Hyperhidrosis Treatment in Dubai at MED YU MED — overview

Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating beyond what is needed for thermoregulation. Primary hyperhidrosis — the localised form — most commonly affects underarms, palms and soles. At MED YU MED botulinum toxin injections are used to temporarily block the acetylcholine signal to eccrine sweat glands, significantly reducing sweat output in the treated area.

The treatment is effective, well-documented and reversible. Results typically last 4–9 months for underarms; palm treatment may last slightly less. The procedure is performed by a physician.

How it works

• Botulinum toxin blocks acetylcholine release at the neuroglandular junction
• Sweat glands in the treated area stop producing sweat for the duration of the effect
• Multiple small injections across the treatment area using a fine needle
• Starch-iodine test optional to map the active sweat zone before injection

Protocol at MED YU MED

• Topical anaesthetic for underarms; regional nerve block for palms if needed
• Grid injection pattern across the treatment area
• Session: 20–40 minutes depending on area
• Repeat treatment when effect diminishes — typically 4–9 months

Aftercare

• Normal activity can resume immediately
• Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours
• Mild tenderness at injection points for 24 hours — normal
• Effect onset: 5–10 days
