How Can Healand Help Improve My Hyperhidrosis

What is Hyperhidrosis?


Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating that goes beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature causing a significant impact on your daily life, causing discomfort, embarrassment, and affecting your self-confidence.


Healands treatment approach to improving Hyperhidrosis


We recommend Botulinum toxin injections, commonly known as Botox, this treatment has proven effective in treating hyperhidrosis.



Here's how it works


It acts as a temporary blockade when injected, Botox temporarily blocks the nerve signals responsible for activating sweat glands in the treated area. This means that the sweat glands don't receive the message to produce sweat.

As a result, the sweat production in the treated area is significantly reduced or eliminated. You will experience a noticeable decrease in excessive sweating.


Areas that can be treated


· Underarms

· Palms of the Hands

· Soles of the Feet



Excessive sweating in these areas can lead to an individual feeling discomfort, odour, or stained clothing. As well as, facing challenges to perform daily tasks. Botox injections can provide relief in these areas, and in doing so give you back the self-confidence to manage daily tasks once again.


What to Expect During the Procedure?


Step 1


Consultation:

Here at Healand Clinic, you will have an initial consultation with a qualified medical professional. During this consultation, your medical history will be reviewed, and the treatment plan will be discussed.


Step 2


Procedure:

Botox injections for hyperhidrosis are relatively quick and painless. The area to be treated will be cleaned, and a topical anaesthetic may be applied to minimise discomfort. The Botox is then injected into the targeted sweat glands.


Step 3


Recovery:

After the procedure, you can typically resume your regular activities right away. However, it's a good idea to steer clear of intense exercise and extreme heat for the first day or two.


Step 4


Results:

It’s common to experience a decrease in sweating within a few days following the procedure, with optimal results usually achieved within a week or two.


Step 5


Duration:

The results of Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis are not permanent and can last from 4 to 12 months, depending on the person. Regular maintenance treatments are necessary to maintain the effects.
