How Does Sweating Affect Us?

Some of us sweat excessively, beyond what may be considered normal. It is a medical condition called hyperhidrosis. It impacts on the clothes you can wear and the type of activities you can undertake. In some cases, excessive sweating can begin to erode self-esteem and even create self-doubt.

Excessive sweating may occur all over the body but more typically is reported as affecting the armpits, hands, feet, forehead and upper lip. Excessive sweating in the armpits is medically known as axillary hyperhidrosis and is generally the main concern.

What Treatments Are Available For Sweating?

Anti Wrinkle Muscle Relaxant injections are very effective at reducing excessive armpit sweating, minimising perspiration by up to 90 percent.

Anti Wrinkle injections can also treat excessive sweating from your hands and feet, but these are less effective than when treating armpit sweating. When addressing your forehead and upper lip sweating, it is important that an appropriate cosmetic outcome is also achieved.

With her background in general practice and a decade of experience working in dermatology, Dr. Jodie can also explore with you other treatments for hyperhidrosis, such as medical grade anti-perspirants, oral medications that reduce sweating, and devices that deliver electromagnetic energy, as well as surgery.

What Is Involved In Sweating Treatments With Dr. Jodie In Melbourne?

To treat armpit sweating, the most common complaint, Dr. Jodie will use a fine needle to inject small amounts of Anti Wrinkle Muscle Relaxants into many sites in your armpit in a grid like pattern, focusing product where sweating is worse. Ice is used prior to your injections to numb the armpit to ensure you are comfortable throughout. The procedure takes around 15 minutes and should dramatically the reduce sweating over the next 2 to 3 weeks. Results can last for 6 to 9 months, but vary between individuals, with women tending to experience longer lasting effects than men.

A similar approach is taken with hyperhidrosis treatment of your hands and feet, however, additional anaesthesia is required as these are very sensitive areas. A 70 percent glycolic acid peel (to increase absorption of local anaesthetic) followed by 60 minutes of numbing cream is necessary prior to injections.

For forehead and upper lip sweating please refer to treatment of Forehead Lines and Above Lip Lines for information on Anti Wrinkle injections in these areas, as the process is the same.
