Hyperhidrosis is a condition causing excessive sweating, commonly affecting the underarms, hands, or feet. Botulinum toxin injections block the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands, significantly reducing perspiration. Results typically last 4–6 months. It’s a safe, non-surgical solution for managing unwanted sweating.

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition that causes excessive sweating beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. It commonly affects areas such as the underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis), palms (palmar hyperhidrosis), soles of the feet (plantar hyperhidrosis), and the forehead, impacting daily life, clothing choices, and self-confidence.

This condition occurs due to overactive sweat glands, often linked to hyperactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. While excessive sweating can be influenced by factors such as heat or stress, primary hyperhidrosis (which is not caused by an underlying medical condition) can persist regardless of external triggers.

Hyperhidrosis can be disruptive and distressing, and for many people, strong antiperspirants and lifestyle adjustments do not provide sufficient relief, leading to distressing and unsightly cosmetic concerns to do with visual staining of cloths and smell. In these cases, Botulinum Toxin injections are an effective, MHRA-licensed treatment in the UK for managing excessive sweating. They can also be injected in cosmetic therapies where worn garments are stained or soaked by sweating.

How Does the Treatment Work?

At Haus of Ästhetik, we use botulinum toxin type A, an MHRA-licensed prescription medicine that is commonly used for medical and aesthetic treatments. When injected into the skin, it temporarily blocks the nerve signals (acetylcholine) that stimulate sweat glands, reducing excessive sweating in the treated area.

This method is:

Clinically proven and supported by the NHS and NICE guidelines for treating hyperhidrosis when other methods are ineffective.

Safe and minimally invasive, requiring only small, targeted injections.

Long-lasting, providing relief for up to 4–6 months before requiring a top-up treatment.

As this is a prescription-only treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical practitioner is required to determine suitability

Effectiveness of Botulinum Toxin for Hyperhidrosis

Clinical studies have shown that Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) injections for hyperhidrosis can significantly reduce excessive sweating by 82–87% in treated areas. The effects typically become noticeable within 5–7 days, with full results achieved within 14 days.


Sweat Reduction Percentage by Area:

• Underarms (Axillary Hyperhidrosis): 82–87% reduction

• Palms (Palmar Hyperhidrosis): 80–90% reduction

• Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis): 50–70% reduction (slightly lower due to thicker skin and stronger nerve stimulation)

• Forehead & Scalp: 75–85% reduction

Does it Reduce Odour?

Yes! Botulinum toxin not only reduces excessive sweating but also minimises body odour associated with perspiration. Sweat itself is odourless, but when it mixes with bacteria on the skin, it can lead to unpleasant smells. By reducing sweat production by up to 87%, there is less moisture for bacteria to thrive, leading to a significant reduction in body odour.

Odour Reduction Estimates:

  • Underarms: 60–80% less odour
  • Feet: 50–70% less odour
  • Palms & Forehead: Less significant odour reduction, as these areas typically produce less bacteria-induced sweat odour.


How Long Do the Effects Last?

The results of hyperhidrosis treatment with Botox® typically last 4–6 months, after which repeat treatments may be needed to maintain dryness and comfort.

What to expect from your procedure:

  • Treatment Duration:

    30–40 minutes

  • Pain Level:

    Minimal, with a slight pinprick sensation

  • Downtime:

    None – resume normal activities immediately

  • Results Seens:

    Begin to appear within 5–7 days, with full effects in 10–14 days

  • Longevity:

    Typically lasts 4–6 months, with maintenance treatments required for a continued result.

Common Treatment Areas & Their Benefits

Underarms (Axillary Hyperhidrosis) – Reduces excessive underarm sweating, improving comfort and clothing choices.

Palms (Palmar Hyperhidrosis) – Helps with excessive hand sweating, making social interactions, handshakes, and everyday tasks more comfortable.

Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis) – Reduces sweaty feet, which can lead to discomfort, odour, and issues with footwear.

Forehead & Scalp Sweating – Ideal for individuals experiencing excessive facial perspiration, particularly in stressful situations or warm environments.

Injections are precisely placed to target sweat glands in affected areas, ensuring an even reduction in sweating without affecting overall thermoregulation.

Long-Term Benefits of Regular Botulinum Toxin Treatments

• Muscle Fatigue & Reduction in Bulk – With repeated treatments, the targeted muscle becomes weaker over time due to reduced activity, leading to a gradual slimming effect in areas such as the jawline, trapezius, and masseter muscles.

• Prevention of Deep Static Lines – Regular use of botulinum toxin reduces repetitive muscle contractions, preventing wrinkles from becoming permanently etched into the skin and resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

• Increased Longevity of Results – As the underlying muscles adapt to reduced movement, many clients find that they require fewer units over time or that results last longer between treatments.

• Gradual Muscle Wastage (Atrophy) – Over time, the muscle experiences atrophy (a decrease in size and strength), leading to longer-lasting results and a reduced need for frequent treatments in some cases.

• Enhanced Facial and Body Contouring – In areas like the jawline, trapezius, or masseter muscles, consistent treatments reduce bulk and refine the contour, creating a naturally sculpted and balanced aesthetic.
