Excessive Armpit Sweating (aka Axillary Hyperhidrosis) Treatment with B O T O X ✨
Botox™️ is an effective treatment for excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the armpits. When injected, it works by blocking the signals from the nerves that stimulate sweat glands, reducing sweat production in the treated area.
The procedure is quick, relatively painless, and requires little to no downtime.
Results typically begin to appear within a few days, with full effects visible in about 1-2 weeks. The treatment can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, after which sweat production gradually returns, and repeat sessions may be needed.
Many patients report significant improvement in their quality of life, with a noticeable reduction in underarm sweat and associated discomfort.

How do you protect your skin from the sun?
Protecting your skin from the sun is key to maintaining healthy skin and reducing the risk of sun damage. Here are some good ways to shield yourself from harmful UV rays:
1. Wear Sunscreen Daily
SPF 30 or higher is recommended for daily use. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Don’t forget to reapply every 2 hours, or more often if swimming or sweating.
2. Seek Shade
Try to stay in the shade, especially during peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), when UV rays are strongest.
3. Wear Protective Clothing
Long sleeves, pants, and hats can help block the sun’s rays. Look for UPF-rated clothing for extra protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a great addition!
4. Use UV-Blocking Sunglasses
Protect your eyes and the sensitive skin around them with sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays.
5. Avoid Tanning Beds
Tanning beds expose your skin to harmful UV radiation, increasing the risk of premature aging and skin cancer.
6. Be Cautious Near Reflective Surfaces
Water, sand, snow, and even concrete can reflect UV rays and intensify your exposure, so be extra vigilant in these environments.
7. Check Your Skin Regularly
Keep an eye on your skin for any new or changing moles or spots. Early detection of skin changes can be key to treating skin cancer. If you are concerned about a lesion, please see a board-certified dermatologist for evaluation.
By following these tips, you’ll help keep your skin safe while still enjoying the sunshine! ☀️

I have been on an eyebrow journey the past few months with Obagi Nu-Cil™ Eyebrow Boosting Serum. I was skeptical at first, but have noticed darker, thicker, and fuller eyebrows with once daily use for the past few months.
Check out my before and after at 8 weeks at the end of the clip, but I have continued to see even more improvement since then as you see in the video (bye bye penciling in!)
Currently, Obaji has a 20% off site wide sale going on, so grab yours while you can!
