Botox for Sweaty Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis): What to Expect

Constantly sweaty feet are the hyperhidrosis nobody talks about — soaked socks by noon, shoes that wear out from the inside, slipping in sandals, and the constant worry about odour. If that’s your daily reality, Botox for plantar hyperhidrosis can deliver months of genuinely dry feet.

Why feet sweat excessively

The soles of the feet have one of the highest concentrations of sweat glands on the body. In plantar hyperhidrosis, the nerves controlling those glands are overactive — so the sweating happens regardless of temperature, footwear, or hygiene. Sprays and powders manage symptoms at best; they don’t address the signal driving it.

How Botox helps

A series of small, shallow injections across each sole temporarily blocks the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands. In clinical studies of hyperhidrosis treatment, most patients saw an 80–90% reduction in sweating in the treated area — while your body continues to regulate temperature normally everywhere else. Full details on our hyperhidrosis treatment page.

Practical bonuses of drier feet: socks and shoes last longer, sandals stop being slippery, and the moisture that feeds odour and skin issues is largely gone.

The honest part: comfort

Soles are a sensitive area — Crystal uses numbing and ice to keep the appointment manageable, and it takes about 20–30 minutes. Like hands, it’s a short, less-than-fun appointment traded for months of relief; most people who struggle with plantar sweating consider it an easy trade.

Results, duration, and pricing

• Noticeable reduction within one to two weeks
• Relief typically lasts 4–9 months, sometimes longer, and can be repeated
• From $1,199 for both feet, confirmed at consultation
• Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition — some private insurance plans in Canada cover the treatment. Check your plan; we can provide a receipt.

Who it suits

• Feet that soak socks regardless of weather or footwear
• Antiperspirants and powders haven’t worked
• Sweating causes slipping, odour worry, or ruined shoes
