What to expect on the day of an Excessive Sweating Treatment
On the day of an Excessive Sweating Treatment, patients can expect a straightforward and relatively quick procedure. Depending on the specific treatment chosen, the appointment may involve different steps and durations.
The procedure typically begins with the application of a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort during the treatment. Our providers will then administer the treatment, targeting the areas affected by excessive sweating.
During injections, we will use a fine needle to inject small amounts of the chosen injection into the skin, targeting the sweat glands.
The entire treatment usually takes less than an hour, allowing patients to resume their normal activities immediately afterward, set on a dry path, and calm minds with less sweat.

Excessive Sweating Treatment Recovery
After we complete the treatment, you may experience minor side effects like redness, swelling, or bruising at the treatment sites; these are usually temporary and resolve within a few days. Discomfort or tenderness may also occur but can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Additionally, some individuals may notice temporary dryness or flaking of the skin in treated areas, which is a normal part of the healing process. Overall, most patients can return to their regular activities shortly after treatment, with minimal downtime.
