Hyperhidrosis Treatment
Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterised by excessive sweating that occurs in various parts of the body, including the hands, feet and armpits. Hyperhidrosis can be caused by genetics, stress, medications and other health conditions, but it can be easily treated.
Types of HyperhidrosisPrimary Hyperhidrosis - Typically localised to one area such as the underarms or palms of the hands. Primary Hyperhidrosis is not caused by any underlying health conditions, it usually runs in families all with the same localised area.
Secondary Hyperhidrosis - Often more generalised, this type of Hyperhidrosis can be caused by factors such as medications, hormonal changes or other medical conditions like diabetes
Symptoms of HyperhidrosisSymptoms of hyperhidrosis vary from person to person, but generally they can be categorised by 3 main issues.
Excessive sweating that interferes with daily activities, including causing anxiety and stressors in public
Sweating that occurs with no known reason. e.g. no excessive heat or exercise.
Skin irritation or infections in the effected area due to excessive sweating
Our Hyperhidrosis TreatmentAt Luxi Lemon we pride ourselves in giving all of our clients the confidence to live their life to the fullest. Our Hyperhidrosis treatment consists of using a reputable numbing cream and then using an injectable solution for a comfortable and almost pain free experience. We will inject small amounts of the solution across the effected areas to block the nerves that cause sweating. The process is not painful, but you may feel small pinches across the skin.
How long will the treatment last?
Treatment duration vary from person to person. Depending on your physical activity and lifestyle will depend how long the treatment lasts, but typically most people will have repeated treatments every 6 months.
Is this treatment right for me?
Hyperhidrosis is not for everyone, however it has been clinically proven to reduce sweating by up to 85% in most patients. Our clinician are always on hand and can go through a consultation with you and discuss your medical background to decide if botulinum toxin is the best course of treatment.
