Excessive Sweating Treatments: Frequently Asked Questions

Botox injections to treat excessive sweating work by blocking the communication between the sweat glands and the nerves responsible for their overactivity, by preventing the release of a substance called acetylcholine.

During your initial consultation, one of our medical doctors will assess your sweat patterns and identify the areas requiring treatment, so the appropriate sweat glands can be targeted.

While individual results will vary, excessive sweating is generally prevented for a period of 6-12 months following treatment.

While Botox injections are a safe and effective treatment option for most people, not everyone is a suitable candidate.

At Medical Aesthetics 360°, we take a personalised approach to every patient. This means you can be sure of a customised treatment plan that’s carefully tailored to your needs – and delivers optimal results.

Botox injections may not be the best option for you if:

  • You’re under 18 years of age
  • You have underlying health conditions
  • You’re currently pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You have a history of nerve or bleeding disorders
  • You have a skin disorder

Most people find our sweat gland blocking injections to be comfortable and relatively painless.

We’ll use a topical local anaesthetic to minimise sensation in the treated area and use very tiny needles to reduce pain during the session.

While you may feel a small degree of discomfort after your treatment, this can be easily addressed using home remedies such as ice packs and standard pain medication.

If you’re concerned or anxious about your treatment, chat to our friendly team for more information on what the treatment involves, so you can feel relaxed and confident when you attend.

Side effects for this treatment are rare – and when they do occur, they’re minor and temporary.

In some cases, patients may experience mild side effects such as redness, bruising, heat and swelling at the injection site. It’s important to note that these symptoms are normal, easy to conceal, and will clear up within a few days.

Most patients will experience a significant reduction in sweating within 3-5 days of treatment, with optimal results apparent after two weeks.

After your session, we’ll talk you through anything you need to be aware of in order to avoid issues and achieve optimal results

There are a few things you should be mindful of after your session, such as:

  • Not exposing your skin to very hot or very cold temperatures
  • Avoiding skincare products that may cause irritation
  • Skipping any strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours
  • Taking care not to rub or massage the treatment area

If you notice any unusual symptoms, be sure to contact us immediately so our medical experts can advise you on what to do.

Our highly personalised level of service means that we’ll tailor a treatment plan to suit your specific needs. As a result, treatment pricing will vary from patient to patient.

During your initial consultation, one of our trained doctors will conduct an assessment of your sweating habits, discuss your situation, and develop a customised plan for your treatment. This will include a detailed breakdown of costs, timeframes and what to expect.
