Now it's warmer, you might have noticed your body sweating more than usual. This is a natural and healthy event. As long as you are washing the sweat and bacteria away each day, it is usual to get a bit whiffy.

But some people experience excessive sweating due to nerves and stress. This experience occurs all throughout the year and can cause distress, particularly if there is a big event such as a wedding or public speaking, because sweat stains are noticeable.

If excessive sweating is not controlled by anti-perspirants, then it might be time to consider using toxin to "immobilise" the sweat producing ducts in the skin. This is a high dose treatment delivered over 2 sessions. The treatment aims to reduce, not cease, your sweating, so consider it as a one-off before a big event, or if you are troubled by ongoing excessive sweating, budget for 2-3 treatments per year. You will continue to sweat in other usual areas of the body, such as head, back and groin, in order to regulate your body temperature during sports.
