Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is more than an inconvenience. It can affect confidence, comfort and everyday life, from avoiding certain clothing colours to feeling self-conscious during meetings, handshakes or social occasions.
At SkinCure, we use advanced injectable treatment to temporarily reduce excessive sweating by targeting the overactive nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. The result is long-lasting relief without surgery and with little to no downtime, helping you feel more comfortable and confident in your daily life.
For many clients, treatment means worrying less about sweat marks, damp hands or frequent clothing changes, allowing them to get back to everyday life with greater confidence.
How it works
A purified protein is carefully injected into the affected area using a series of small injections. It works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals responsible for activating the sweat glands, significantly reducing excessive sweating while allowing your body to continue regulating temperature normally.
Treatment typically takes 20–30 minutes, and most clients return to their usual activities immediately afterwards. Results develop gradually over the following 1–2 weeks.
Common treatment areas
Hyperhidrosis treatment may be used to reduce excessive sweating in several areas of the body, including:
Underarms
Palms of the hands
Soles of the feet
Forehead
Every treatment plan is tailored to your symptoms, lifestyle and treatment goals.
What to expect
Your appointment begins with a consultation to understand your symptoms, medical history and the areas that concern you most.
Once your personalised treatment plan has been agreed, a series of small injections are placed just beneath the skin in the treatment area.
Treatment usually takes 20–30 minutes. Mild redness or small bumps may appear immediately afterwards but typically settle within a few hours. Most clients return to work or their usual routine straight away.
Results gradually develop over 1–2 weeks, with a significant reduction in sweating once treatment has taken full effect.
Results & Maintenance
Results typically last between 4 and 6 months, although this varies from person to person.
As the effects gradually wear off, sweating will slowly return. Maintenance treatments can help provide continued long-term relief throughout the year.
