EXCESSIVE SWEATING TREATMENTS 

 
Excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis is a common disorder which may significantly effect sufferers’ quality of life. BOTOX injections can relieve excessive sweating and were approved for use under the arm in September 2001. They provide a life-altering procedure for those suffering from this embarrassing ailment. BOTOX provides a safe, effective, evidence based treatment which can radically change lives, reducing sweating by up to 90%. 
 
What is Botox and How is it Used to Treat Sweating? 
 
BOTOX works by blocking the actions of the nerves that supply the glands producing sweat. 
Effects are usually noticeable within a few days but may take up to 2-3 weeks to reach the maximum response.. 
 
How Long Does it Last? 
 
Injections are not permanent so we recommend repeat treatments at 3-6 month intervals to maintain the effects. Different people have different responses to treatment. 
 
 
What are the Possible Side Effects? 
 
Very fine needles are used to inject tiny amounts of the purified Botox protein thus side effects are mild and short lived. The injections cause minimal pain or discomfort but the injections itself may sting a little 
 
How Much does it Cost? 
 
Botox for sweating treatments start from £200 per side.
