Botulinum toxin is a fantastic treatment for excessive sweating. It works by blocking the signals that the body sends to stimulate the sweat glands. It is injected into the area affected, most commonly the arm pits. Results can last on average up to 6-9 months.
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.
It is a relatively pain free treatment. You may feel a scratch or sting when injecting.
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.
