What is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by abnormally excessive sweating that goes beyond what is needed to regulate body temperature. It can affect specific areas of the body, such as the underarms, hands, feet, or face, or it can be generalised. For many individuals, hyperhidrosis is not simply an inconvenience; it can lead to:

Social Embarrassment: The constant concern about visible sweat stains or the odour associated with sweat can lead to avoidance of social situations, intimacy, and public speaking.
Emotional Distress: Feelings of shame, anxiety, and low self-esteem are common among those living with hyperhidrosis.
Impact on Daily Activities: Excessive sweating can interfere with everyday tasks, from gripping objects to wearing certain clothing.
Skin Issues: Persistent moisture can lead to skin irritation, fungal infections, and even secondary bacterial infections.

While the exact cause of primary hyperhidrosis is often unknown, secondary hyperhidrosis can be linked to underlying medical conditions, medications, or hormonal changes. Regardless of the cause, the impact on quality of life is significant.

How Our Hyperhidrosis Treatment Works

Our hyperhidrosis treatment at DNA Henley focuses on a highly effective and minimally invasive approach using carefully administered medical injections. These injections contain a purified protein that temporarily blocks the nerve signals responsible for stimulating sweat glands.

Here’s a simplified breakdown of how it works:

Targeted Application: The treatment is precisely injected into the affected areas, most commonly the underarms or facial regions. Our experienced practitioners ensure the injections are administered with the utmost care and precision.
Nerve Signal Interruption: The injected substance works by preventing the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that signals sweat glands to produce sweat.
Reduced Sweating: As a result, the targeted sweat glands become inactive, significantly reducing or eliminating excessive sweating in the treated area.
Duration of Effect: The effects of the treatment are not permanent, but they are long-lasting, typically providing relief for three to six months, and sometimes even longer, depending on the individual.

This method is a well-established and FDA-approved treatment for primary axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis, offering a safe and reliable solution for many.

The Hyperhidrosis Treatment Journey

We believe in a personalised approach to your care, ensuring you feel informed and comfortable throughout your journey with us.

Initial Consultation

Your hyperhidrosis treatment begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced medical practitioners. We’ll discuss your concerns, medical history, and the areas you wish to treat. This is your opportunity to ask any questions you may have.

Treatment Planning

Based on your individual needs, we will develop a personalised treatment plan. This includes determining the optimal dosage and precise injection sites for the most effective results.

The Procedure

On the day of your treatment, the targeted area will be cleansed. The medical injections are then administered with fine needles. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, and most patients describe it as mildly uncomfortable for a brief moment. The entire treatment session is typically quick, often taking around 15-30 minutes.

Post-Treatment Care

You can usually resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment. We will provide you with specific post-treatment instructions to ensure optimal results and comfort.

Follow-Up

We encourage a follow-up appointment to assess your results and discuss any further needs. The effects of the treatment will become noticeable within a few days to a week, with full results typically seen within two weeks.
