Who is Excessive Sweating Treatment For?

Excessive sweating treatment, also known as Hyperhidrosis treatment, is designed for individuals who experience uncontrollable sweating that impacts their daily lives. If you find that standard antiperspirants are ineffective and excessive sweating causes discomfort or embarrassment, this treatment could be an ideal solution.

Hyperhidrosis treatment is particularly beneficial for:

Those who struggle with excessive sweating in areas such as the underarms, hands, feet, or forehead.
Individuals preparing for important events, such as weddings, job interviews, or public speaking engagements, where confidence is key.
Anyone looking for a long-lasting solution to manage excessive perspiration effectively.

How Does Excessive Sweating Treatment Work?

Anti-wrinkle injections are a clinically proven method for treating Hyperhidrosis. This treatment works by using a purified protein that temporarily blocks the nerve signals responsible for activating the sweat glands. As a result, the treated area produces significantly less sweat without affecting the body’s natural cooling process.

Key Benefits:

✔ Effective & Long-Lasting: Reduces excessive sweating for up to 4–12 months, depending on individual response.
✔ Fast Results: Noticeable improvement within two weeks after treatment.
✔ Non-Surgical & Safe: Minimally invasive with no downtime, allowing you to resume daily activities immediately.

Common Treatment Areas:

Underarms (most popular area)
Palms of hands
Soles of feet
Forehead & scalp

If excessive sweating is affecting your confidence and daily routine, this treatment could provide a long-term solution for dryness and comfort.

Is the Treatment Painful?

The procedure involves a series of small injections using a fine needle. While some clients report mild discomfort, it is generally well tolerated. The underarm area is the least sensitive, while the hands and feet may feel slightly more discomfort due to the number of nerve endings in these areas.

For those concerned about pain, a topical numbing cream can be applied before treatment to make the procedure more comfortable. The entire session typically lasts 20–30 minutes.

How Long Does the Treatment Last?

The effects of Hyperhidrosis injections typically last between 4 and 12 months, depending on individual response. Most clients enjoy a significant reduction in sweating for around 6 months, after which the effects gradually wear off.

To maintain long-term results, regular treatments are recommended. Many clients schedule biannual sessions to keep excessive sweating under control year-round.

What Are the Side Effects?

Hyperhidrosis injections are a safe and well-researched treatment. However, as with any medical procedure, there are some potential side effects. These may include:

Mild redness or swelling at the injection site (usually resolves within a few hours).

Slight bruising (rare and temporary).

A feeling of dryness in the treated area (this is the intended effect).

In very rare cases, some clients experience temporary muscle weakness in the treated area, which resolves naturally.

If you have any concerns, your practitioner will discuss all risks and benefits during your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What medication is used to stop excessive sweating?

Anti-wrinkle injections are a well-established treatment for excessive sweating. They work by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands, significantly reducing sweat production in the treated area. This treatment is particularly effective for the underarms, hands, feet, and forehead.

What is the best treatment for excessive sweating?

The best treatment depends on the severity and location of excessive sweating. Anti-wrinkle injections are highly effective for long-term sweat control, especially in localised areas like the underarms. For milder cases, clinical-strength antiperspirants or prescription medications may help. In extreme cases, surgical options such as sweat gland removal may be considered.

How do I stop sweating too much?

There are several ways to manage excessive sweating:

Use a strong antiperspirant (preferably one with aluminium chloride).
Wear breathable clothing made from natural fibres like cotton or moisture-wicking fabrics.
Manage stress and anxiety, as emotional triggers can increase sweating.
Consider anti-wrinkle injections, a long-lasting solution for persistent sweating.

What causes profuse sweating?

Excessive sweating, or Hyperhidrosis, can be caused by overactive sweat glands with no clear trigger (primary Hyperhidrosis) or due to an underlying medical condition (secondary Hyperhidrosis). Common causes include hormonal changes, high temperatures, anxiety, certain medications, or medical conditions like infections, diabetes, or thyroid issues.

Are you unhealthy if you sweat a lot?

Not necessarily. Some people naturally sweat more than others, especially in warm weather or during exercise. However, if sweating is excessive, unpredictable, or interfering with daily life, it’s worth speaking to a specialist to rule out any underlying conditions.

What is excessive sweating an indicator of?

Excessive sweating can sometimes signal an underlying health issue, such as hyperthyroidism, low blood sugar, infections, or even neurological conditions. If sweating occurs suddenly, excessively, or at night without an obvious reason, it’s best to seek medical advice.

When should I be concerned about sweating?

You should see a doctor if:

You start sweating suddenly and excessively without a clear reason.
Sweating occurs mostly at night (night sweats).
It is accompanied by weight loss, fever, dizziness, or irregular heartbeats.
Sweating significantly disrupts your daily life and confidence.

What is the strongest antiperspirant?

Clinical-strength antiperspirants containing aluminium chloride are the most effective. These work by temporarily blocking sweat ducts, reducing sweat production. If over-the-counter options are ineffective, prescription antiperspirants may be recommended.

Does sweating a lot mean heart problems?

Excessive sweating alone does not necessarily indicate a heart problem. However, cold sweats or sudden sweating accompanied by chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness could be signs of a serious heart issue, such as a heart attack. If you experience these symptoms, seek urgent medical attention.
