Anti-Sweat Injections

Botox For Sweating

Have you ever felt self-conscious about your excessive underarm sweating? Are you bothered by sweat stains, or are you unable to wear specific colours because of them? Are you concerned about the odour caused by frequent underarm sweating?

Anti-sweat injections are the answer you’ve been searching for!

In persons 18 years and older, a prescription-only treatment may be recommended following a consultation to treat the symptoms of extreme underarm sweating (severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis) when topical treatments are not adequate.

How does it work?

Anti-sweat injections work by inhibiting the nerves that cause your sweat glands to activate. When your body temperature rises, your nervous system typically stimulates your sweat glands. This is how your body cools down on its own. The nerves that signal the sweat glands are hyperactive in persons with hyperhidrosis.

The treatment aims to reduce the overactivity of sweat glands in targeted areas. This may lead to a reduction in perspiration in the treated area.

A variety of factors can cause extra sweating.

The etiology of hyperhidrosis is mainly uncertain, while generally, it is harmless. Hyperhidrosis is commonly divided into primary and secondary hyperhidrosis, with abnormal sweating present in both.

Excessive sweating that is not induced by heat, exertion, or an underlying ailment is known as primary hyperhidrosis. This kind frequently emerges in childhood and is caused by factors that generate sweating spouts, such as stress or coffee. This kind does not necessarily last a person’s entire life, but it typically shows up at some point in their life. The cause of primary hyperhidrosis is not fully understood but may have a genetic component.

Anti-Sweat Injections: What to Expect During And After

  • Thirty minutes before the treatment, you will be offered the option of having a numbing cream administered to the treatment region.
  • The treatment area will be marked out. Normally there are around 10 to 20 injections per armpit
  • You should be able to return to work and routine activities almost immediately.
  • A reduction in sweating may be noticed within 1–2 weeks following treatment.

Is it painful to treat hyperhidrosis?

We will offer you the option of having a numbing cream applied to the armpit area prior to treatment. Most people find the procedure tolerable, especially with a topical numbing cream.

Are these injections safe?

This treatment is widely used in clinical settings and considered safe when administered by a qualified health professional.

Which parts of the body can be treated?

At That Face Place, treatment options are available for the underarms and, in some cases, the face—depending on individual suitability.

What Is The Duration Of The Result?

The effects are temporary and generally last between 4 to 8 months. Repeat treatments may be required to maintain results.
