Armpit botox

[KangarooKenny]

Being peri menopausal I’m finding I sweat a lot, I’m getting arm pit wet patches on my uniform and it’s embarrassing. Has anyone had Botox in the arm pits, did it work and about how much did it cost ?

No but I can recommend this www.amazon.co.uk/Odaban-Antiperspirant-Deodorant-Complete-1-Pack/dp/B001O1M6II

It's a bit faff to use, you apply it before you go to bed and have to wash it off first thing, but you only need to use it about once a week and it literally stops you sweating completely.

I had it on the NHS for hyperhidrosis and it was excellent, however... it lasted for less than a year, and you can only have it via NHS the one time. I cannot afford to have it privately so I can't say how well it works with repeated sessions. But I would highly recommend if it's within your budget!

I’ve got sweat patches on my uniform before I even leave the house. It’s embarrassing. I’ve been using Mitchum gel deodorant with a spray over the top and I still sweat.
I’ll try the Odaban first. Thanks.

I’ve recently been suffering with the same issue and no matter how much I wash my armpits smell after a few hours.

On Sunday I used my husbands deodorant and omg sweat and smell completely gone.

I now smell like a man at work but I’m styling it out.

I wonder if they do non-fragranced men’s deodorant then ? I’m off to find out !

Have you spoken to your Dr about HRT? I wish I'd gone on it sooner, during the last phases of peri.

Odaban is brilliant, I used to get it on prescription due to hyperhydrosis but now it's on Amazon 🙌 I've used it for years and only need it about once a month now so it lasts aaaaages, seriously one bottle can last 2 years. Use it daily till sweating is under control then reduce. It can irritate the skin so when I first started I sprayed it on a cotton wool pad and wiped it on, you get better coverage and can avoid any tender parts. Just washing it off in the shower in the morning is fine.

I have had it and it is the best investment for me. I don't even sweat when I am exercising, and I don't sweat anywhere else either. It lasts for a bout a year for me and it costs £300 with one doctor and with another dentist it costs £500. I'm in London. It is honestly the best thing ever, I don't know why I didn't do it before.

No, I’m not going on HRT for sweating.

Try Driclor. Sounds a bit like Odaban. A roll on anti-perspirant which you use once or twice a week on underarms.Though not so useful if you swear elsewhere. Easy and really effective.

My brother had it. It changed his life

I’ve bought some Perspirex as that’s what my chemist had. Feeling a little bit stingy at the moment, but I’m sticking with it.

Let us know how you get on. Your my Guinea pig

I had it when I was about 20, it’s the best thing I ever did. I didn’t need to go back for more (I think my hormones sorted themselves out), but it changed my life to not have to worry all the time about what I could and couldn’t wear etc. just do it!

Which one is it please @HiDeDi ?

@JamesMartinsWaistcoat it’s mens mitchum stick. First time in months I’ve been able to get through the day without damp patches.

So yesterday I went for a walk and my arm pits felt ‘warm’ so I expected to be sweaty, no. Dry as a bone. I shall start putting this on two nights a week now.

I've had it twice, lasted about 9 months first time and over a year the second. It is expensive and I can't afford it now, that's interesting the NHS only cover one course. I've used deodorants like driclor but longer use redness and the stinging sensation getting worse, but I do have sensitive skin. Now I use the dove cream deodorant at night 2 or 3 times a week and it does the job without any pain.

Back to report on the Perspirex. Put it on last night, and this morning I’m getting ready for work and would normally have sweat patches before I leave the house. But nothing , not a drop.

Mens stuff always works better!

I have the sure mens antiperspirant roll on and it’s a game changer!

always buy the mens version!

I always use men's deodorant sticks too!
The first one I bought (Dove) was because it was cheaper, pound for pound, than the women's (fucking pink tax!) but I found I preferred it.

Now I use Lynx! Or men's Mitchum.
