Putting an End to Hyper Sweating Hyperhidrosis Treatment with Botox® at AIVA in Berlin

Most people think of sweating as an annoying nuisance, but it is actually a vital bodily function. It is essential for temperature regulation and to prevent your body from overheating. How much you sweat depends on your training level, your genetics and your hormone levels. Normally, you only notice it on hot summer days or when you are exercising.

But for the 1-2% of the population who suffer from hyperhidrosis, sweating is a constant annoyance that makes everyday life and social interactions difficult. They perspire uncontrollably and often profusely, regardless of the temperature or time of year. Sweating episodes can occur at any time during the day or even at nighttime, negatively affecting the quality of sleep. Some sufferers sweat all over their body, but in most cases, the sweating is restricted to a specific area such as the hands (palmar hyperhidrosis), feet (plantar hyperhidrosis), armpits (axillary hyperhidrosis) or the forehead (craniofacial hyperhidrosis).

If conventional hyperhidrosis treatments with antiperspirant creams, gels or sprays have failed, we at AIVA in Berlin can offer an effective alternative: targeted Botox® injections.

Treating hyperhidrosis with Botox®

Botulinum toxin, commonly known by the brand name Botox®, is primarily used for aesthetic applications in the treatment of wrinkles. However, the same mechanism that helps reduce crow’s feet can also regulate sweat production: Botox® inhibits neural activity in the targeted area, thereby disrupting the neurological signals that trigger sweat glands.

  • TREATMENT

    Before the treatment

    Medical assessment and consultation: The first step to any hyperhidrosis treatment at AIVA in Berlin is a comprehensive consultation. We will discuss your individual situation and whether Botox® is a viable option, inform you about the course of treatment, the advantages and disadvantages and the costs involved.


    The actual treatment

    1. Preparation: After a brief review of the consultation, the areas to be treated are cleaned and disinfected to prevent infection. An anaesthetic cream or other type of local anaesthetic may be applied to minimise pain and discomfort. This is particularly important for sensitive areas such as hands and feet.
    2. Injection: The Botox® is injected into the target areas using very fine needles and precise dosages to suit your individual needs. Depending on the body area, up to 50 injections may be needed to achieve the desired effect. The whole procedure takes about 45 minutes.


    Aftercare

    Harmless side effects such as redness, slight swelling and minimal discomfort are likely to occur immediately after the hyperhidrosis treatment but will subside quickly. The team at our Berlin clinic will give you instructions for proper aftercare at home, and you can then go about your daily life. If any side effects persist or you have any concerns, our staff will be happy to help.

    As with aesthetic Botox® treatments, the full effect will take up to two weeks to develop. It will usually last for about six to twelve months, at which point the procedure can be repeated.

  • CUSTOMER REVIEWS

    ‘As soon as I enter the premises, I experience a very pleasant atmosphere. I have the feeling that the friendly service staff are already waiting for me. ‘May I take your jacket?’ they say. I take a seat in the waiting room which has the flair of a salon. A little later: ‘Would you like a glass of water or perhaps a coffee?’ I think I could have asked for tea if I'd wanted to. Shortly afterwards, the attending doctor comes to fetch me in person. Great consulting room, state-of-the-art equipment. The treatment/examination method is explained in detail. All my questions were answered and I was given tips that went beyond the actual topic. After the examination, the doctor accompanies me back to reception, where she says goodbye to me. My overall impression: I really feel like a human being here and am treated as such. Conclusion: gladly again.’ – Dietrich Böhme – Source: Google reviews (translated)
