A hyperhidrosis consultation at Core Aesthetics is an individual clinical assessment for clients experiencing excessive sweating, primarily in the underarm area. Corey Anderson assesses the nature and pattern of sweating, discusses injectable treatment as a prescription option, and determines whether treatment is clinically appropriate for your situation.
Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating beyond what the body requires for normal temperature regulation. It is a medical condition, not a hygiene issue, and its impact on daily life, confidence and professional presentation can be significant. If you have been managing it quietly, a clinical consultation to discuss treatment options is a worthwhile step.
All hyperhidrosis consultations at Core Aesthetics are conducted by Corey Anderson, AHPRA registered nurse (NMW0001047575, registered since January 1996), the sole treating practitioner at the clinic.
“There is no obligation to proceed. The consultation is where the honest conversation happens.”

What the Consultation Covers
The hyperhidrosis consultation at Core Aesthetics begins with a discussion of the nature and pattern of your sweating: the areas affected, the degree of sweating, how long you have experienced it and what impact it has on your daily life. Corey will also review your medical history and any previous treatments you have tried, as some clients have already used clinical strength topical treatments or other approaches before considering injectable treatment.
From there, Corey will assess whether injectable hyperhidrosis treatment is clinically appropriate for your individual situation, explain what the treatment involves, provide realistic information about expected outcomes and duration, and give you a clear picture of the potential risks. There is no obligation to proceed at the consultation.

How Injectable Hyperhidrosis Treatment Works
Injectable hyperhidrosis treatment uses the same class of prescription product as anti wrinkle facial treatment, applied to the sweat glands of the affected area rather than to facial muscles. In the underarm area, a series of small injections are placed across the affected zone to temporarily reduce sweat gland activity. The result is a meaningful reduction in sweating in the treated area. The effect is temporary and duration varies between individuals, though it is typically longer than facial anti wrinkle treatment areas.
Treatment is only appropriate for primary hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating without an underlying medical cause that would be more appropriately managed by a GP or specialist. If there is any possibility of a secondary cause, a GP consultation is also recommended alongside the assessment at Core Aesthetics.
The Impact on Daily Life
Clients who have had effective hyperhidrosis treatment consistently report a significant improvement in daily confidence, comfort with clothing choices and ease in professional situations. If excessive sweating has been affecting your quality of life, it is worth having an honest conversation with a qualified practitioner about your options.
