Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) is a medical condition that can significantly interfere with daily comfort, professional interactions, and quality of life. Hyperhidrosis Treatment in Delhi is focused on identifying severity, distribution, and whether symptoms are due to primary focal hyperhidrosis or an underlying secondary condition requiring medical evaluation.
At our doctor-led clinic in Delhi, Hyperhidrosis Treatment in Delhi is evidence-based and tailored to affected areas such as the underarms, palms, feet, or face, ensuring individualised planning focused on safety, precision, and effective sweat reduction. Most patients experience clinically meaningful improvement when appropriately assessed and treated.
To guide treatment decisions, we use a clinician-administered severity assessment (HDSS — Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale). Scores of 3–4 typically indicate severe hyperhidrosis and may warrant procedural or prescription-based intervention.
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating beyond what is required for normal temperature regulation. It most commonly affects specific areas such as the underarms, palms, soles of the feet, or face, and may interfere with daily activities, professional interactions, or social comfort. Hyperhidrosis can be primary focal hyperhidrosis, where sweating occurs without an identifiable underlying medical cause, or secondary hyperhidrosis, where excessive sweating is associated with another health condition or medication.
Red flags that require prompt medical evaluation: new night sweats, systemic symptoms (such as fever or unexplained weight loss), generalized sweating affecting large body areas, or recent medication changes. These features may indicate secondary causes and warrant further medical work-up before treatment planning.
For a more detailed explanation of hyperhidrosis causes, symptoms, and treatment options, you may read our complete guide on what is hyperhidrosis.
Botox injections for hyperhidrosis show visible sweat reduction within 4 to 14 days. While individual results vary, patients report up to an 80% reduction in sweat volume (equivalent to a 2-point drop on the HDSS scale). Below is what you can expect before and after the procedure: Before Treatment: Constant sweat patches, severe social anxiety, ruined professional clothing, and constantly wet palms making basic interactions or holding objects stressful. After Treatment (14 Days): Completely dry underarms and hands, freedom to wear any fabric type or color without worry, and fully restored social and professional confidence.

Many patients search for MiraDry cost in India, but it is important to know that MiraDry is primarily FDA-cleared only for the underarm area (axillary hyperhidrosis). If you suffer from sweaty hands (palmar hyperhidrosis) or sweaty feet (plantar hyperhidrosis), MiraDry cannot be safely applied to those regions.
Botox injections offer a much more versatile, clinically proven, and pocket-friendly alternative. Botox safely treats underarms, hands, feet, and facial sweating with absolutely zero downtime, making it a highly accessible and versatile choice compared to expensive, device-specific setups.
Hyperhidrosis treatment may be appropriate for individuals whose sweating extends beyond normal thermoregulatory function and begins to interfere with comfort, confidence, or daily activities. A structured medical evaluation helps clarify diagnosis and determine whether treatment is suitable based on severity, affected areas, and prior response to conservative measures.
Sweating that interferes with daily activities, such as writing, holding objects, driving, or choosing certain fabrics
Inadequate response to over-the-counter or clinical-strength antiperspirants
Social or professional discomfort, including anxiety related to visible sweat marks or handshakes
Quick clinician-score: Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS)
1 — My sweating is never noticeable and never interferes with my daily activities.
2 — My sweating is tolerable but sometimes interferes with my daily activities.
3 — My sweating is barely tolerable and frequently interferes with daily activities.
4 — My sweating is intolerable and always interferes with daily activities.
(Score 3–4 indicates severe hyperhidrosis; discussion of procedural or prescription treatment options with a doctor may be appropriate.)
Excessive sweating may affect specific body areas in a focal and often symmetrical pattern, characteristic of primary focal hyperhidrosis. Identifying the primary area involved helps guide appropriate treatment selection, as different regions respond optimally to different medical approaches. Below is a structured, area-based pathway commonly used in clinical practice.
Underarm hyperhidrosis commonly presents as visible sweat patches, frequent clothing changes, and irritation from persistent moisture.
First line:
Clinical-strength antiperspirant → Prescription topical anticholinergic (where available)
Procedural options:
Botulinum toxin injections (improvement typically seen within 4–14 days; results may last several months) → Energy-based sweat reduction procedures (such as microwave-based devices) for longer-term improvement in selected cases
Downtime:
Minimal after botulinum toxin injections; energy-based procedures may involve temporary soreness or swelling.
Palmar hyperhidrosis may interfere with writing, handling devices, handshakes, or gripping objects.
First line procedural option:
Iontophoresis therapy for persistent hand sweating
Second-line option:
Botulinum toxin injections in carefully selected cases when
iontophoresis is insufficient
Pain control:
Topical anaesthetic or regional nerve block may be considered to improve comfort during palmar injections.
Plantar hyperhidrosis can lead to damp footwear, odour, skin maceration, or recurrent fungal infections.
First line:
Clinical-strength topical measures
Procedural option:
Iontophoresis therapy is commonly recommended when topical treatments do not provide adequate control
Second-line option:
Botulinum toxin may be considered in selected cases after clinical evaluation
Facial hyperhidrosis may present as noticeable forehead or upper lip sweating, often triggered by heat or stress.
First line:
Topical measures where appropriate
Procedural option:
Targeted, low-dose botulinum toxin injections to reduce excessive facial perspiration while preserving natural expression and function
Downtime:
Minimal; temporary redness at injection sites may occur and usually settles quickly.
At our doctor-led clinic, hyperhidrosis treatment in Delhi is primarily performed using botulinum toxin injections for focal hyperhidrosis affecting areas such as the underarms, palms, and selected facial regions. This evidence-based procedure is widely established in clinical practice for managing excessive sweating, especially in patients who have not achieved adequate results with conservative treatments.
Botulinum toxin works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands in the treated area. By interrupting this signal transmission, sweat production is reduced locally without affecting normal sensation or overall body temperature regulation.
Botulinum toxin injections, commonly used in medical aesthetics, are also established for managing focal hyperhidrosis.
Clinical improvement is typically observed within several days, with full effect developing over one to two weeks. Results vary between individuals but commonly last several months, although duration depends on the treatment area and individual physiological response. Clinical studies show that botulinum toxin reduces sweat production and improves quality of life; repeated treatments may extend the duration of benefit, though individual response varies.
Treatment planning is individualised based on the area involved, severity of hyperhidrosis, and medical suitability assessed during consultation. Dosage varies by anatomical region and symptom intensity and is determined during evaluation rather than fixed in advance. Injection mapping is carefully designed to achieve balanced, predictable outcomes while maintaining safety.
Other management options for hyperhidrosis, such as iontophoresis, prescription medications, energy-based procedures, or surgical interventions, may be appropriate in selected cases and are typically considered when clinically indicated. Not all patients require these interventions, and their relevance depends on symptom pattern, severity, and overall health status.
Clinical Note
Treatment selection depends on the severity of hyperhidrosis, the area involved, prior response to conservative therapies, and overall medical suitability determined after structured clinical evaluation. A doctor-led assessment ensures safe, appropriate, and goal-aligned management.
Other management options for hyperhidrosis, such as iontophoresis, prescription medications, energy-based procedures, or surgical interventions, may be appropriate in selected cases and are typically provided in specialist settings. Not all patients require these interventions, and their relevance depends on symptom pattern, severity, and overall health status.
International options (note on availability):
Topical prescription anticholinergics such as glycopyrronium cloth (Qbrexza®) and the newer sofpironium topical gel (SOFDRA™) are approved in some countries for primary axillary hyperhidrosis and offer non-injectable prescription alternatives to injections. Availability and regulatory approval vary by country and region, and suitability should be discussed during consultation.
Iontophoresis remains a commonly recommended procedural option for palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis, particularly when topical therapies are insufficient. In rare, severe cases unresponsive to medical and procedural treatments, surgical options may be considered following specialist evaluation.

Clinical Note

A structured, doctor-led consultation ensures that hyperhidrosis treatment is planned safely, precisely, and with realistic expectations at our Delhi clinic. The process is clinically structured to be straightforward and minimally disruptive to daily routine. Appropriate documentation and informed consent are completed prior to treatment to ensure clarity regarding indications, benefits, risks, and expected outcomes.
Medical Assessment
Your appointment begins with a detailed medical evaluation to confirm focal hyperhidrosis and exclude secondary causes where relevant. Severity, duration of symptoms, prior treatments, and overall health status are reviewed to determine suitability for botulinum toxin injections.
Area Mapping
Once suitability is confirmed, the affected area is carefully assessed and mapped. Injection points are strategically planned to ensure even coverage and balanced sweat reduction while preserving normal sensation and normal body temperature regulation.
Procedure Duration
Botulinum toxin treatment is typically completed within 20–40 minutes, depending on the area treated. The procedure is performed as an outpatient treatment and does not require hospital admission.
For palmar hyperhidrosis, topical anaesthetic or a regional nerve block may be offered to improve comfort during the procedure, particularly when treating the hands.
Post-Treatment Care
Most patients can resume normal daily activities immediately after treatment. Mild redness, swelling, or temporary tenderness at injection sites may occur but usually settles within a short period. There is no significant downtime, and work can generally be resumed the same day, although strenuous exercise may be avoided for 24 hours.
Follow-Up Plan
Clinical improvement develops over one to two weeks as the treatment effect stabilises. Follow-up assessment may be scheduled where clinically indicated to evaluate response and discuss maintenance planning based on symptom recurrence.
Both Botox injections and MiraDry® are recognised non-surgical treatments for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), but they work differently and are suitable for different clinical situations. The right treatment depends on the affected area, severity of sweating, treatment goals, and medical assessment.
At The Face Clinic, Dr. Reema Arora currently offers doctor-administered Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis. MiraDry® is not available at our clinic. During your consultation, we will recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your symptoms and explain the available evidence-based options.

Botox is a well-established treatment for excessive sweating because it can be used to treat multiple body areas, including the underarms, palms, feet, and selected facial regions. Treatment is customised according to the severity of sweating and individual anatomy, helping patients achieve effective sweat reduction with minimal downtime. Repeat treatments are usually required to maintain results.
Note: MiraDry® is a separate technology designed specifically for underarm sweating. Our clinic currently provides Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis and does not offer MiraDry®. During your consultation, Dr. Reema Arora will recommend the most appropriate treatment based on your condition and treatment goals.
Pricing for hyperhidrosis treatment in Delhi is individualised based on clinical assessment rather than fixed, one-size-fits-all packages. Because botulinum toxin dosing is customised to the area treated and severity of symptoms, cost is determined after structured medical evaluation.
Area treated — Underarm, palmar (hands), plantar (feet), or facial regions require different injection mapping and dosing strategies.
Severity of sweating — Higher sweat gland activity may influence total units required.
Number of units required — Botulinum toxin dosage is tailored according to anatomical area and symptom intensity rather than standardised across patients.
In clinical practice, pricing may fall within different bands depending on treatment area and dosing requirements (for example, underarm treatment may differ from palmar treatment due to anatomical considerations and comfort measures). A personalised written quote is provided after consultation to ensure transparency and accurate treatment planning.
At The Face Clinic, we offer multiple non-surgical treatment options for hyperhidrosis — customized to your severity, site of sweating, and lifestyle. Below is a ballpark pricing guide to help you plan your care:
