have to interact with people”
DID YOU KNOW?
BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THAT. ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS GET STARTED WITH A COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION & ASSESSMENT.
In addition to the psychological stresses, over active sweating can cause painful or irritating skin problems, such as bacterial or fungal overgrowth, infections, and skin maceration.
Ask me about The BOTOX® Access Program – a reimbursement program that supports coverage of BOTOX®to treat your hyperhidrosis regardless of your insurance coverage.
“I’ve struggled with underarm sweating for over 14 years. The Botox injections were quick and painless. I can wear all the clothing I haven’t worn in years and have confidence again. It’s life changing. Thank you Shanna”

MORE TESTIMONIALS
Less than 2% of the body’s sweat glands are found in the underarms. Temporarily shutting off these sweat glands, therefore, has little effect on body thermoregulation.
Topical freezing may be applied which takes about 20 additional minutes and the actual procedure itself takes about 20 minutes.
Prior to Botox injections prepare the area by shaving at least 48 hours prior. There are no restrictions in work or leisure activity afterward; however, its best to avoid intense exercise or the use of a sauna/hot tub on the day of the injections as is also the recommendation with any Botox® injections.
During the procedure, a very fine needle is used to inject tiny amounts of Botox® just under the skin throughout the area in a grid pattern about 1 to 2 cm apart. For your comfort we offer ice, topical freezing cream, or vibration analgesia.
The cost of Botox treatments for hyperhidrosis will vary depending upon the size of the body area you need to be treated and whether insurance will cover any of the cost for you. Ask me about the The BOTOX® Access Program – a reimbursement program that supports coverage of BOTOX®to treat your hyperhidrosis regardless of your insurance coverage. Your cost includes the cost of the Botox® medication $402 as well as the service fees for injection $150.
At your appointment, we will apply on your behalf through the central dispensing pharmacy by fax. The central pharmacy & they will charge your credit card the full amount of the Botox® medication ($402/vial). The pharmacy will send you the receipt for the medication cost and assist you with the Special Authorization paperwork. If your insurance company approves the Special Authorization, the insurance company will send you a cheque for the medication cost charged to your credit card minus your co-pay portion. If the insurance company denies your Special Authorization claim, the pharmacy upon proof of denial will refund the full medication cost charged to your credit card for the first treatment only. If you bring in your own vial of botox, the injection fee is $150.
