Is it expensive? Does my insurance/extended health benefits help pay for my hyperhidrosis treatment?
Price will be discussed with the physician at your consultation. There is a charge for the administration of the BOTOX® and then a cost for the amount of BOTOX® used (per unit). Many insurance companies will cover some of the cost of the treatment for excessive sweating so that you will only be charged for the service of administering the BOTOX and whatever portion your health insurance does not cover. We now have available to us through Allergan, the company who produces BOTOX®, a special program which helps expedite approval of your treatments so that you can receive treatments the same day as your consultation if you wish.
