We all sweat, it’s nature’s way of helping us cool down, but excessive sweating – or hyperhidrosis – is a surprisingly common condition that can occur at any moment and really impact quality of life. It’s a condition that isn’t just confined to the summer months as sufferers can be affected all year round.
Quick answer: Body sweat solutions in Northampton at Cliftonville Dental treat excessive underarm sweating using Botulinum Toxin A injections. The treatment blocks the nerve signal that switches on your sweat glands. Most patients notice a difference within the first week, and results last four to seven months. Treatment costs £525, with a complimentary consultation.
Overactive sweat glands produce too much moisture which drenches the skin, soaking into clothing and leaving sufferers physically uncomfortable and often socially embarrassed. Despite excellent personal hygiene, odour can build up which for many people affects their confidence at work and around friends.
For excessive underarm sweating, the problem can be solved very effectively with Body Sweat Solutions, a pain-free procedure which can be performed quickly and safely by experts in hyperhidrosis at Cliftonville Dental in Northampton. Botulinum Toxin A, which has been used by doctors for 20 years to treat facial tics and muscle spasms, is administered by a tiny injection and stops your nerves from sending messages to activate the sweat glands. No messages, no sweat!
Botox is a prescription only medicine and may only be used where it is deemed appropriate by a qualified health professional following a consultation. Please contact us for a complimentary consultation to see if it is suitable for you. The treatment costs £525 and clinical improvement generally occurs within the first week after injection and persists for four to seven months.

Frequently asked questions
How much does treatment for excessive sweating cost?
Treatment at Cliftonville Dental costs £525, and the initial consultation is complimentary. That covers assessment, the Botulinum Toxin A treatment for the underarm area and aftercare advice. Your exact plan is confirmed at consultation, so there are no surprises on the day.
How long do the results last?
Clinical improvement generally starts within the first week after injection and lasts four to seven months. How long it lasts varies from person to person. Once you notice sweating returning, you can book a repeat treatment — there is no need to wait for a fixed interval.
Does it hurt?
Very little. A series of fine needles is used just under the skin, and most patients describe it as small, quick pinpricks rather than pain. No anaesthetic is needed, the appointment is short, and you can return to normal activities immediately afterwards.
Is Botox for sweating available on the NHS?
Usually not. The NHS notes that Botox injections for underarm sweating may not be available through NHS funding, and access varies by area. Body sweat solutions in Northampton at Cliftonville Dental are provided privately, so you can book directly without a GP referral.
Will I stop sweating altogether?
No, and you would not want to. Treatment targets the specific area injected. The rest of your body continues to sweat and regulate temperature completely normally, so there is no effect on your health or on exercise.
Is it safe?
Botulinum Toxin A has been used medically for decades. It is a prescription-only medicine and may only be used where a qualified health professional judges it appropriate following a consultation. Side effects are uncommon and usually limited to mild temporary tenderness or bruising at the injection sites.
Who is a good candidate for Body Sweat Solutions in Northampton?
If excessive sweating affects your daily life, confidence, or work, you may be a suitable candidate. During your consultation, our clinicians will assess your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Can you treat sweaty hands or feet as well as underarms?
Underarm (axillary) hyperhidrosis is the most commonly treated area and responds particularly well. Palms and soles need a different technique and are assessed separately. Bring it up at your consultation and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Who is not suitable for this treatment?
Botulinum Toxin A is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and it can interact with certain medications and neuromuscular conditions. If your sweating started suddenly, affects your whole body or wakes you at night, see your GP first that pattern can point to an underlying cause.
