Treatment of excessive sweating in Rossett
Botulinum toxin injections to ease heavy sweating of the underarms, hands or feet when strong antiperspirants haven't settled it — given by Hannah Thomas, our clinic nurse, after a nurse consultation. No NHS waiting list, no GP referral.
If you sweat far more than you should — soaking through shirts, needing several changes a day, damp hands or feet no matter the weather — that's hyperhidrosis, and it can wear you down. When strong antiperspirants haven't helped enough, botulinum toxin is a well-established medical treatment.
A series of small injections just under the skin of the affected area temporarily blocks the nerve signals that switch on the sweat glands, so the area sweats far less. This is the medical use of Toxin for sweating, not the cosmetic facial treatment. At Bridge House Clinic in Rossett, it's given by Hannah Thomas, our clinic nurse, after a nurse consultation (£50) to check it's suitable for you. The effect builds over a week or two and typically lasts several months — often around four to six — and can then be repeated. It treats the sweating rather than the underlying tendency, so it isn't permanent and repeat sessions are usually needed. You can book directly, with no GP referral and no NHS waiting list.
If your underarms are being treated, don't apply antiperspirant or deodorant there on the day of your appointment, so the area is clean and ready to treat.
If your underarms are being treated, avoid shaving them immediately before your visit — a day or two earlier is fine, but freshly shaved skin is best left to settle.
Let us know what medicines you take and about any allergy to botulinum toxin, so Hannah can confirm the treatment is safe for you.
Why have sweating treatment at Bridge House
At your nurse consultation, Hannah goes through your symptoms, history, medicines and any allergy to botulinum toxin, and checks that Toxin is a suitable option for you.
The area to be treated is mapped out, sometimes using a simple starch-iodine test that highlights where the sweating is heaviest, so the injections are placed where they count.
A series of small injections is given just under the skin of the area being treated. It's a quick outpatient appointment, and you go home the same day.
You leave with clear aftercare advice and know what to expect as the effect builds over the following one to two weeks, with repeat treatment arranged when it's needed.

Book now→Is this the same as cosmetic facial Toxin? +
No. This is the medical use of botulinum toxin to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). The injections go just under the skin of the affected area to reduce sweating — it isn't the cosmetic facial treatment used to soften wrinkles.
How much does it cost? +
Every treatment starts with a nurse consultation (£50). Treatment of the underarms is £450, and of the hands or feet £450 each. The price is confirmed before you go ahead.
Who carries out the treatment? +
Hannah Thomas, our clinic nurse — an NMC-registered nurse with a Bachelor of Nursing from Bangor University. She sees you for the consultation and gives the injections.
How long does it last? +
The effect builds over one to two weeks and typically lasts several months, often around four to six. It isn't permanent — because it treats the sweating rather than the underlying tendency, repeat sessions are usually needed, and it can be repeated when the effect wears off.
Does it cure the sweating? +
No. It reduces sweating for a period rather than curing it, and the effect wears off over time, so repeat treatment is usually needed. We can't promise a particular result, but it's a well-established option when strong antiperspirants haven't helped enough.
Do I need a GP referral? +
No — you can book a nurse consultation directly, with no referral and no NHS waiting list.
