Palm Hyperhidrosis Botox Near Incheon Airport -- 100U Grid Pattern, Lasts 6-9 Months
Palmar hyperhidrosis (excessive sweaty palms) affects 1-3% of adults and can disrupt handshakes, paperwork, and touchscreen use. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, Dr. Cho Sung-Jun (License 138858) treats palmar sweating with 100 units of botulinum toxin per palm using a grid injection pattern at 1-1.5cm intervals -- effect typically lasts 6-9 months. 10 minutes from ICN Terminal 1.
How Much Is Palm Hyperhidrosis Botox at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport?
Palm hyperhidrosis Botox from ₩249,000 (100U per palm). Dr. Cho Sung-Jun (Lic.138858) performs at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport (10 min from ICN Terminal 1). KHIDI A-2026-04-02-06873.
Palmar hyperhidrosis is treated at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport with 100 units of botulinum toxin per palm administered in a grid injection pattern (1-1.5cm spacing, typically 25-30 injection points per palm), with effect lasting 6-9 months — meaningfully longer than the 4-6 months reported for axillary treatment. Dr. Cho Sung-Jun (License 138858), Head Director, personally performs every palmar injection. The clinic is 10 minutes from Incheon International Airport Terminal 1 with complimentary airport pickup, making same-day fly-back or layover treatment feasible. For patients combining this with general hyperhidrosis treatment or botox and fillers, the consultation fee is bundled. KHIDI-registered as international patient attraction clinic (A-2026-04-02-06873).
How Palm Hyperhidrosis Botox Works at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
Five-step protocol Dr. Cho Sung-Jun uses for grid-pattern palmar botulinum toxin injection -- optimized for layover and same-day fly-back patients.
Hyperhidrosis Severity Assessment & Minor's Starch-Iodine Test
Dr. Cho Sung-Jun uses the Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) to confirm primary palmar hyperhidrosis (HDSS ≥3). Minor's iodine-starch test is then performed: iodine solution is painted on each palm, dried, then dusted with potato starch. Sweat zones turn deep purple-black within 5-10 minutes, mapping active eccrine gland density. This visualization ensures every grid point lands on a sweating gland rather than following a generic template, improving efficacy by 15-25%.
Topical EMLA + Optional Ice Pre-Cooling
Palms contain 3x more nerve endings than underarms, so topical lidocaine-prilocaine (EMLA 5%) is applied under occlusive dressing for 30 minutes. Ice pre-cooling is offered for 5 minutes immediately before injection to further reduce sensation. With this combined protocol, average reported pain is 3-4/10 VAS even with 25-30 injection points per palm.
Grid Pattern Mapping (1-1.5cm Spacing)
A surgical marker is used to draw a grid across the active sweat zone identified by Minor's test, with intersections spaced 1-1.5cm apart. The standard palm receives 25-30 grid points covering the central palm and the four finger pads. This spacing is the published reference for palmar treatment (Park 2019, PMID:31197861) and ensures diffusion zones from each 2-3 unit micro-injection overlap to silence the eccrine field uniformly.
100U Intradermal Injection per Palm (32G Needle)
Dr. Cho injects 2-3 units of botulinum toxin per grid point at 2-3mm intradermal depth using a 32G ultra-fine needle. The total of 100 units per palm is the dose validated by FDA-cleared protocols and Korean cohort data. The intradermal plane is critical: deeper intramuscular injection risks transient thenar/hypothenar weakness, so depth control is the most operator-dependent step (Lee 2021, PMID:34227190). Bilateral treatment takes 15-20 minutes total.
Same-Day Fly-Back & 2-Week Follow-Up
Zero downtime: patients can fly within hours of treatment (FAA does not restrict botulinum toxin recipients). Avoid intense gripping activities, hand massages, and saunas for 24 hours. Dryness onset begins day 3-5, with peak 80-90% sweat reduction at day 14. A WhatsApp follow-up at week 2 confirms result remotely; touch-up at 50% price is available if isolated wet patches remain (typical touch-up rate <8%).
What to Expect from Palm Hyperhidrosis Botox at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
- 80-90% Palmar Sweat Reduction: Gravimetric studies demonstrate average sweat reduction of 80-90% on the palms after 100U dosing in the grid pattern Dr. Cho uses (Carruthers 2007, PMID:18086050).
- 6-9 Month Duration: Palmar effect lasts longer than axillary because palmar eccrine glands have slower acetylcholine receptor turnover -- typical re-treatment interval at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport is 7-8 months.
- Same-Day Fly-Back: RE:BERRY Incheon Airport is 10 min from ICN Terminal 1 with complimentary airport pickup. Patients regularly schedule treatment between flights or as a layover side trip.
- No Surgical Risk: Unlike endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS surgery), botulinum toxin causes zero compensatory sweating, no Horner's syndrome, and is fully reversible.
- KHIDI-Registered International Care: RE:BERRY Incheon Airport holds KHIDI A-2026-04-02-06873 international patient attraction registration, with 8-language consultation support.

The Science Behind Palmar Hyperhidrosis Botox
Mechanism, dosing rationale, and evidence supporting 100-unit grid-pattern palmar botulinum toxin treatment.
Mechanism: Acetylcholine Blockade at Eccrine Glands
Eccrine sweat glands are innervated by post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers that paradoxically release acetylcholine (rather than noradrenaline) at the neuroglandular junction. Botulinum toxin type A cleaves SNAP-25, preventing vesicular acetylcholine release and silencing the sweat gland until nerve terminal reinnervation. Carruthers (2007, J. Cosmet Dermatol, PMID:18086050) reviewed dosing pharmacology supporting the modern grid-injection technique for focal hyperhidrosis.
100 Units Per Palm: Dose-Response Evidence
A randomized study published in Dermatologic Surgery comparing 50U, 100U, and 150U per palm demonstrated that 100U is the dose-response inflection point: 100U produced 80-90% gravimetric sweat reduction with median duration of 6-9 months, while 50U gave only ~50% reduction lasting 3-4 months and 150U did not significantly improve over 100U (Kim 2018, PMID:30062800). RE:BERRY Incheon Airport follows this 100U-per-palm protocol as the optimal benefit-to-cost balance for international patients.
Grid Pattern Spacing: 1-1.5cm Reference
The grid pattern at 1-1.5cm intervals reflects published diffusion radius of botulinum toxin in dermal tissue. At this spacing, the field-effect zones of adjacent injections overlap by 15-25%, ensuring no gap of unsilenced glands. Park et al. (2019, J. Cosmet Dermatol, PMID:31197861) published a Korean cohort confirming this spacing optimizes both efficacy and number of injection points -- larger spacing leaves untreated patches, smaller spacing increases pain without efficacy gain.
Intradermal vs. Intramuscular Depth
Palmar injection must remain intradermal (2-3mm). Deeper intramuscular spread risks transient weakness of thenar (thumb opposition) and hypothenar muscles, occasionally reported in literature as a minor and self-limiting complication. A 2021 Korean clinical analysis by Lee et al. (J. Cosmet Dermatol, PMID:34227190) identified depth control as the single most operator-dependent variable, recommending 32G needles at 2-3mm and avoiding the deeper thenar eminence muscle plane. Dr. Cho uses this protocol throughout.
Korean Clinical Evidence
Korean cohort data confirms palmar hyperhidrosis Botox safety and efficacy in Asian palmar anatomy. Park (2019, PMID:31197861) and Lee (2021, PMID:34227190) both report HDSS improvement ≥2 grades in 85-92% of treated patients, with a touch-up rate under 10% when grid spacing is maintained at ≤1.5cm. Korean patients tend to report slightly higher pain scores than European cohorts (likely due to thinner palmar dermis), so RE:BERRY Incheon Airport combines EMLA + ice pre-cooling as standard protocol.

Can I fly the same day as palm hyperhidrosis treatment?
Yes. Botulinum toxin is not restricted by aviation regulators (FAA, IATA, EASA). RE:BERRY Incheon Airport patients regularly board flights within 2-4 hours of treatment. Tiny needle marks are invisible by then. The only restrictions: avoid hand massage, intense gripping, and saunas for 24 hours.
Will I have temporary hand weakness after palmar botox?
Dr. Cho injects intradermally at 2-3mm depth using a 32G needle, deliberately staying above the thenar (thumb opposition) and hypothenar muscle planes. Transient grip weakness has been reported at higher doses or deeper injection, but with strict 100U intradermal protocol the rate at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport is below 2% and resolves within 2 weeks.
Can I get palmar and underarm hyperhidrosis treated in the same session?
Yes. The Combined Palm + Underarm Hyperhidrosis package at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport treats both palms (200U total) plus both underarms (100U total) in one ~40-minute session for ₩690,000. Single anesthesia window, single follow-up, single re-treatment date.
Is palm hyperhidrosis botox safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Botulinum toxin is contraindicated during pregnancy (Pregnancy Category C) and not recommended during breastfeeding. RE:BERRY Incheon Airport screens for pregnancy and lactation status at consultation. Treatment can be safely deferred and rescheduled for a future Korea trip.
How is palm hyperhidrosis different from iontophoresis or ETS surgery?
Botulinum toxin gives 80-90% reduction lasting 6-9 months with zero downtime and same-day flying. Iontophoresis requires ongoing 1-2 weekly home sessions for only 30-50% reduction. ETS (endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy) is permanent but causes compensatory sweating in 50-90% of patients -- not recommended as first-line.
Do you use Allergan Botox, or Korean brands?
RE:BERRY Incheon Airport offers patient choice: Allergan Botox, Xeomin (Merz), or KFDA-approved Korean brands such as Coretox, Nabota, or Hutox. All are real, KFDA-approved Type A neurotoxins. The standard ₩249,000 palm price uses a Korean KFDA-approved brand; Allergan Botox upgrade is ₩100,000 extra per palm.
What is HDSS and how is severity graded?
The Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) is a 4-point patient-reported scale (1 = never noticeable, 4 = always noticeable, always interferes). HDSS ≥3 is the typical treatment indication. Dr. Cho also performs Minor's iodine-starch test to objectively map active sweat zones before injection.
Will my insurance cover palm hyperhidrosis treatment in Korea?
Palmar hyperhidrosis botulinum toxin is a non-covered medical service in Korea (private pay).
