Laser Sweat Reduction
Laser Sweat Reduction
Laser Sweat Reduction is an innovative technique for the permanent reduction of excess armpit sweating, also known as Axillary Hyperhidrosis Using a procedure very similar to laser liposuction we can target the sweat glands of the armpit. During this minor procedure we use a fine cannula to deliver a safe, powerful laser to separate the layers of skin and reduce the number of active sweat glands.
Benefits of Laser Sweat Reduction
- Permanently reduces sweating by 50-70%
- Immediate results
- Minimally invasive and low downtime
- Since all the instruments used are blunt and the heat from the laser coagulates the blood vessels which reduces bruising normally associated with other methods of removing sweat glands.
After the Procedure of Sweat Reduction
A 2mm cannula containing a laser optical fibre is inserted just under the skin. The layers of fat are separated by the laser which exposes the sweat glands. The treatment takes between 1 and 3 hours. Due to the small size of the cannula, scarring and recovery time are kept minimal and as the procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, clients are able to leave the clinic within 30 minutes of the procedure. A reduction will be noticed instantly. Final results will be apparent at 2-4 weeks.
