Each sole holds hundreds of sweat glands, so cost tracks the units of botulinum toxin needed (roughly 75-100 units per sole) and how often the effect, lasting about 4 to 7 months, is refreshed.
Sole hyperhidrosis cost at our Gangnam (Seoul) location depends on how many units of botulinum toxin each sole needs (often around 75-100 units per foot), your sweating severity, whether one or both soles are treated, and how frequently you repeat as the effect fades over roughly 4 to 7 months. The clinic’s doctors confirm your figure at consultation.

Sole hyperhidrosis cost in Gangnam, Seoul is shaped mostly by how much botulinum toxin your feet actually need, not by a flat menu price. Plantar (sole) sweating is treated by injecting a botulinum toxin into the skin of the sole, which temporarily blocks the nerve signal that switches on the sweat glands. Because each sole is a large surface with hundreds of eccrine glands, it typically takes more toxin than a small facial area, and that dosage is the single biggest cost variable.
Severity is the next driver. Mild sweating may be controlled with a lower dose, while heavy, socially limiting sweating usually needs the fuller 75-100 units per sole reported in the literature, and treating both feet naturally costs more than one. The effect is not permanent: sweat control commonly lasts around 4 to 7 months before glands reactivate, so most patients plan for repeat sessions, and that cadence shapes your yearly budget more than any single visit.
At our Gangnam (Seoul) location on Gangnam-daero, about two minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, care is consultation-led and Dr. Yoongon Ryu and the clinic’s doctors first assess your sweating pattern, then explain the dose and cost transparently in English. We follow §68 by using the generic category term “botulinum toxin” rather than promoting any product brand.
The mechanism explains the pricing. Botulinum toxin type A is a neuromodulator that blocks acetylcholine release at the nerve-to-sweat-gland junction, so the treated area stops overproducing sweat until the nerve endings regenerate. Coverage is what costs money: a sole is far larger than a forehead, so the injector places the toxin across a grid of many small points to cover the whole weight-bearing surface, and more coverage means more units. Reported protocols cluster around 75-100 units per sole, with heavier sweaters at the upper end, which is why your severity grade directly moves the total. Comfort measures also factor in, because the sole is sensitive; clinics use techniques such as topical numbing, cooling, or a nerve block, and the chosen approach can influence chair time. Finally, because results fade over roughly 4 to 7 months, cost is best understood as a recurring seasonal or twice-yearly investment rather than a one-off. The clinic’s doctors set the exact dose after examining your feet, so your final cost is confirmed at assessment, not before.

Doctors assess how severe your plantar sweating is, sometimes with a starch-iodine test, since severity is the biggest driver of how many units you need.
A typical plan uses about 75-100 units of botulinum toxin per sole, spread across many injection points, so heavier sweating and larger feet raise the total.
Treating both soles roughly doubles the toxin versus one, so whether you need 1 or 2 feet treated is confirmed before cost is quoted.
Because results last about 4 to 7 months, most patients repeat 1 to 2 times a year, so cost is best planned annually, not per single visit.
After 1 assessment, the clinic’s doctors give you an individualised cost in English rather than a single fixed price for everyone.
See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
Dr. Yoongon Ryu and the clinic’s doctors grade your plantar sweating and explain the dose and cost in English at our Gangnam (Seoul) location.
After numbing, each sole is injected across many small points; the session itself usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes for both feet.
Sweat reduction typically begins within 3 to 7 days and settles over the following 2 weeks as the toxin takes full effect.
Most patients enjoy dry soles for about 4 to 7 months, after which sweating gradually returns and a repeat session is planned.
Because the effect is temporary, 1 to 2 repeat treatments a year keep sweating controlled; avoid heavy foot pressure for about 24 hours after.
Sole hyperhidrosis cost in Gangnam depends on how many units of botulinum toxin each sole needs, usually around 75-100 units per foot, plus your severity and whether one or both feet are treated. Because dose is individual, the clinic’s doctors confirm your exact cost at our botulinum toxin page consultation.
Because each sole needs a dose matched to its size and how many glands are overactive, two patients rarely need the same number of units. A mild case may use fewer units than heavy, sock-soaking sweating. That is why cost is set after a doctor grades your sweating, not from a flat menu figure.
The number of units of botulinum toxin is usually the biggest factor. Each sole is a large surface, so protocols commonly use about 75-100 units per foot, and heavier sweating sits at the upper end. Treating both feet also roughly doubles the toxin compared with one, which your doctor confirms at consultation.
Soles usually need a similar or higher dose than palms and often more than underarms because the surface is large and the skin is thick. This can make sole treatment cost more per session. You can review the broader approach on our botulinum toxin page before your visit.
Sweat control from botulinum toxin on the soles typically lasts about 4 to 7 months before glands reactivate. Most patients repeat 1 to 2 times a year, often before summer. Because it is not a one-time fix, your yearly cost depends on how many sessions you choose to keep your soles dry.
Treating both soles uses roughly double the toxin of one foot, so cost is meaningfully higher, though not always exactly double once consultation is included. Many patients with bilateral sweating do treat both feet for balanced relief. Your doctor confirms the total for one or both soles after examining you.
The sole is sensitive, so clinics use comfort measures such as topical numbing, cooling, or a nerve block before injecting across many points. These are part of the plan rather than surprise charges. Most patients tolerate it well, and any injection-site tenderness usually eases within about 3 days.
Most people notice reduced sweating within about 3 to 7 days, with the full effect settling over roughly 2 weeks as the toxin takes hold. If sweating is still bothersome after two weeks, your doctor can review whether a small top-up is appropriate, which is discussed transparently at your injection consultation.
Downtime is minimal for most patients, who walk out the same day, though the soles may feel tender for a day or so. It helps to avoid long walks, running, or heavy foot pressure for about 24 hours. Comfortable, cushioned footwear afterwards makes the first day easier while any tenderness settles.
Adults with moderate to severe plantar sweating that has not responded to topical antiperspirants are typically good candidates. A consultation checks your medical history, since pregnancy and some neuromuscular conditions are contraindications. Your doctor confirms suitability and the appropriate dose before any treatment or cost is finalised at consultation.
Botulinum toxin for plantar hyperhidrosis is widely studied and generally considered safe when performed by a trained doctor, with side effects usually limited to short-lived injection-site tenderness. A consultation reviews contraindications first. You can learn more about our approach on the botulinum toxin page before booking.
Yes, many patients with both palm and sole sweating plan them together, and treating multiple areas in one visit can be more convenient. Each area is dosed separately, so cost reflects the total units used. Your doctor maps a combined plan and explains the cost of each area transparently at consultation.
Yes, larger soles and very active feet can need more units to cover the sweating surface effectively, which affects the total. Athletes and people on their feet all day sometimes sit at the higher end of the dose range. Your doctor accounts for this when mapping the dose and cost at your assessment.
Aftercare is simple and low-cost: keep the soles clean, avoid heavy pressure for about 24 hours, and wear breathable footwear. There are no expensive products required. A supportive skin care routine for the feet is optional, and your doctor explains any recommendations transparently as part of planning.
A single visit is usually enough, so 1 to 2 days in Seoul comfortably covers a consultation and the injections at our Gangnam location. Because the effect builds over the following days, most international patients can travel on afterwards. Our English-speaking team helps coordinate timing around your itinerary and budget.
Yes, flying within a day or so is generally fine, since the procedure is minimally invasive and there is no significant downtime. Your soles may feel a little tender, so comfortable shoes and avoiding long airport walks help. Your doctor gives you simple aftercare guidance to follow while you travel home.
Because the effect lasts about 4 to 7 months, many international patients time a repeat with return trips to Seoul, and our team offers English check-ins between visits to plan the timing. You can find our clinic details on the botulinum toxin page, and your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity.
