FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Botox hyperhidrosis treatment (excessive sweating) - FAQS

What is Botox and how does it work?

Botox is a very pure preparation of a protein, Botulinum toxin type A. When small doses are injected into the skin, Botox  blocks the actions of the nerves that supply the eccrine glands; this prevents the glands from producing sweat. Botox blocks the nerve endings but over about 6-12 weeks new nerve endings grow to replace them.

What happens during treatment?

Using a very fine needle, a small amount of a solution of Botox is injected into 10 to 15 places about 1.5 - 2 cm apart and spread evenly in each area.  A course of botox excessive sweating treatment (hyperhidrosis) takes about a total of 30 minutes.  Sometimes before the procedure your doctor will apply the iodine starch test to confirm which areas are sweating excessively.  However, this rather crude test can mask other areas of excessive sweating.

Does It Hurt?

Only minimally. Because the skin of the armpit is thin, Botox hyperhidrosis treatment there is barely felt. The needles used are extremely fine, and they themselves are not felt much but the Botox injection itself stings lightly.

How quickly does it work and how long will the effects last?

You should notice some change for the better within a week of your treatment. Different people have different responses to treatment. In a clinical trials, sweat production was reduced by more than 90% in two weeks with botox hyperhidrosis treatment. 

Is Botulinum Toxin Safe?
Yes, to put it quite simply. We only use botulinum toxins licensed in the UK.

Is Botulinum Toxin Not Expensive?
No, not when you consider the cost of frequent changes of clothing, deodorants etc. The cost of embarrassment and social phobia is also high.
