Treating Axillae hyperhidrosis

Your first line of treatment should be a powerful antiperspirant such as Odaban, Anhydrol Forte or Driclor.

Botox

Axillary hyperhidrosis can be treated by Botulinum Toxin A. This is only available in a few NHS hospitals, but is performed in many private hospitals and clinics throughout the UK.
