    A Dermatologist can give you a shot of botox under your arm and it will stop. No kidding.

    Actually, its about 50 units per armpit and even if diagnosed with hyperhydrosis, most insurances won't pay for it making one armpit cost you a grand ol $500-1000.

    Speaking of odd armpits, I only have one armpit that grows hair... due to excessive use of prescription deordant. Really cuts down on the shower time so I can't complain :p
    This just blew my mind. If I cover my body with prescription deodorant...

    500-1000 for a shot per pit is absolutely ridiculous!!!

    Dont know about price, I'm from a different country.... still, botox is only temporary ^^

    The doctors would hate to collapse the price umbrella.
