Excessive sweating, medically known as hyperhidrosis, involves overactive sweat glands. When sweating becomes excessive it can be embarrassing, uncomfortable and stressful. Excessive underarm sweating can disrupt many aspects of a person’s life, from career choices and recreational activities to relationships, emotional well-being and self-esteem.
At Cosmetic Royale, we treat hyperhidrosis with botulinum toxin type A which is a natural, purified protein that temporarily blocks the release of a chemical that signals perspiration, helping to reduce excessive sweating.
This treatment is a non-surgical procedure whereby many small amounts of botulinum toxin type A are administered into the skin by our Practitioner using a very fine needle. Generally the treatment may take around 1 hour. Discomfort is typically minimal and brief and although the
injection site may sting for a few seconds, normal activities can be resumed soon after.
After the injection it takes about 7 days for the treatment to take full effect
