- Consultation and assessment
- Starch (Minor) test to map the sweating
- Botulinum-toxin injection of the affected area
- Region-specific aftercare guidance
Botulinum-toxin treatment for excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), most often of the underarms. At Effect Clinic a starch test first maps the active sweat area, then botulinum toxin is injected to block the nerve signals that trigger the sweat glands, reducing or stopping sweating for around six to twelve months. Treatment of both underarms is 5,000–8,000 Kč depending on the material used.
About this treatment
Hyperhidrosis treatment uses botulinum toxin to interrupt the nerve signals that drive overactive sweat glands. Injected into the skin of the affected area, the toxin prevents the release of acetylcholine, the chemical messenger that would otherwise stimulate the sweat glands; with that signal blocked, sweat production in the treated area is markedly reduced or stopped. At Effect Clinic the most commonly treated region is both underarms, though the same…
The treatment begins with a starch–iodine (Minor) test, in which the area is painted and dusted so that active sweat shows up as dark spots; this maps exactly where the toxin needs to be placed for an even result. The physician then injects botulinum toxin across a grid of small points in the mapped area using a fine needle, in a session comparable in length to a wrinkle treatment. The effect is not immediate — it usually begins to develop within a few…
Aftercare is simple and region-specific: on the day of treatment avoid intense physical exertion, the sauna, steam and the solarium, and after underarm treatment postpone hair removal in the area for a few days. Pricing for both underarms ranges from 5,000 to 8,000 Kč depending on the dose of material required, which is confirmed at consultation. The treatment suits adults troubled by excessive underarm sweating that does not respond to antiperspirants…
