Excessive Sweating
What is Excessive Sweating?
Sweating in excessive amounts refers to a larger amount of sweat that often soaks through your clothes or drips from your palms or soles. This type of excessive sweating is not necessarily related to heat or exercise, and can often affect a person’s normal daily activities and largely affect their self-confidence.
Overactive sweat glands is referred to as hyperhidrosis and can easily be treated with prescription-only injectables-the same used for anti wrinkle treatments- for the temporary reduction of perspiration. The injectable will actively block the action of the nerves that activate the sweat glands thereby reducing the sweat produced.
Treatment is very effective, works in as little as 5 days and can last up to 12 months. Areas that can be treated include underarms, back, palms of hands, soles of feet and the scalp.
Patients who have received this treatment often report life-changing results. The aim is to help our clients feel less self-conscious, reducing clothing stains and body odour.

Targets the underlying cause by working to block the activation of sweat glands
Noticeable reduction in sweat produced within 2-14 days. The treatment usually lasts for 6-9 months however with continual use some patients may find the results last even longer, dependent on a variety of factors.
No downtime with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience a little redness and small bumps at the injection site, but this will go away within 15-20 minutes. It is perfectly normal for some patients to experience some bruising or a minor headache but this can be treated with some pain relief medication.
Treatment is quick and simple to carry out.
During the treatment, some patients have said to experience a slight level of discomfort but for most it is not considered painful.
A consultation will be carried out prior to having the treatment done to check your suitability for the treatment, and allow our Aesthetic Nurse to better understand your skin concerns and provide a bespoke treatment plan for you.
