Excessive Sweating Treatment

What is the treatment for excessive sweating?

Excessive sweating, medically known as hyperhidrosis, is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating which occurs because the sweat glands are over-active. It can affect various parts of the body, including the underarms, palms, soles of the feet, and face. This condition can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, causing discomfort and social anxiety. Fortunately, effective treatments are available to help manage hyperhidrosis and improve your daily living.

About the Procedure

Our hyperhidrosis treatment involves the use of botulinum toxin injections, a safe and effective method approved by medical professionals. The procedure works by blocking the nerves responsible for activating your sweat glands. When your body no longer receives the signals to sweat excessively, the problem is significantly reduced or eliminated. The treatment will only work on the areas of the body that have been injected. It can also be called “sweat reduction treatment”.

Costs

Our hyperhidrosis treatment is priced from £350 per treatment. This includes a comprehensive consultation, the treatment itself, and follow-up care to ensure optimal results. We aim to provide transparent and competitive pricing for our high-quality services.

Aftercare

After the procedure, you may experience mild redness or swelling at the injection sites, which typically subsides within a few hours. It’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, hot baths, and saunas for 24-48 hours post-treatment to ensure the best results. We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to follow to maximise the effectiveness of your treatment.

Timing

The hyperhidrosis treatment procedure takes approximately 30-45 minutes, making it convenient to fit into a busy schedule. You can expect to start noticing a reduction in sweating within a few days, with full results typically achieved within one to two weeks. The effects of the treatment generally last between 4-6 months, after which repeat treatments may be necessary to maintain results.

Contraindications

While hyperhidrosis treatment is safe for most people, there are certain contraindications to be aware of:

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Neurological disorders affecting the muscles
• Allergies to any ingredients in the botulinum toxin formulation
• Active infections at the proposed injection sites

Our practitioners will conduct a thorough consultation to ensure that the treatment is suitable for you and discuss any medical conditions or medications that might affect the procedure.
