Excessive sweating, also medically known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterised by overactive sweat glands. While sweating is the body's natural mechanism to regulate temperature, in hyperhidrosis, this sweating becomes unnecessary and often embarrassing. The most commonly affected areas include the scalp, forehead, underarms, hands, and feet.

City Dock Clinic is proud to offer an effective solution for those battling hyperhidrosis. Our hyperhidrosis treatment involves the use of Botulinum toxin, a powerful tool in controlling excessive sweating. Botulinum toxin works by relaxing the muscles surrounding the sweat glands, reducing both the production and secretion of sweat.

Botulinum toxin has a remarkable medical history, with over four decades of successful use. It was initially approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for wrinkle treatment in 1989 and has since become one of the most popular and trusted treatments worldwide, both for medical and cosmetic purposes.

At City Dock Clinic, we understand the impact of hyperhidrosis on your daily life, and we are dedicated to helping you regain your confidence and comfort. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and embark on your journey towards a sweat-free and worry-free life. Our hyperhidrosis treatment is your key to a drier and more confident you.

    You can typically attain optimal results in just one treatment session. In case additional treatment is needed, we provide a free 'top-up' session within one month of your initial treatment.

  • Is It Painful?

    Our injections employ a tiny, painless needle, and no numbing cream is required.

  • Will There Be Any Side-Effects?

    Like any shot, you might have a bit of redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising, but they typically go away shortly after the treatment. And if there is any bruising, it's usually not much to worry about.

  • Who Will Do The Treatment?

    Our skilled and experienced clinicians handle all our injectable treatments. You can feel confident that our entire team is dedicated to providing you with top-notch care.

  • What Do I Need To Prepare Beforehand?

    Before your treatment, it's a good idea to steer clear of blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen (unless prescribed by your doctor) for three days. And if possible, try to skip alcohol for a day before your treatment. We'll need you to be around for a follow-up afterward, so it's best not to schedule your injectable treatment if you're planning to travel in the next two weeks.
