Hyperhidrosis Treatments in Newcastle
A medical treatment for excessive underarm sweating using prescription botulinum toxin.
Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) can affect confidence, comfort, and everyday activities. For individuals who experience persistent underarm sweating despite antiperspirants or lifestyle measures, medical treatment may provide effective relief.
At Caelian House, hyperhidrosis is treated within a clinical framework using carefully administered botulinum toxin to temporarily reduce sweat gland activity.
What is hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating beyond what is required for temperature regulation.
While sweating is a normal bodily function, individuals with hyperhidrosis may experience persistent sweating that interferes with daily life.
Common impacts include:
• Visible sweat patches
• Frequent clothing changes
• Social or professional discomfort
• Skin irritation
Botulinum toxin can be used to temporarily block the nerve signals that activate sweat glands, significantly reducing sweat production in treated areas.
How the treatment works?
Mechanism
Botulinum toxin works by blocking the chemical signal from nerves that stimulates sweat glands.
When injected into the skin of the underarm, it reduces the ability of sweat glands to produce sweat.

Most patients experience:
• Reduced sweating within 3–7 days
• Full effect within 2 weeks
