Treatments for Excessive Sweating.

 

 

​​- What is it

Botox works by blocking the nerves responsible for activating your sweat glands. Normally, your nervous system activates your sweat glands when your body temperature rises. This is how your body automatically cools itself. In people with hyperhidrosis, however, the nerves that signal the sweat glands are overactive.

​​- Why Luisa recommends it

Apart from disrupting normal daily activities, hyperhydrosis can cause embarrassment and social anxiety.   Fortunately, several options are available to treat hyperhydrosis. We find botox works really well as it stops the problem at the cause and is really quick acting and effective,, we have many satisfied patients.

Chrissy Teigan famously documented her underarm botox treatment on instgram.  “Botoxed my armpits. Truly the best move I have ever made,”
