Botox against excessive perspiration
Do you suffer from excessive sweating? Unfortunately, the cause of excessive sweating is not known. It seems that heredity plays a role in this. In medical terms we call excessive sweating, hyperhydrosis. With botox we can treat the overactive sweat glands of the armpits with botox, causing these glands to stop producing sweat.
Are the results of a treatment immediately noticeable?
You will notice a difference about a week after your treatment and the result will be optimal after 2 weeks. The effect lasts about 3 months. In the months after treatment, the botox is slowly broken down by the body.
Treatment: 20 min.
Type injectable: Botox
Result: After 2 weeks optimal
Repeat advice: 3 keer per jaar
Effect: Average of 3 to 4 months
What does this treatment look like?
After we have received you in our clinic, a short consultation will follow with one of our cosmetic nurses to discuss your wishes. A consultation with us is always free and without obligation. Perhaps you have already decided in advance that you want to be treated immediately, so you can immediately schedule an appointment for treatment.
Before the treatment, the skin is marked with a white pencil where the Botox will be injected. The botox is injected with a thin needle. This treatment takes about 15 to 20 minutes and is not painful.

After the treatment, there may be some temporary redness or swelling at the site where the injections were made. Very occasionally a small blue discoloration can be seen. You can continue with what you were doing immediately after the treatment.
What you need to keep in mind is that you do not massage the area for the first 8 hours. You could then move the Botox to the muscle next to it. We also advise you not to do intensive training during the first 24 hours after the treatment that will cause you to sweat profusely and to postpone a visit to the sauna or tanning bed. In theory you could then sweat out the botox.
The effect of the treatment will slowly become noticeable after a week and will be most optimal after 2 weeks.
