Excessive Sweating - Hyperhidrosis

Concerned with excessive sweating caused by stress, hormones or heat. Find relief with the help of injectables or Radio Frequency (RF) treatment.

The two most effective methods for best outcome and longest lasting reduction in excessive sweating (Hyperhidrosis) are anti-wrinkle Injections, and deep radio frequency micro-needling. We can help diminish the discomfort and embarrassment and provide a sense of relief, as you experience improved personal hygiene and helping to restore your confidence in your personal life, and at work.

Benefits

‘Hyper’ – means excessive, ‘hidrosis’ – means sweating.

Anti-wrinkle injectables or RF micro-needling give better outcomes and longer lasting results compared to over the counter preparations such as antiperspirants and deodorants.

What about the results?

You will notice sweat reduction within a few days and this reduction improves further over the following days and weeks.

Because abnormally active sweat glands are removed the results from this treatment are very long lasting and possibly permanent particularly if a repeat treatment is carried out after a few months.

Treatment guide

What is the process?

The area to be treated is totally anaesthetised with local anaesthetic injections so nothing can be felt at all.

Unlike other RF devices the Morpheus8 that we use has needles that can range from 2mm to 7mm in depth, designed to enable us to successfully reach and treat the deep sweat glands in the skin in all patient types, skin types and colours.

The Morpheus8 fires RF pulses into that level of the skin to reduce the numbers of overactive sweat glands present and so effectively drying up the area.

Considerations

Anti-wrinkle injectables to relieve Hyperhidrosis.

Used worldwide since 1980 for cosmetic purposes to stop muscles contracting and producing wrinkles and lines on the face this product is also extremely effective for switching off sweat production! It is particularly effective in treating hyperhidrosis of the underarms, hands and feet of people suffering from this benign but stressful condition.

How does it work?

These injections specifically block the nerves that supply and stimulate the sweat glands to produce more sweat, resulting in significant drying up of the area.

What is the process?

Patients are instructed not to use any antiperspirants or deodorants for 1-2 weeks beforehand so that a ‘starch-iodine test’ can be performed to precisely outline the areas that are overproducing sweat. These areas can then be targeted to produce the most precise and effective results.

An effective topical anaesthetic cream is then applied to the area for 40 minutes so that the injections can be carried out with relative comfort and ease. Sedation is not usually required but can be used on anxious individuals if they prefer.

The injections are then carried out in a precise grid pattern so that no areas are left untreated.

Allergy or other reactions to the product are extremely rare.

How long does it take for the injections to work?

If the patient is a first-timer, they may not see anything for 10 to 14 days. However, for people who come back for subsequent injections, it often kicks in within a few days.

How long do results last?

Most results last between 5 to 9 months; however, this varies between patients as you may get longer or shorter duration. With the first treatment you should expect less and then this extends following further treatments.

Deep Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling for Hyperhidrosis

Radiofrequency needling treatments for face have been around for a long time but have not been effective for this particular condition. However, a new technology called MORPHEUS8 is extremely effective and is a true game changer in the treatment of hyperhidrosis.

How does it work?

Again, patients are requested not to use any antiperspirants or deodorants for 1-2 weeks beforehand so that a ‘starch-iodine test’ can be carried out to precisely outline the affected area and give the most precise results.

The RF actually removes the overactive sweat glands rather than just blocking their activity, and so results from this treatment are usually very long lasting and very satisfying.
