Botox - Hyperhidrosis

Service Description

Hyperhidrosis – what is it and why does it occur? Although it is normal to sweat if you do exercise or get hot, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) occurs when the body doesn’t need to cool down. Hyperhidrosis is a long-term condition that can occur for no obvious reason, and can be caused by another condition that you are suffering from or as a side effect of medication you’re taking. It is a common condition that can affect the whole body, especially areas such as your armpits, hands, feet, face, chest and groin. Can hyperhidrosis be cured? There is no cure for hyperhidrosis, but it is possible to manage the symptoms of the condition. For example, wearing loose-fitting white or black coloured clothes can minimise signs of sweating, socks can help to absorb moisture and wearing leather shoes rather than enclosed boots or sports shoes can help too. In addition, avoiding drinking alcohol or eating spicy food can help to minimise your symptoms. Can excessive sweating be treated? If your hyperhidrosis is affecting your confidence, it is possible for it to be treated. Not Just For Wrinkles Wrinkle Injectables can also be used to treat non-cosmetic areas. Some added benefits of treating targeted muscles can include a reduction in excessive sweating (in areas such as the underarms). We use one of the most effective and proven treatments for hyperhidrosis which is a Botox injection into the problem area, normally in the forehead or underarms. In small doses, it blocks the nerves that supply the eccrine glands, preventing them from producing sweat.
