Hyperhidrosis treatment at Cannelle Skin Clinic in Oxford offers targeted relief from excessive sweating using doctor led injectable techniques. Restore comfort and confidence with a safe and effective treatment performed by Dr Mattia Parducci.
Doctor-led hyperhidrosis treatment, assessed and delivered by Dr Mattia Parducci at Cannelle Skin Clinic.
Excessive sweating, known medically as hyperhidrosis, is for anyone whose sweating feels beyond their control. It goes further than warm-weather dampness, soaking through clothing, dripping from the hands or beading on the face even when you are cool and still. That kind of sweating shapes what you wear, how you shake hands and how relaxed you feel in a meeting or on a date. This treatment reduces sweat production at the source, so you can move through the day feeling dry, comfortable and in control.
It is well suited to you if you recognise a few of these concerns:
Hyperhidrosis treatment is a doctor-led medical option that reduces overactive sweat glands in a chosen area, giving reliable, long-lasting dryness. A series of small injections calms the glands responsible for excessive sweating, so they produce far less moisture. It is a well established approach in medical dermatology, most often used for the underarms but suitable anywhere sweat glands are highly active.
Because it is a medical treatment, it always follows a face-to-face assessment with Dr Mattia, who looks at the pattern, severity and impact of your sweating before recommending the most suitable plan. It is a strong option once topical antiperspirants and lifestyle changes have not been enough.
Sweating starts with a signal. Nerves tell your sweat glands to release moisture, and in hyperhidrosis those glands are switched on far more often than you need. The treatment interrupts the nerve signals that trigger the sweat glands in the treated area, so the glands no longer receive the message to work overtime and produce much less moisture.
Only the overactive glands in the chosen area are settled, so the rest of your body keeps cooling itself as normal. Placement and even coverage are what turn that into reliable, all-over dryness, which is why this is a careful medical technique rather than a quick fix. Most appointments are complete within about thirty minutes.
“People are often surprised how much sweating has been quietly running their choices, from the colour of their shirt to where they sit in a room. Giving that control back is the part of this treatment I enjoy most.”
Dr Mattia Parducci
Before treatment begins, Dr Mattia reviews your symptoms, medical history and any antiperspirants or treatments you have already tried. This confirms hyperhidrosis treatment is right for you and identifies exactly which area needs treating.
He cleanses the treatment area and applies a topical anaesthetic to keep you comfortable, then maps out even injection points across the area so coverage is uniform.
A series of small, precise injections is placed evenly across the targeted area. Careful spacing is what produces all-over dryness without affecting nearby structures, and most people feel only mild discomfort.
Straight afterwards, Dr Mattia checks the area for even coverage and gives you tailored aftercare advice. Any small marks at the injection sites or a light feeling of fullness settle quickly.
Early signs of reduced sweating usually begin within two to four days, with the full effect becoming noticeable over one to two weeks as the glands settle.
Dryness typically lasts several months before sweating gradually returns. A follow-up session once the effect begins to wear off keeps you comfortable and in control.
Every treatment begins with a proper consultation. Dr Mattia looks at where and how much you sweat before deciding whether to treat and how to plan the injections. Here is how a typical visit unfolds.
Arrive with the area clean and free of strong deodorant or perfume if you can. Let Dr Mattia know about any medication or recent treatments when you book, and try to avoid intense exercise right before your appointment.
It is calmer and quicker than most people expect. Dr Mattia cleanses the area, applies a topical anaesthetic and places a series of small injections evenly across it. Most people find it comfortable, and the appointment is usually complete within about thirty minutes.
You can return to normal daily activities straight away, including work or gentle movement. Just avoid intense exercise and hot environments for the first twenty-four hours, and hold off on strong deodorants or active skincare until the skin settles.
Hyperhidrosis treatment is a medical procedure, which means the person holding the needle matters at least as much as the treatment. At Cannelle that person is always Dr Mattia Parducci. He assesses you, plans your treatment and delivers it himself, from the first question to the final check.
What you pay depends on the area treated and how active your sweat glands are. The underarms are the most common area, though hands, feet and the face can also be treated. Guide pricing:

Hyperhidrosis treatment and anti-wrinkle injections use the same precise injection technique to solve very different concerns. One calms the glands behind excessive sweating so you stay dry; the other relaxes the muscles that create expression lines so the skin above them softens. If you grind your teeth or want a slimmer jawline, masseter treatment works on the same principle. Dr Mattia can talk through which of these fits your goals at your consultation.
The questions we hear most before booking hyperhidrosis treatment, from how it works and how it feels through to results and aftercare.
It reduces overactive sweat glands in the treated area by interrupting the nerve signals that trigger them. With less signalling, the glands produce far less moisture, so you feel noticeably drier and more comfortable while the rest of your body keeps cooling itself as normal.
Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating beyond what your body needs to cool itself. It often affects the underarms, hands, feet or face and can persist whatever the weather. Because it is a medical concern, Dr Mattia assesses you first and plans the right approach for your case.
The underarms are the most common area, and treatment can also target the hands, feet and face wherever sweat glands are highly active. For jaw slimming or teeth grinding, see masseter treatment, and for expression lines, see anti-wrinkle injections.
Most people feel only mild discomfort. Dr Mattia applies a topical anaesthetic before the injections to keep you comfortable, and the appointment is usually complete within about thirty minutes.
Early signs of reduced sweating usually begin within two to four days, with the full effect becoming noticeable over one to two weeks as the glands settle.
Dryness typically lasts several months before sweating gradually returns. A follow-up session once the effect begins to wear off keeps you dry and comfortable.
Yes. Only the overactive glands in the treated area are calmed, so the rest of your body’s natural cooling system continues to work exactly as before.
There is very little. You may notice small marks at the injection sites or a light feeling of fullness, and these settle quickly, so most people return to work and daily life the same day.
Yes. It is a well established medical treatment for excessive sweating. Delivered by a doctor after a full assessment, it is a safe and effective option, and Dr Mattia carries out that assessment himself before treating.
It is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for people with certain neuromuscular conditions. Dr Mattia carries out a full medical assessment at consultation to confirm treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
