EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Excessive sweating treatment is a life-changing solution for those struggling with persistent underarm sweating and other forms of hyperhidrosis. This condition can lead to social anxiety and discomfort, making daily activities challenging. At our hyperhidrosis clinic in Leeds, we offer advanced solutions, including Botox for sweating, to effectively reduce sweat production. Our treatments help restore confidence, allowing you to wear the clothes you love without worry. Results typically last 6-9 months, ensuring long-term relief from excessive perspiration.

WHAT IS HYPERHIDROSIS?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating, significantly surpassing the body's normal requirements for temperature regulation. This condition can affect various parts of the body, including the armpits, hands, feet, face, and chest, leading to discomfort and often, emotional distress. Unlike normal sweating, hyperhidrosis may occur without physical exertion or high temperatures, making daily activities and social interactions challenging for those affected.

CAUSES OF EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, can stem from various factors. Primarily, it may be classified into two types: primary hyperhidrosis, which has no identifiable medical cause and is thought to be hereditary, and secondary hyperhidrosis, which is a result of an underlying health condition. Secondary causes include thyroid problems, diabetes, infections, and certain medications. Lifestyle factors and diet can also exacerbate the condition, with caffeine and spicy foods being common triggers.

WHEN TO SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE

Excessive sweating can sometimes indicate an underlying medical condition. If it disrupts daily life or causes social anxiety, seeking professional advice is essential. Consulting a hyperhidrosis specialist can help diagnose potential causes and recommend effective excessive sweating treatments.
Signs You Should Seek Medical Advice Why It’s Important
Sweating disrupts daily activities May indicate primary or secondary hyperhidrosis, requiring treatment.
Excessive sweating causes social anxiety Impacts confidence and quality of life, affecting work and social interactions.
Sudden increase in sweating Could be linked to thyroid issues, diabetes, or infections.
Night sweats without an obvious cause May suggest hormonal imbalances or underlying health concerns.
No relief from antiperspirants Suggests the need for advanced hyperhidrosis treatments like Botox for sweating.

HOW IS HYPERHIDROSIS DIAGNOSED?

Diagnosing hyperhidrosis typically involves a detailed medical history and physical examination. Your doctor may perform tests to rule out underlying conditions. In some cases, a sweat test that measures the severity of sweating or lab tests to check for thyroid issues, diabetes, or infections may be necessary to determine the cause and extent of the condition.

OUR SPECIALISED BOTOX® TREATMENT FOR UNDERARM SWEATING

At Aesthetica Medical, our primary and most effective treatment for underarm hyperhidrosis is the targeted application of botulinum toxin. This simple, non-surgical procedure involves a series of small, precise injections into the skin of the armpits. The toxin works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that command the sweat glands to produce sweat. This significantly reduces perspiration in the treated area, providing you with the dryness and confidence you deserve for 6-9 months.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR CONSULTATION

INITIAL ASSESSMENT

Your consultation at Aesthetica Medical will begin with a thorough assessment of your sweating concerns, including the areas affected, the impact on your daily life, and any previous treatments you have tried.

DISCUSSING YOUR TREATMENT OPTIONS

Following the initial assessment, we will discuss the most suitable treatment options for your condition. This will include detailed information about the procedures, expected outcomes, and any potential side effects.

PREPARING FOR TREATMENT

Preparation for treatment may involve guidelines on avoiding certain medications or dietary factors that could affect the outcome. We ensure you are fully informed and comfortable with the proposed treatment plan.

AFTERCARE AND POST-TREATMENT GUIDANCE

Following a hyperhidrosis treatment, proper aftercare ensures long-lasting results:
  • Avoid strenuous activities and hot showers for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
  • Refrain from using deodorants, perfumes, or harsh skin products for a few days.
  • Stay hydrated and wear loose-fitting clothing to allow the skin to breathe.
  • If any redness or mild discomfort occurs, applying cold compresses can help.
A follow-up appointment at Aesthetica Medical in Leeds is recommended to assess results and determine if additional treatments are needed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • HOW CAN BOTULINUM TOXIN TREAT EXCESSIVE SWEATING?

    Botulinum toxin effectively treats excessive sweating by blocking nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands. It's injected into the affected area (commonly underarms), with results typically lasting 6-9 months.

  • HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?

    It is a quick treatment, which takes only 2-3 minutes to inject. However we do apply numbing cream to the area prior to injection which can take 15-20 minutes to work. 

  • IS THE EXCESSIVE SWEATING TREATMENT PAINFUL?

    The treatment is relatively pain-free. You might feel a slight scratch or sting during the injections.

  • IS BOTULINUM TOXIN SAFE FOR SWEATING TREATMENT?

    Millions of people worldwide have been safely using botulinum toxin over the last 30 years for cosmetic purposes and even longer for medical purposes. It is a safe treatment, provided it is carried out by an experienced medical professional. 

  • HOW DO YOU TREAT HYPERHIDROSIS IN LEEDS?

    At Aesthetica Medical in Leeds, we offer a range of hyperhidrosis treatments to manage excessive sweating effectively. The most popular option is Botox for sweating, which blocks the nerve signals responsible for activating sweat glands. Other treatments include medical-grade antiperspirants, iontophoresis (electrical therapy), and lifestyle modifications. A consultation with our hyperhidrosis specialist will help determine your best treatment plan.

  • WHAT IS EXCESSIVE SWEATING A SYMPTOM OF?

    Excessive sweating can be a standalone condition known as primary hyperhidrosis, where the sweat glands are overactive without any underlying health issue. However, it can also be a symptom of secondary hyperhidrosis, which may indicate thyroid problems, diabetes, infections, menopause, or certain medications. If sweating is sudden, occurs mainly at night, or affects the whole body, it's essential to consult a hyperhidrosis specialist in the UK to rule out any medical conditions.

  • WHAT DO DERMATOLOGISTS RECOMMEND FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING?

    Dermatologists recommend several excessive sweating remedies, depending on the severity of the condition. For mild cases, clinical-strength antiperspirants containing aluminium chloride can help. Treatments such as Botox injections, iontophoresis (using mild electrical currents), oral medications, or even surgery may be suggested for more persistent sweating. At Aesthetica Medical, we specialise in Botox for underarm sweating, which provides relief for up to 6-9 months.

  • WHAT IS THE REASON FOR SWEATING TOO MUCH?

    Sweating is a natural bodily function that helps regulate temperature, but hyperhidrosis occurs when the sweat glands become overactive without an apparent reason. This may be due to genetics (primary hyperhidrosis) or an underlying health condition (secondary hyperhidrosis). Factors such as stress, high temperatures, spicy foods, caffeine, and certain medications can also exacerbate excessive sweating. Identifying the cause is key to choosing the proper hyperhidrosis treatment.

  • CAN EXCESSIVE SWEATING COME BACK AFTER TREATMENT?

    Yes, the effects of botulinum toxin typically last 6-9 months. Once the treatment wears off, sweating may gradually return, and repeat sessions are recommended to maintain results. Many patients choose regular treatments to enjoy ongoing relief.

  • CAN EXCESSIVE SWEATING BE PERMANENTLY CURED?

    While botulinum toxin provides long-lasting relief, it is not a permanent cure. Some surgical options can offer more permanent solutions, but these are usually considered for severe cases. Most people manage the condition effectively with non-invasive treatments like botulinum toxin.
