If you dread the summers and the hot weather because you constantly sweat through shirts and it's embarrassing to be out and about, let this summer be the first summer you can finally live worry-free. I'm Dr. Shereene Idriss, a board-certified dermatologist here in New York City. And Botox is often assumed to be a treatment just for wrinkles. But one of the most life-changing treatments that we do here— and yes, I'm not exaggerating, life-changing— is to use Botox for excess sweating in your underarms. Because when Botox is injected, especially in your underarms, it's going to temporarily block that signal that causes your sweat glands to release sweat. 10 minutes, zero downtime, and it lasts several months.
