Description

Does sweating affect your daily confidence?

If you experience unpleasant sweating under the arms, on your palms, or soles of the feet — even while resting or with minimal activity, without heat or stress — it may be a sign of hyperhidrosis.

This is not rare or shameful – and there is an effective and discreet solution available.

Sweating is a natural bodily function influenced by heredity, medications, certain foods, and medical conditions. Hyperhidrosis is a condition where sweat glands produce more moisture than necessary for normal thermoregulation. It can affect hands, face, underarms, or feet.

What is hyperhidrosis treatment with botulinum injections?

  • We use small doses of botulinum toxin to block the overactivity of sweat glands in targeted areas
  • The toxin blocks nerve signals that “activate” the glands — reducing sweat production
  • The effect is localized – it does not stop or increase sweating in other parts of the body

Recommended if you:

  • Sweat excessively in the underarms, palms, soles, back or chest
  • Have tried antiperspirants that don’t help
  • Feel hyperhidrosis affects your quality of life, social or professional life
  • Are looking for long-term relief without surgery or medication

How does the procedure work?

  • The treatment takes 20–40 minutes depending on the area
  • The skin is disinfected and numbed if necessary
  • Botulinum toxin is injected into the skin using very fine needles
  • Commonly treated areas are the underarms, but palms, soles, back, forehead, and even oily scalp can be treated

Results and duration

  • Effect starts within 3–7 days, with full results in 2 weeks
  • Sweat production is significantly reduced or stops entirely in the treated area
  • The effect lasts 4–9 months depending on individual physiology
  • Repeat treatments can be done 2–3 times per year

Contraindications:

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding
  • Allergy to botulinum toxin
  • Active inflammation or infection in the treatment area
  • Certain neurological conditions – prior medical consultation is required

Questions? Our specialists will answer

Is the procedure painful?

Usually not in the underarm area. Palms and soles can be more sensitive. If needed, we apply numbing cream.

How soon does the effect start?

Typically within 3–7 days, with full effect after 14 days.

How long does the effect last?

On average 4–9 months, depending on the area and body activity.

Is it safe?

Yes. Botulinum toxin has been used in medicine for over 20 years, including for chronic migraine, muscle tension, and excessive sweating. The procedure is safe when performed by a trained specialist.

Does it stop sweating all over the body?

No. Botulinum works only in the treated area. Sweating in other areas remains normal.

Can Botox help with menopause-related sweating?

Botulinum injections are not the first-line treatment for general menopausal sweating or hot flashes, as those are caused by hormonal changes, not local nerve signals. However... if menopause causes local hyperhidrosis (like persistent underarm sweating that deodorants can’t control), botulinum can be very effective in those specific areas.
