Hyperhidrosis, i.e. excessive sweating, especially in the area of the armpit, feet and palms, is usually an unpleasant and undesirable problem for anyone, but socially active people are the ones who most often have it treated. Many of them have tried everything – pharmacy products, antiperspirants or various preparations from the Internet, but nothing really helped. It's a vicious cycle...
In this case, botulinum toxin is an ideal solution. It is applied to an area with the tendency to sweat excessively, and the result is almost immediate. Sweating is even completely eliminated, and the client gets rid of any inconvenience associated with excessive sweating for 6-9 months.
How is botulinum toxin applied?
Application of botulinum toxin is not complicated. On the contrary, the procedure is performed as an outpatient procedure and takes only a short time.
The botulinum toxin is applied using a thin needle, so you almost do not feel the punctures. How many punctures need to be applied depends on the size of the problematic site. After application, redness or tiny bruises may appear briefly, but it is not a problem to cover them, and they disappear within a few days.
Clients will feel the direct effect after 48 hours, and the result will gradually develop for about 2-3 weeks. In case of repeated applications, the effect of botulinum toxin is extended to 9-12 months.
What can I do after botulinum toxin application?
Every client is informed about certain measures after the procedure. After the procedure, you should not:
- lie flat for 4-6 hours,
- perform excessive physical activity,
- go to the sauna,
- bend forward,
- drink alcohol for two days,
- and touch the treated area.
When is it not recommended to perform this procedure?
Above all, pregnancy and breastfeeding are contraindications, so if a client cannot completely rule out pregnancy, we recommend her pregnancy testing first. It must also not be applied in case of autoimmune diseases.
And what else to say eventually?
Dear ladies and gentlemen, botulinum toxin is an excellent and time-tested method, and you do not have to be afraid of it. This is demonstrated by the number of botulinum toxin supporters worldwide. Don't believe a dubious article that botulinum toxin is addictive as a drug. Yes, it is a habit, but in a positive sense. Just try it once and you will understand how amazing it is to wear a silk blouse or a tight, coloured t-shirt without worrying about wet stains from sweaty underarms.
