Dosage
Routinely at least 50 units of toxin are administered to each underarm. Individual results may vary and some patients may need a stronger dose. Using less than 50 units per underarm will result in a relief of your symptoms for only a few months.
For a very severe case of hyperhidrosis a higher dose is required.
You will need a consultation with Dr. Hamilton and he will advise you with regards to your suitability and possible outcome of your treatment.

The cost of the procedure is based on the dosage required to successfully treat the severity of the sweating. Dr. Hamilton is highly experienced in this procedure and knows a bespoke dose of toxin is needed to get a result that each patient is happy and confident with.

For patienbts who are sensitive to needles, a triple anaesthetic prescription numbing cream is applied to the injection sites for 30 minutes before injecting.
Results
The treatment take two weeks to take effect and should routinely last 4-6 months.
