Body Sweat Solutions is our very own treatment for excessive sweating (also known as hyperhidrosis) .
Excessive sweating affects those who have great personal hygiene. Excessive sweating can manifest at any moment – it does not have to be when you are active or have a particular reason to perspire, which can be a great source of anxiety for patients.
How does excessive sweating occur?
The cause is overactive sweat glands that create too much moisture, drenching the skin and clothing and leaving sufferers feeling very self conscious and embarrassed.
Are there other signs that might indicate I am suffering from hyperhidrosis?
- Find that you avoid physical contact such as shaking hands because you are conscious that you have moist palms.
- Avoid activities such as sports as you fear this will trigger an excessive amount of sweat.
- Have problems with normal day to day activities because sweating gets in the way.
- Socially withdrawn.
- Frequently changing your clothing because of excessive moisture.
What does body Sweat Solutions entail?
You will have heard about Botox injections treating wrinkles and facial aesthetics issues. However, the less common use is to quell the sweat glands. Botox, otherwise known as Botulinum Toxin A, is a painless procedure with no recovery period, designed to stop your nerves from transmitting messages to your sweat glands. Thus, no signals, no sweat!
Our excessive sweating treatment in Northampton always begins with a face-to-face consultation at Cliftonville Dental, where we discuss your symptoms, medical history and the areas that affect you most, such as the underarms or palms. If treatment is suitable, a prescription medicine is placed with very fine injections just under the skin to reduce the signals that switch on your sweat glands. The appointment is quick, there is no recovery time, and most patients notice a difference within one to two weeks. Many people from Northampton and nearby towns such as Wellingborough and Daventry choose us for discreet, professional care.
