Good to know

Why Does Excessive Sweating Happen?

Hyperhidrosis occurs when your sweat glands activate far beyond what’s needed to cool the body. For some, it’s triggered by heat or exercise. For others, sweat pours even at rest—thanks to overstimulation of nerves that control the glands.

This condition may be:

Primary (focal) – inherited and often affects specific zones like underarms or palms.
Secondary – caused by medications, infections, or conditions like diabetes or thyroid imbalance.

Botox®: 4 – 6 months.

Will insurance cover it?

We don’t bill insurance, but we’ll provide documentation if your provider reimburses medical Botox®. We also offer payment plans.
