Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating)
Regain Confidence with Effective Sweat Control
Excessive sweating—known medically as hyperhidrosis—can be a frustrating and often embarrassing condition. It may affect areas such as the underarms, palms, soles of the feet, or forehead, and often occurs even without heat or exertion.
At our clinic, we offer an effective and minimally invasive solution using botulinum toxin injections to significantly reduce sweat production on underarm and help you regain control over your comfort and confidence.
What Is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which the sweat glands are overactive, producing more sweat than necessary to regulate body temperature. It can:
- Interfere with daily activities
- Affect clothing choices and social interactions
- Impact self-confidence and emotional wellbeing
While traditional treatments such as antiperspirants or medications may provide temporary relief, botulinum toxin injections offer a more long-lasting and targeted approach.
How It Works
Botulinum toxin is injected into the skin of underarms (axillae). It works by blocking the nerve signals that stimulate the sweat glands, effectively reducing sweat production in the treated area.
- Treatment time: 20–30 minutes
- Anaesthesia: Topical numbing cream can be applied for comfort
- Onset of effect: Within 3–7 days
- Full results: Seen within 2 weeks
The treatment does not affect sensation or thermoregulation in other parts of the body.
Longevity
Most patients experience a significant reduction in sweating for 4 to 6 months. For some, results may last even longer.
Maintenance treatments once or twice a year can help sustain results over time.
Aftercare Tips
To support optimal outcomes:
- Avoid excessive heat, vigorous exercise, or alcohol for 24–48 hours
- Refrain from applying deodorant or perfumed products to the area for 24 hours
- Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours
- Mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur and typically resolves within a few days
- Follow any personalised instructions provided during your appointment.
