Everything you need to know about Hyperhidrosis / Excessive Sweating

What is hyperhidrosis and what causes it?

Hyperhidrosis is a common medical condition characterized by chronic, excessive sweating that goes far beyond what the body needs to regulate its temperature. While normal sweating is a response to heat or exercise, hyperhidrosis causes unpredictable, heavy sweating even while you are completely at rest or in cool environments. This happens because the sweat glands are overstimulated by the nervous system, which can severely impact your daily routines, clothing choices, and social confidence.

The treatment works by using a prescription-only formula to temporarily block the chemical signals that trigger your sweat glands. When Dr Robert Jones precisely administers these micro-injections into the skin, the overactive glands stop receiving the message to produce sweat. The rest of your body continues to sweat normally, ensuring your natural temperature regulation is completely unaffected.

Our clinical treatments are highly versatile and target the specific regions with the highest density of sweat glands. The most frequently treated area is the underarms (axillary), where heavy moisture often soaks through and stains clothing. We also successfully treat other prominent areas, including dripping or slippery palms (palmar), persistent dampness on the soles of the feet (plantar), and visible beads of sweat on the face or scalp (craniofacial).

During your session, the targeted skin is thoroughly cleansed and carefully mapped out to locate the zones of maximum sweat production. Dr Jones then uses an ultra-fine needle to perform a series of quick micro-injections just beneath the surface of the skin. For sensitive areas like the palms or feet, we can apply a premium topical numbing cream or localized cooling to ensure your experience is comfortable and stress-free.

You will begin to notice a significant reduction in sweat production within 14 to 21 days after your treatment, with maximum effect after 28 days Scientific studies show up to an 85% reduction in symptoms lasting up to 6-12 months.

As the treatment gradually wears off, you can simply book a maintenance session at our UK clinic to keep your symptoms at bay.

The Truth About Filler Longevity: Longevity, Migration, and Fixes

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers primarily migrate and persist rather than simply dissolving on a predictable 6 to 12-month timeline. While the body’s natural enzymes do break down HA, cross-linking in fillers makes them highly resistant. Consequently, un-dissolved gel deposits can remain trapped and shift under the skin for years.

The Science of “Dissolving” vs. Reality

  • Long-Term Persistence: MRI studies have revealed HA filler residue lingering in the skin 5, 10, or even 15 years after the initial injection. The gel does not magically disappear; it integrates into your soft tissue and continues to draw in water.
  • Natural Breakdown Limitations: Your body naturally produces an enzyme (hyaluronidase) that breaks down HA. However, this natural breakdown is most active in the first few weeks following an injection. The body does not maintain sustained, high levels of this enzyme long-term, as it would destroy your body’s native HA.

 

Understanding Filler Migration

  • How It Happens: Filler does not just sit completely still. Over time, factors like gravity, repetitive facial muscle movements (smiling, chewing, talking), and lymphatic spread cause the gel to disperse and settle into surrounding areas.
  • Overfilling: Migration is highly accelerated by repeatedly “topping up” the same area with too much product over time, eventually causing the tissue to lose its shape and the filler to spill out of the original injection plane.

 

How to Fix It

If you notice lumps, puffiness, or volume where it shouldn’t be (such as above the lip border or under the eyes), the filler needs to be actively corrected:

  • Synthetic Hyaluronidase: A trained practitioner can inject synthetic hyaluronidase, an enzyme that safely breaks down and dissolves the HA gel, allowing your body to naturally reabsorb it.
  • Multiple Sessions: Because migrated filler is often spread out into the tissue, achieving a complete correction may require multiple sessions of hyaluronidase.
