The most effective treatment for excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis is with Botox®.
Botox® for hyperhydrosis is an injectable procedure that helps control the symptoms of severe underarm sweating by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive the chemical signals, the severe sweating stops. One session of Botox® is normally all that’s required and the effects can last up to 7 months.

Either way, you will know that the advice we offer you is customised just for your needs.
