Hyperhidrosis Treatment Montreal for Excessive Sweating

There are a few simple solutions for excessive sweating other than Hyperhidrosis treatment in Montreal, many of which can be tried at home. If those don't work, CHIC Laser is here to help with a simple Botox procedure. As a first defence against sweating, most people turn to specially formulated antiperspirants that may help reduce sweating. Some formulas can be purchased at any pharmacy, but the more potent versions require a prescription from your doctor. These antiperspirants are applied before bed and washed off in the morning, giving ample time to absorb into the body. These usually contain aluminum chloride (or another type of metallic salt) that can block sweat glands, making it more difficult to perspiration. These can be a suitable treatment in cases of “mild” excessive sweating. There are also prescription creams that may reduce the amount of sweat the body produces. A consultation with your doctor is the best way to see if these creams or antiperspirants are best for you.

The most common use of treatment for  Hyperhidrosis in Montreal is the armpits. Since the underarms contain a particular type of sweat glands that becomes active when the body temperature rises, this is the main area where excessive sweating occurs.

Therefore, armpit Botox in Montreal might be the solution for these folks! Other common areas for treatment are the palms, face and soles of the feet. Hyperhidrosis patients can suffer personally and professionally because of the apparent nature of sweaty palms, feet or other skin. 
Skin-to-skin contact can be a source of embarrassment, as their hands, feet or faces may be covered in perspiration for seemingly no reason. Other times, they may be judged for being nervous or anxious in personal or professional situations. To stop the effects of hyperhidrosis, you can use treatment for Hyperhidrosis in Montreal from a reputable medically-trained provider, like CHIC Laser.

When receiving Botox injections for Hyperhidrosis, you'll want to wear a sleeveless or short-sleeved shirt to the clinic. Once your healthcare practitioner has explained the process, they will inject Botox into the treatment area. Using a tiny needle, the botulinum toxin is injected in a grid into the treated area, allowing for even distribution. Your entire appointment will probably last about 45 minutes, including the injections. Most patients report minimal pain during their Hyperhydrosis treatment in Montreal at the CHIC Laser clinic. Your doctor may ask if you'd like a topical numbing cream to reduce discomfort.
