New York Day Spa Offers Botox and Facial for the Pits

Shizuka New York, the day spa that introduced bird poop facials to Manhattan, offers the Underarm Overhaul that combines underarm botox for sweat reduction with an underarm “facial” and underarm waxing, just in time for summer heat waves. Botox cosmetic was approved by the FDA in 2004 for treating severe underarm sweat (hyperhidrosis) and has quickly become a celebrity beauty secret for preventing embarrassing armpit sweating and staining.

Manhattan aesthetician Shizuka Bernstein and plastic surgeon Robert Silich, M.D. have collaborated to create The Underarm Overhaul ($1500 at the Shizuka New York Day Spa, a comprehensive underarm treatment that deep cleans the underarms, removes unwanted hair, and significantly reduces sweat for up to 6 months.

Botox Cosmetic was approved by the FDA for hyperhidrosis (severe underarm sweating) in 2004. Since then, it has quickly become a celebrity beauty secret for keeping dry under the bright red carpet lights. This special technique of Botox injection, also known as Intradermal Botox, works by targeting sweat glands beneath the surface of the underarm skin rather than facial expression muscles.

“Botox is a safe and effective solution for anyone with average to severe underarm sweating,” Silich says. “My patients find that it’s a convenient way to make New York City summers more bearable.”
Prior to Dr. Silich’s Botox injections, Shizuka Bernstein and her staff give the underarms a cleansing “facial.” The armpits are given a thorough steam cleaning using the Shizuka New York Skincare System, her original line of products. “You can even get clogged pores in your armpits,” Bernstein told

New York Magazine (Intelligencer, 6/9/2008). Her skin care products used in the armpits combine innovative natural ingredients including sake, whole plant mushroom extract, rice bran, pearl protein, hops, sage and water sourced directly from Mt. Fuji.

Also included in the Underarm Overhaul is a complimentary underarm waxing using an organic soy-based wax. Clients may opt to upgrade to Intense Pulsed Light hair removal for an additional $100. Results from the

Botox typically last for 4-6 months.

As the summer heat picks up and NYC subway platforms swelter, The Underarm Overhaul is poised to bring this often neglected area from the pits to the pedestal, bringing relief to pit-stainers everywhere as well as those who just hate to sweat.
