Excessive sweating

Are you suffering from excessive sweating, also hyperhidrosis mentioned? Excessive sweating can have a major impact on your daily life, self-confidence, and clothing choices. When regular deodorants or medication do not help enough, treatment with botulinum toxin provide an effective solution.

At Xavier Clinics we treat hyperhidrosis in a safe, medically sound and effective method, with the aim of long-term reduction of sweat production.

What is hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which the body produces more sweat than is needed for temperature regulation. This can occur in:

  • Armpits

  • Hands

  • Feet

  • Forehead

  • Back

Excessive sweating can occur both at rest and during light exertion and is often unrelated to heat or stress.

How does botulinum toxin work against excessive sweating?

Botulinum toxin temporarily blocks the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands. This:

  • Significantly reduces sweat production

  • Do sweat glands remain intact?

  • Only the treated area is affected

  • Improves comfort and confidence

The treatment is safe and effective when performed by an experienced physician.

Consultation with the doctor

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

Risks

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.
