What is Hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition that causes excessive sweating beyond what the body needs for temperature regulation. This can occur in various parts of the body, including the underarms, palms, feet, and face. For many people, hyperhidrosis can be uncomfortable and embarrassing, affecting daily life and self-confidence.
Sweating is a normal bodily function that helps regulate temperature, but for those with hyperhidrosis, the sweat glands are overactive. This means they produce more sweat than necessary, even in cool temperatures or when the person is at rest. The exact cause of hyperhidrosis is often unknown, but it can sometimes be linked to other conditions like anxiety, thyroid problems, nerve damage, menopause, or as a side effect of certain medications.
In the past, managing hyperhidrosis was difficult and often required surgical interventions. However, with advances in medical treatments, Botox has emerged as an effective, non-surgical solution.
How Does Botox Help?
Botox is a treatment most commonly known for reducing wrinkles, but it’s also highly effective for treating hyperhidrosis. It works by blocking the chemical signals that nerves send to the sweat glands. When these signals are blocked, the sweat glands stop producing excessive sweat in the treated areas.
Botox has been used safely for medical purposes for over 30 years. It works by targeting the nerve endings that control sweat production. The neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which also triggers muscle contractions, is involved in this process. By reducing the release of acetylcholine, Botox helps to “turn down” the activity of the sweat glands, bringing sweat levels closer to normal.
Unlike topical antiperspirants that only address surface-level sweating, Botox goes deeper, tackling the problem at its source. After a few small injections in the affected area, most patients notice a significant reduction in sweating. Clinical studies have shown that 95% of patients with severe hyperhidrosis experience a substantial decrease in sweating after just one week, with an average reduction of 83%.
Botox treatment won’t completely eliminate sweating—some sweating is necessary for temperature regulation. It may not fully remove body odor either, but it is far more effective than traditional treatments. Areas such as the underarms, hands, and feet respond very well to Botox treatment, and it can even be used in other areas like the scalp, forehead, or neck for off-label purposes when recommended by a healthcare provider.
The Treatment Process
The Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis is straightforward and minimally invasive. The procedure involves injecting small amounts of Botox directly into the areas where excessive sweating occurs, using a very fine needle. The entire process usually takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Before the treatment, we may use iodine followed by talcum powder to identify the exact areas where sweat glands are most active. This helps ensure that the Botox is injected precisely where it’s needed. Because iodine can leave a yellowish stain on the skin, we suggest wearing a dark shirt afterward to avoid any visible marks.
What to Expect After Treatment
Results from Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis typically begin to appear within 3-10 days, with the full effects noticeable after about two weeks. The treatment effectively reduces sweating for an average of 4-6 months. When sweating begins to return, the procedure can be repeated.
Some patients may notice that the treated area is completely dry for 1-2 weeks before some minor sweating returns. The effects of Botox last, on average, for about 7 ½ months, and nearly 40% of patients report a reduction in sweating for more than a year. If you notice your symptoms returning, it might be time for another treatment session.
Is It Safe?
Botox is a well-established and extensively studied treatment, making it a safe and effective option for managing hyperhidrosis. Side effects are generally mild and temporary, such as slight bruising, redness, or discomfort at the injection site. In rare cases, patients might experience increased sweating in areas other than where Botox was injected, or temporary hand weakness if the hands are treated.
Botox has been used to treat a variety of medical conditions for over two decades, so its safety profile is well known. If you have any concerns or questions about potential side effects, our team is here to provide answers and ensure you feel comfortable throughout the treatment process.
Who Can Benefit?
Botox treatment is suitable for anyone who experiences excessive sweating that disrupts their daily life. Whether you’re concerned about sweat during important meetings, social events, or simply want to feel more comfortable, Botox offers a reliable and effective solution.
However, there are some individuals who should avoid Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis, including those with conditions like myasthenia gravis, motor neuron disease, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you have a skin infection at the treatment site, the procedure should also be postponed until the infection clears.
Pre-Treatment Tips:
Armpits: If you’re having your underarms treated, please shave the area 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid wearing deodorant on the day of treatment so we can see the sweat more clearly.
Hands: After hand treatment, avoid activities that could increase the risk of infection in your hands for 24 hours, such as gardening without gloves.
Post-Treatment: You can start using deodorant again the day after treatment, and resume normal activities shortly after.
Final Thoughts
Hyperhidrosis can significantly impact your quality of life, but Botox offers a solution that can help you regain control and confidence. Our clinic is dedicated to helping you feel more comfortable and confident with this safe and effective treatment.
If you’d like to learn more or schedule a consultation, please contact our clinic. We’re here to answer all your questions and guide you through the treatment process.

The Skin Team recently attended a conference hosted by Observ. If you have ever had a Skin Assessment at the Face Place you will be familiar with Observ, the skin diagnostic tool that allows us to more easily identify texture, hydration and deeper pigmentation. Our very own Dr Cat was among the presenters on the day, discussing Facial Ageing in 3D and what we can do about it. This concept goes to the heart of our treatment approach at The Face Place, understanding how the different facial layers are structured and interlinked, how they age, and how we can work alongside this process to help clients achieve their best possible skin.
Dr Cat began by explaining how the SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) works. It is a continuous sheath that runs from the neck to the face, interconnecting the skin, muscle and fat pads, essential for facial expression and keeping the face supported. Understanding how all of these work in harmony, helps us to understand what we are seeing and how to best treat it, rather than a narrow approach of singling one area out, we take a wider approach.
We saw images of the bone reabsorption that occurs through aging, causing loss of volume in the face and skin sagging. I see this with many of my clients and it’s a common cause of concern. In the seven years I have worked at TFP, we have come a long way in being able to offer treatments that help to support underlying structures, such as EmFace, which compliments Skin and Injectable treatments beautifully. EmFace stimulates the elevator muscles, which are integral for keeping the face ‘lifted’. It is the only treatment on the market that helps to rejuvenate these specific structures and has helped many Bell’s Palsy patients balance out muscle imbalances.

Dr Cat speaking on 3D facial ageing
Cat also discussed some of the other upcoming treatments in the industry. There is so much innovation in this space and it’s tempting to want to jump on the latest trend without considering possible long-term complications. A treatment may offer great looking results now, but what are the risk factors long term? At TFP, we want to ensure that your skin looks its best today and in years to come. Our treatments and products are effective and clinically proven. One of our newest treatments, Skin Remodellers are becoming hugely popular due to their low-risk profile. They help to stimulate the skin to produce Hyaluronic Acid, increasing hydration, collagen and strengthening tissue – something we could all benefit from! I have already started a course of treatment utilising Skin Remodellers on my abdomen. Having used steroid creams for chronic eczema most of my life, my skin was significantly weakened and never fully recovered after my pregnancy. It’s something I am very self-conscious of. With a course of Skin Remodellers and Needling, I am hoping to see an improvement in the texture and strength and feel more confident in my own skin this summer.
Cat closed out her session by discussing the golden ratio, a mathematical equation to work out the proportions of the face that are the most aesthetically pleasing. Based on the golden ratio, your face should be symmetrical, though when mirroring images of well-known celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe and Angelina Jolie, they look surprisingly strange. It is the asymmetry that gives us our individual beauty. If everyone followed a mathematical equation for their facial features, we would all look the same. One of the reasons I was drawn to working at The Face Place was Cat’s commitment to a natural-looking aesthetic, celebrating people’s unique beauty. We take an ongoing holistic approach, not just focusing on one area of concern but taking a step back, and considering the whole person. We don’t want clients to look like a carbon copy of a particular celebrity or facial ‘type’, but the best, most confident version of themselves.
Even though I am working in the industry I am always amazed by what is on offer and being at the forefront of this reaffirms why I chose this career path and why I love working at The Face Place.
Why does The Face Place invest so much in sending the medical and skin teams to conferences? It’s a valid question. After all, attending conferences is a significant investment for our company, often raising questions about its worth due to potential revenue loss when teams are away. However, the benefits far outweigh the costs. Conferences offer unparalleled opportunities for learning, networking, and innovation. They provide fresh insights and ideas that can be directly applied to enhance our academy’s training programs. Dr. Catherine Stone, our visionary leader, strongly believes in investing in knowledge. This commitment, despite temporary revenue losses, ensures our growth and excellence at The Face Place. I am grateful for the opportunity to continuously learn and pass on this knowledge to future specialists.
Implementing What I’ve Learned:
Recently, I had the privilege of attending the New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Medicine (NZSCM) conference, a renowned event for aesthetic practitioners. This conference brought together experts from around the globe to share innovative insights and advancements in cosmetic medicine. As a trainer, I see these conferences as an essential part of our growth strategy. The insights I’ve gained will directly influence how I structure and deliver our courses. For example, I’ve learned advanced approach and emerging trends about skin enhancement. This was an eye-opening experience that shifted my perspective as a clinical trainer. As a trainer, I often focus on the technical aspects of treatments, diving straight into the complexities of injectables. However, NZSCM conference reminded me about the importance of pausing and revisiting the basics. Healthy and radiant skin is the canvas upon which all other treatments build. Moving forward, I plan to incorporate this holistic approach into my training session and training modules, ensuring that our academy remains a leader in aesthetic education.
Enhancing Teaching Methods:
One of the most valuable aspects of attending conferences is the exposure to different teaching strategies and methodologies. Listening to expert presentations and participating in workshops allows me to refine my own teaching methods. I can then incorporate these innovative approaches into our curriculum, making the learning experience more engaging and effective for our students.
Staying Ahead with the Latest Trends and Techniques:
Conferences are a goldmine for discovering the latest trends and techniques in aesthetic medicine. Whether it’s a new injectable product, an advanced laser treatment, or a groundbreaking procedure, these events offer a first-hand look at what’s new in the industry. By attending, I can bring this fresh knowledge back to my students, ensuring they are trained in the most current and relevant practices.
Understanding Regulatory and Ethical Standards:
In a field as dynamic as aesthetic medicine, staying informed about regulatory changes and ethical considerations is crucial. Conferences often feature discussions on these topics, providing insights that help me ensure that our training program adheres to the latest standards. This is essential for preparing students to practice safely and ethically in their future careers.
Improving Student Outcomes:
Ultimately, the knowledge and skills I gain from conferences translate directly into better outcomes for my trainees. By integrating new techniques, trends, and insights into our training program, I can better prepare our trainees to excel in their practices. This not only enhances their careers but also elevates the reputation of our academy.
As a clinical trainer in aesthetic medicine, my primary goal is to equip students with the knowledge and skills they need to excel in this rapidly evolving field. But staying ahead of the curve requires more than just experience and expertise—it demands continuous learning and exposure to the latest advancements. So, attending conferences is more than just a professional obligation—it’s an investment in the future. The benefits are manifold, from staying updated on the latest techniques to enhancing teaching methods and improving student outcomes. It’s about being at the forefront of the industry, so I can continue to offer the highest quality education to the next generation of practitioners.

It’s been another busy month of training and trialing new products, and as I write this I’m sitting in the airport lounge on my way back from Aesthetics 24 conference in Sydney. As always, this conference was jam packed from beginning to end, and I’m still processing the fire hose of information we have received over the last 4 days! I was so focused on learning I totally forgot about taking photos, so am limited to just a few that people asked me to be in! 😹
High on the list at Aesthetics 24 this year were Rejuran – a regenerative injectable made from salmon DNA which is designed to strengthen the skin – and Exosomes, which claim to be a ‘supercharged’ version of PRP, albeit derived from the fat cells of young people rather than being your own. We are currently putting both these technologies through our trial process, and in my mind they would have to have significantly better results than PRP for me to consider introducing them to the clinic, as PRP has the safety element of being your own blood products. I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on Rejuran and Exosomes, and whether you have heard of and/or are interested in them! Feel free to reply and let me know…
There’s also 2 new neuromodulator products (similar but different to Botox®️) that have been launched into Australia that are yet to come to NZ, which is actually a good thing, as I can get feedback from my Australian friends and colleagues before we get to trial the products, most likely next year or the year after.
With friends at the Aesthetics conference in Sydney!
Back on the Emsella chair – a true favourite!
Another new product which is almost here in NZ is Profhilo Structura, which is designed to regenerate the fat just underneath the skin in selected parts of the face to help treat facial sinking and facial sagging. It is due to be launched at the end of this month at the NZSCM conference that several of our team are attending, so watch this space!
I’m also excited to look at Profhilo and RF needling with our new Exion machine as a combination, especially for acne scarring. While acne scarred skin will never be normal skin again, there are multiple ways we can soften and improve the scars, and both Profhilo and the Exion are now extra tools in the toolbox, alongside vampire facial, needling, fillers and medical grade skin care.
Most of all, for me the conference was a wonderful chance to catch up with industry friends and previous team members, and it facilitated great discussion amongst some of my peers who are key opinion leaders about how we expand and develop our practice even further. I echo Eve, who attended the recent ASAPS NSS conference in the Gold Coast with me, that ‘the importance of continuous learning and staying updated with the latest advancements cannot be overstated’. (You can read her blog here) This is why we invest so much in continuous learning and training for our team at The Face Place.
We had our team training day last month where we got to trial some of the ‘off-label’ Profhilo treatments that we had seen at ASAPS NSS conference. We also played with some other fun ‘off label’ uses of different products and medicines that have research showing they can significantly accelerate the recovery process. You might be aware that I’m a big fan of the ‘split face trial’ where we treat one side and not the other, or we treat different sides with different treatments to compare (I’ve done quite a few on myself over the years!). This team training day we took it next level and did a 4 way split face trial (dividing the face into quarters to trial different things). There were several different treatments that had been reported at recent conferences that the team wanted to try against each other and it will be interesting to see the results in a few months after a repeat treatment.. watch this space!

Post Exion treatment – just a little red.
We also had a wonderful training day specifically for the medical team where we successfully trialled some new filler techniques, including using Volux off-label in the cheeks for people with thick, heavy tissues, to facilitate a better repositioning of the heavy tissues; and a technique developed by my wonderful friend Simone Dorian which uses ‘pillars’ of filler below the lower lip to roll out a narrow lower lip in someone with a weak chin. Our injectors thoroughly enjoyed the training and were impressed with the results we were able to achieve.
If you know anyone considering training in Cosmetic Medicine, we are very close to launching our Foundational Neuromodulators course, so tell them to keep an eye on our social media for when this course is released. Our clinical nurse trainer Marjorie ran another highly successful Hyalase Workshop teaching clinicians how to use the enzyme that dissolves HA filler, and how to manage both the common and serious side effects with HA dermal fillers. I’m super proud that yet again she got 10/10 rating from all attendees for the workshop!
We had a wonderful day filming upcoming social media educational content with the wonderful Kennedy at the new Quay St clinic at the end of last month. Keep an eye out on socials @thefaceplacenz to see what we were chatting about! Hint: Emsella and Exion were definitely in there!
Social media content filming with Kennedy!
If you suffer from leaky bladder or would like to boost your ‘sexy’ performance, we have now added the Emsella chair to our intimate wellness toolbox. This is a ‘clothes on’ treatment for both men and women, it only takes 28 minutes, and in that time your pelvic floor will contract over 11,000 times at 100% contraction of the muscles – more than you could ever achieve with just normal kegels! This was our most popular station at our clinic launch last month, some people didn’t want to leave the chair! We have special introductory offers for both Emsella and Exion, so chat with our team if you are interested, to find out if they might be right for you.
This month is my actual 50th birthday month, so I am back in the country for just a week before flying out to Denver to visit a friend, and then travel to the Galápagos Islands for the ‘bucket list’ part of my 50th birthday celebration. I have wanted to visit the Galapagos since I learned about it as a little girl, and so will be waking up in the Galapagos for my actual birthday on 29 August! 🎁 After the last few years, I’m just grateful to have made it this far!
Before I leave, I will be giving a keynote presentation at the upcoming Observ conference next Monday on ‘Facial Ageing in 3D’, talking through how ageing affects the different layers of the face, and then which treatments we can use to address these changes.
We’ve always had a strong focus on both learning and teaching at The FacePlace, not only for our team, but also with the investment we make in educating our patients. If you have any questions or suggestions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You can reach me via email catherine@thefaceplace.co.nz or IG @drcatstone
Thank you as always for your continued loyalty and support,
Love and hugs,
