MOA

The degree and duration of response vary between individuals and depend on the treatment approach and area being treated.

Excess Armpit Sweating Treatment Summary

1 x session in most cases.

A treatment session takes around 30 minutes.

A strong topical numbing cream is applied beforehand and, while the treatment involves several small injections, most people find it tolerable.

There is usually little downtime, though minor redness, swelling or bruising can occur and typically settles within a few days.

A reduction in sweating is usually noticeable within a few days  after the treatment.

The effects typically last around six to twelve months, although duration varies between individuals.

There is usually little downtime, so most people can resume their usual daily activities soon after their treatment.

Excess Armpit Sweating FAQs

Most patients experience a reduction in underarm or hand sweating following treatment. The degree and duration of improvement vary between individuals, and some may experience better or longer-lasting results than others. Inadequate response is uncommon, although outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

A reduction in sweating is usually noticeable within a few days to a week, and the effect can last around six to twelve months before wearing off.

A strong numbing cream is applied beforehand and most people find the treatment tolerable, but discomfort varies from person to person.

Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising may occur at the treatment sites. Depending on the area treated, some patients may experience temporary muscle weakness or changes in hand grip strength. Less commonly, headaches or other unwanted effects may occur.

 

Several treatment options are available for excessive sweating. The most appropriate approach depends on the affected area, severity of symptoms and individual medical history.

  • Clinical-Strength Antiperspirants – topical products that help reduce sweat production and may be suitable for mild to moderate symptoms.
  • Iontophoresis – uses a mild electrical current through water and is commonly considered for excessive sweating of the hands and feet.
  • Prescription Medications – topical or oral medicines may help reduce sweating in selected patients, depending on clinical suitability.
  • Energy-Based Treatments – certain device-based treatments may be considered for underarm sweating.
  • Surgical Options – reserved for selected severe cases when other treatments have been unsuccessful, due to their potential risks.

At Medaesthetics, we can discuss appropriate treatment options following an individual assessment.
