How Is Cosmetic Sweat Reduction Addressed?
Some clients raise concerns about visible sweating in areas such as the underarms, palms, or soles of the feet. At consultation, your prescriber can explain whether cosmetic options may be appropriate for your goals.
During a face-to-face consultation, you can expect discussion about:
- Whether cosmetic sweat reduction may be suitable for you
- Typical appointment length and aftercare advice
- How long results may last and how this varies between individuals
- The importance of tailoring treatment to each person
