Hyperhidrosis Treatment Newcastle upon Tyne

Sweating cools your body naturally. Your nervous system triggers your sweat glands automatically when your body temperature rises. Nervousness can also make your palms sweat.

In many cases, no apparent cause exists for hyperhidrosis, often resulting from an issue with the part of the nervous system that controls sweating. We call this type primary hyperhidrosis. We call hyperhidrosis with an identifiable cause secondary hyperhidrosis.

With hyperhidrosis, sweat glands work overtime for no clear reason and produce excess sweat. Certain odors and foods, such as coffee, citric acid, chocolate, peanut butter, and spices, as well as emotional stress and anxiety, can trigger focal hyperhidrosis.

Allergan produces Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox®, as a well-known treatment for excessive sweating. This toxin blocks the chemical signals at the nerve endings, preventing them from activating the sweat glands. As a result, it effectively reduces excessive sweating.

When treating hyperhidrosis with Botox®, we administer multiple small injections spaced a few centimeters apart in the armpit. This treatment can also target excessive sweating of the hands, feet, other body parts, and the face.
