Hyperhidrosis Injections Montreal
Injections for hyperhidrosis address excessive sweating in a specific area of the body. At our Dermapure clinics in Montreal, the treatment consists of several small injections placed just under the skin, where they temporarily reduce the nerve signals that trigger the sweat glands. Underarms and palms are the areas patients ask about most often.
Hyperhidrosis is not simply sweating more than average, it is sweating beyond what the body needs for temperature regulation, and it can occur regardless of heat or physical effort. This option is generally explored when prescription-strength antiperspirants and everyday measures no longer bring enough relief. The zone treated and the extent of the sweating both influence how the injections are planned.
Because every patient's medical history and symptoms are different, hyperhidrosis injections at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal always begin with a personalized medical consultation with a physician or healthcare professional. Together, you will assess whether this treatment is the most appropriate option for you, and discuss the areas concerned, what a realistic treatment plan could look like, the expected results and possible side effects.

What to Expect During Your Session
Personalized Assessment
Understanding your needs is the first step. During your consultation, we will evaluate the severity of your hyperhidrosis and discuss your goals. Based on this assessment, we will recommend a tailored treatment plan, including the ideal areas to target and the approximate frequency of treatments.
Proceed with Treatment
The treatment involves small injections administered directly into the affected areas, such as the underarms or palms. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes and is well-tolerated by most patients. A topical anesthetic or ice may be used to minimize discomfort during the injections.
Return to Normal Activities
There is little to no downtime with hyperhidrosis injections. You can resume your regular activities immediately after treatment, although some patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which subsides within a few days.
Follow-Up & Maintenance
Most patients experience significant improvement for up to 6 months, depending on the treatment area and individual response. Repeat treatments are recommended as needed to maintain results and ensure continued relief from excessive sweating.
Contraindications
- Hyperhidrosis injections should not be administered in areas with skin infections, open wounds, or active irritation.
- Pregnant or nursing individuals should postpone treatment.
- Individuals with neuromuscular conditions should consult with their healthcare provider prior to treatment.
