Botox Injections To Stop Excess Sweating - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Warm weather is great for some people, but there are many others who dread it. We all sweat, it's a perfectly normal, healthy way to regulate the body temperature in hot weather and during times of exercise. When we get hot we'll sweat, and when the sweat evaporates, it cools us down. 

Sweating is a normal response to nervousness and anxiety, because our emotions can affect the sweat glands. Excessive sweating can cause us embarrassment and affect our self-confidence, and then worrying about it causes anxiety which in turn can make the sweating worse, bringing misery to those who suffer from it. 

There are a few things that you can do to keep your sweating to a minimum. You can use antiperspirants labelled as clinical strength. These usually have aluminium chloride as an active ingredient. You can also introduce more calcium into your diet, as calcium can slow down the sweating which will help to regulate body temperature and reduce perspiration.

A few factors about why you sweat:

• Gender - Women have more sweat glands than men, although they produce less sweat from each gland. Men sweat the most, especially during rigorous exercising.
• Body Mass - The higher a person's body mass index (BMI), the more they sweat, and as men are usually heavier and have more muscle mass than women, they tend to produce more heat than women do while exercising. 
• Alcohol - Too much alcohol consumption will raise the body temperature, causing you to sweat more. Alcohol will increase your heart rate and dilate the blood vessels, making your skin look flushed.
• Spicy Foods - When eating spicy foods the body temperature will go up, and your body will produce sweat to help cool itself down.
• Constant sweating - Those who experience excessive sweating are suffering from a condition known as Hyperhidrosis, which is a condition that causes people to perspire much more than is necessary to regulate their body temperature.
• Hot Weather - On warm days the body temperature will rise, making the heart rate and blood flow increase, trying to cool itself down. 

An excellent solution to excess sweating is botox treatment. Injections of botox to the places on the body affected by hyperhidrosis will help to reduce sweating in these areas by blocking the signals from the brain to the sweat glands. 

Botox injections for hyperhidrosis is an excellent treatment with outstanding results to stop excessive sweating. For those people who sweat a lot, we know how much inconvenience and embarrassing it can bring, making botox injections an ideal solution.

Botox Injections to Stop Excess Sweating - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Sweating, perspiring, glowing - call it what you will, it's a completely healthy way to maintain our body temperature, because when we're hot, we sweat, and when the moisture evaporates, it cools us off. Sweating is a necessary function which controls our body temperature when we exercise and when we are in warm or hot surroundings. People also sweat when they're nervous as emotions can affect the sweat glands.

Excess sweating, also known as Hyperhidrosis is a condition which affects both men and women equally. It can occur on many areas of the body, causing embarrassment and low self-esteem and it can affect the way we live our lives.

• Some of the reasons we sweat are:
• Heat and humidity - hot or humid weather makes us sweat, and when the sweat evaporates, it cools us down.
• Exercise - when we exercise our body temperature rises, and sweating gets rid of the extra heat.
• Illness - fever is your body's way of fighting off an infection.
• Spicy food - spicy food contains capsaicin, which is the compound that gives heat to spicy food.
• Menopause - the drop in oestrogen affects your body's internal temperature gauge.

Any sweating from under the arms can cause embarrassment, but the real problem begins when normal everyday sweating becomes excessive sweating, which means that you produce far more sweat than your body needs you to. The body's cooling mechanism becomes overactive, producing four or five times the amount of sweat that's needed and when this happens it can really affect your confidence, self-esteem and limit your social life.

To help relieve this you can:

• Take a bath or shower once or twice a day.
• Wear clothes made of natural fibres, such as cotton or linen, especially in the warm months.
• Use deodorants with antiperspirants, to help decrease sweating.
• A change of clothing during the day can help your comfort.

Excessive sweating can now be easily and effectively treated with botox injections. The botox hyperhidrosis treatment involves injections of tiny amounts of botox, using a very fine needle in a grid like pattern over the affected area. Botox works by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands, and when the glands no longer receive the chemical signals, the excessive underarm sweating stops.

• Procedure time - 20 minutes
• Downtime - minimal
• Back to work - straight away
• Duration of results - 9-12 months
• Anaesthetic - none

Usually, most cases botox treatment takes effect within a matter of days and the results can last up to 9-12 months. The treatment can easily be repeated as often as it's needed.
