- Uncontrolled sweating can occur in various parts of the body including the face, hands, feet or underarms
- Although high temperatures or stress can increase perspiration, they don’t cause hyperhidrosis
- Instead, hyperhidrosis may be an inherited trait that stops the body from properly regulating its temperature
- Until now, excessive sweating has been difficult to control
- Finally, there is a long-lasting treatment for hyperhidrosis that works
Injections for Hyperhidrosis

Is it Safe?
- Yes
- The most common side effects with injections for axillary hyperhidrosis were perceived increase in sweating in areas other than the underarms (4.5%), pain (1.7%) or hot flushes (1%)
- This is considered to be a very safe procedure with a very low incidence of side effects
What areas can be treated?
- Injections are used to treat localized areas of sweating
- They work the best for underarm sweating
- Dr. Vignjevic does not use injections to treat hyperhidrosis of the palms, soles or scalp
- Injections CANNOT be used to treat sweating over the whole body (e.g. back, legs) or very large areas
