Hyperhidrosis Treatment (Excessive Sweating — Botulinum)

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) treatment at Neo Beauty Clinic uses botulinum toxin injected directly into the sweat-gland–rich skin of the armpits, palms or soles to block the nerve signals that trigger uncontrolled sweat production. The procedure uses 13% lidocaine topical anaesthetic cream for comfort, and the fine-needle injections themselves take only a few minutes. Onset of dryness occurs within forty-eight to seventy-two hours, with results lasting six to ten months on average — extending up to ten months with regular use as sweat glands reduce their activity over time.

Hyperhidrosis affects approximately 3–5% of the population and significantly impacts quality of life, professional confidence and social comfort. Botulinum toxin is the gold-standard non-surgical treatment: injected into the dermis of sweat-gland–dense zones, it blocks the release of acetylcholine from sympathetic nerve endings, which is the neurotransmitter responsible for activating eccrine sweat glands. Without this signal, the glands simply do not produce sweat, regardless of temperature, stress or physical activity. At Neo Beauty Clinic the treatment targets three zones: - **Armpits (from 13,000 Kč):** The most common zone; dozens of micro-injections across the axillary vault. - **Palms (from 9,500 Kč):** Treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis, which can affect professional activities, handshakes and fine motor precision. - **Feet/soles (from 9,500 Kč):** Reduces plantar sweating and associated foot odour and hygiene concerns. The procedure begins with application of 13% lidocaine cream across the treatment zone. After adequate anaesthesia (twenty minutes), fine-needle botulinum injections are administered at close intervals across the sweating area — a process that takes a few minutes per zone. No sedation or hospitalisation is required. Onset: dryness begins at forty-eight to seventy-two hours. Duration: results last six to ten months on average; with regular repeat sessions, many patients report the duration extending toward ten months as the glands progressively reduce activity. Post-care includes avoiding exercise for two days and skipping sauna, tanning and wellness facilities for three weeks, and maintaining hydration with 2.5–3 litres of water per day.
