Sweating is normal—it helps cool us down and regulate body temperature. But if you find yourself sweating excessively, even when you’re not hot or active, it can be frustrating and embarrassing. Whether it’s underarm patches, damp palms, or a constantly shiny face, excessive sweating (or hyperhidrosis) can make everyday situations uncomfortable, and you’re often wondering, “How can I stop excessive sweating?”
If strong antiperspirants, lifestyle changes, or home remedies haven’t worked, you might be wondering if there’s a more effective solution. The good news? Anti-wrinkle injections can help by stopping the overactive sweat glands in their tracks.
For some, excessive sweating is triggered by heat, exercise, or stress, but for others, it happens for no clear reason. Hyperhidrosis occurs when the nerves controlling sweat glands become overactive, sending signals that cause too much sweating—even when it’s not needed.
It can be genetic, linked to hormonal changes, or caused by certain medical conditions. Whatever the reason, if you feel like you’re constantly battling sweat patches or wiping your hands dry, it’s worth looking at more advanced treatments.
Most people associate anti-wrinkle injections with smoothing out fine lines, but they also work as an effective method for excessive sweating treatment. They block the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands, reducing sweating in the treated area.
The injections are placed just under the skin in areas like the underarms, hands, feet, or forehead. The results aren’t permanent, but they typically last four to six months, giving you months of dryness and confidence before a top-up is needed.
Sweating starts to reduce within a few days, with full results appearing after one to two weeks.
You won’t stop sweating everywhere – just in the treated areas, so your body still regulates temperature normally. The procedure is quick, taking about 20 minutes with no downtime – you can get on with your day as usual.
Results last for months, and when the effects start wearing off, you can have another session to maintain the results.
