I think I'm starring to understand why people like extreme sports.
I did an axillary brachial plexus block today for the first time after a really long time and while it's one of the easier ones to do, my track record is... a bit debatable still.
So I did it and the lady kept moving her arm as if nothing changed, every time I asked her how she felt she said nothing changed and I felt SO bad, thought I didn't get it, felt this giant lump in my stomach - basically how you feel when you're waiting for exam results and every classmate you've talked to got different answers than you 😅
And then they cut into her skin and she didn't as much as peep and I did a little celebratory dance.
Now I'm grumpy that I'm doing cardiac surgery tomorrow and not more peripheral blocks. Because that is an extreme sport. You're scared until the scalpel starts cutting and then euphoria comes :') Hopefully.

Jane visits a garden which is immediately recognisable as the home of an ardent Australian native plant lover. This intriguing garden has hundreds of native plants thriving on 1/4-acre block at the foothills of Melbourne’s Dandenong Ranges.
Bev Fox has planted natives in every space available, including the verge. She grows Isotoma from seed and has a very rare white-flowering one. “They're just potluck what colour comes up. I got a surprise when I saw that one.” Dotted throughout the garden is brilliantly blue Veronia which Bev propagates by cuttings in autumn. Paper daisies and a broad mix of other colourful flowers make a lovely entrance to the home.
Flowering mugga ironbark and peppermint gums tower over the garden and are loved by the birds. They are the only original plantings from when Bev began re-designing in 2003. “Apart from the trees, it’s all new... It was a bare palate,” says Bev. The new garden is designed to attract wildlife to the property, but also provides Bev with solace of her own. “I lost my husband in 2000, my brother in 2001 and my mother in 2002. In between all those my two dogs died, and I just thought I need something new in my life. I decided a new garden would be helpful and that's what keeps me really happy all the time.... You get into your own happy place in a garden, I love it. Even when the birds are noisy.”
It's easy to appreciate the bushland that Bev has created. The variety and repetition of species in her garden gives it a natural feel, which Bev hopes recreates the ambience of the Australian bush. The back garden is shaded and there are enticing curved paths made of gravel with large gums casting cool shade over the many shrubs and pots. It's a very spacious backyard but it’s filled with plants. Bev says she’s achieved this through layering. “I’ve got very small things right along all the edges, then (the next layer is) up to about a metre high, and then (the next layer) a bit higher. The big tree at the back, I’ve cut the lower branches off to give these room to grow and keep it nice and bushy looking.” The layering lets light in and creates interest all year.
Bev says, “I think it's a stroll garden. It’s a garden to be in, not to sit back and look at.” Her favourite plants to visit include the native mint family Prostanthera and oak-leaved Thomasia. Being an avid plant collector, Bev likes to propagate through seeds and cuttings to fill up her garden.
To strike a cutting of Westringea ‘Violet Skies’, Bev says, “It’s easy.”
1. Choose firm healthy stems to take your cutting from.
2. Strip the bottom half of the leaves off the stem and pinch out the soft tip. Eliminating leaf material helps the stem focus on root growth.
3. Ensure the base of the stem has a clean cut, then dip into a rooting hormone.
4. Fill a small clean pot with propagation mix. Buy in stores or mix 1/3 perlite: 2/3 peat.
5. Tap soil firmly and create a hole for the cutting to go into.
6. Place the cutting in, press down. Keep moist and warm in a greenhouse for several weeks.
This garden really celebrates the diversity of Australian native plants and shows what can be done when devoted to experimenting. Bev says, “Going out and seeing these plants in the wild is one of the greatest things to do – and I think, ooh, I can grow that at home. It’s lovely.”
Featured Plants:
SHOWY ISOTOME - Isotoma axillaris
PAPER DAISY - Xerochrysum bracteatum cv.
MUGGA IRONBARK - Eucalyptus sp.
- Veronica arenaria

How can excessive underarm sweating be effectively treated?
Tumblr media
Excessive underarm sweating, medically known as axillary hyperhidrosis, can significantly impact daily life and self-confidence. Fortunately, there are several effective treatments available to help individuals regain sweat-free confidence and improve their quality of life.
One of the first steps in managing excessive underarm sweating is the use of clinical-strength antiperspirants, which contain higher concentrations of aluminum chloride. These products work by blocking sweat glands to reduce moisture. However, for some people, antiperspirants alone may not provide sufficient relief.
When over-the-counter solutions are ineffective, medical treatments come into play. Botox injections are a popular option; they temporarily block the nerves responsible for activating sweat glands, reducing sweat production for several months. This procedure is minimally invasive and has been approved by the FDA for treating excessive underarm sweating.
In more severe cases, procedures like microwave therapy or surgical options may be recommended. Microwave therapy destroys sweat glands using controlled heat, offering longer-lasting results without surgery. For persistent or extreme cases, a surgical approach, such as sympathectomy or sweat gland removal, may be considered.
Dr. Scott Brenman, a specialist at the Pennsylvania Centre for Plastic Surgery, emphasizes the importance of consulting a qualified professional to determine the best treatment tailored to individual needs. Their expertise ensures safe and effective management of excessive underarm sweating.
For those struggling with this condition, seeking advice from the Pennsylvania Centre for Plastic Surgery can be the first step toward achieving sweat-free confidence and a more comfortable lifestyle.

If you’ve ever felt embarrassed by sweat patches, avoided certain clothes, or cancelled plans because of excessive sweating — you’re not alone. Hyperhidrosis, the medical term for abnormal, excessive sweating, affects an estimated 1 in 20 people in the UK, and it can have a serious impact on confidence, clothing choices, and daily comfort. At Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic London, we understand just how disruptive this condition can be. That’s why we offer a dedicated treatment for hyperhidrosis using Botox — a safe, effective and medically approved method to dramatically reduce sweat production for months at a time. Learn more about the service on our Hyperhidrosis Treatment page. In this detailed guide, we explain what hyperhidrosis is, how Botox works to treat it, and why Mesglo offers one of the most discreet, advanced solutions in London. A Personal Note from the Mesglo Team We know that living with hyperhidrosis isn’t just about the physical symptoms — it’s about how those symptoms make you feel. Whether it’s anxiety before social events, hiding sweat stains under dark clothing, or simply feeling uncomfortable in your own skin, the daily emotional toll can be exhausting. We’ve spoken to clients who avoided handshakes during job interviews. Others who carried extra shirts to weddings. Many who planned their entire wardrobes around their sweat patterns — even in the winter. And the truth is, none of that is something you should just “live with.” At Mesglo, we believe that confidence isn’t a luxury — it’s a basic right. That’s why our hyperhidrosis treatments are more than just a clinical service. They’re an opportunity to help you feel at ease, in control, and more like yourself again. We use medical-grade Botox, carefully mapped injections, and a tailored plan that fits around your life — not the other way around. And we do it discreetly, with empathy, and without judgment. Because we’ve seen what a difference it makes when someone walks out of our clinic knowing they’ll no longer have to worry about something that’s affected them for years. So if you’ve been silently coping with excessive sweating, we want you to know: there is a solution. And it’s simpler, safer, and more empowering than you might think. With care,The Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic Team What Is Hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is a condition where the body produces more sweat than is needed for thermal regulation. It can occur across the entire body or in focal areas, even when you're resting or in cool environments. Common Areas Affected: - Underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis) - Palms of the hands - Soles of the feet - Face and scalp For many, hyperhidrosis can impact daily life — from avoiding certain colours or fabrics to coping with social anxiety and constantly managing personal hygiene. According to the British Association of Dermatologists, primary hyperhidrosis often begins in childhood or adolescence and persists for years without a clear underlying medical cause. How Botox Works for Excessive Sweating While Botox is more famously used for wrinkle reduction, it's also a licensed medical treatment for hyperhidrosis in the UK. When injected into the sweat-prone areas, Botox temporarily blocks the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands. Here’s how it works: - Sweat glands receive fewer signals - Sweat production in the treated area stops or is dramatically reduced - Normal temperature regulation continues via untreated areas The result? A significant and often life-changing reduction in sweating, especially in the underarms, hands or feet. Botox for hyperhidrosis is MHRA-approved in the UK and FDA-approved in the United States for treating underarm sweating. What to Expect at Mesglo We tailor your treatment to the area and severity of your symptoms, offering a safe, sterile, and discreet experience. Step-by-Step Process: - In-depth consultation: We map the sweating pattern and identify key areas for injection. - Preparation: A numbing cream may be applied, especially for more sensitive areas like hands or soles. - Precision injections: Using a very fine needle, Botox is placed across the treatment zone in multiple micro-injections (takes 10–20 minutes). - Post-care: You’ll receive full aftercare advice. We recommend avoiding vigorous activity and heat exposure for 24–48 hours. When Do Results Appear — and How Long Do They Last? - Initial results: 3–5 days after treatment - Peak dryness: Around 2 weeks post-injection - Duration: 4 to 6 months for underarms; up to 9 months for hands and feet Many clients report a dramatic improvement in lifestyle and confidence, including better clothing choices, reduced stress, and more social freedom. Is Botox Right for You? Botox for hyperhidrosis may be the right solution if: - You sweat excessively in specific areas despite using antiperspirants - You’ve tried prescription creams or oral medication with limited results - Sweating affects your clothing, confidence, or career - You’re looking for a clinically backed, non-invasive treatment This treatment is ideal for both men and women and works on all skin types. Why Choose Mesglo for Hyperhidrosis Treatment? Mesglo is trusted by clients across London for a reason: - We use only licensed Botox from reputable pharmaceutical providers - All injections are performed by trained medical practitioners with deep knowledge of facial and body anatomy - Our approach is discreet, efficient, and results-led - We offer flexible maintenance plans to keep results lasting year-round We understand the emotional and physical impact hyperhidrosis can have. That’s why we prioritise comfort, privacy, and results in every treatment we deliver. For more detailed treatment info and pricing, visit our Hyperhidrosis Treatment London page.

Underarm Botox for Excessive Sweating: A Comprehensive Guide
Tumblr media
Excessive underarm sweating, medically known as axillary hyperhidrosis, can be both physically and emotionally challenging. Fortunately, underarm Botox injections offer a promising solution for many sufferers. In this guide, we’ll explore what underarm Botox is, its benefits, important pre-treatment tips, potential risks, and side effects, and how long the treatment lasts.
What is Underarm Botox?
Underarm Botox involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin type A into the sweat glands located in the underarm area. This treatment works by blocking the nerve signals responsible for triggering sweat production, thereby reducing excessive perspiration. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically performed in a medical office setting. It’s a well-regarded option for those who have not found relief from topical antiperspirants or other conservative measures.
Benefits of Underarm Botox
Underarm Botox offers several advantages for people struggling with hyperhidrosis:
Effective Sweat Reduction
Improved Confidence
Minimally Invasive
Targeted Treatment
Long-Lasting Results
What Not To Do Before Having Underarm Botox for Hyperhidrosis
Proper preparation ensures that your Botox treatment is as effective and comfortable as possible.
What Are the Potential Risks and Side Effects of Botox for Sweating?
While underarm Botox is considered safe and effective, it’s important to be aware of potential risks and side effects:
Injection Site Reactions
Temporary Weakness
Flu-like Symptoms
Allergic Reactions
Compensatory Sweating
How Long Does Botox Underarm Treatment Last?
The effects of underarm Botox injections are not permanent, but they do offer long-lasting relief. Most patients report that the benefits of treatment last between 6 to 12 months. Over time, nerve signals gradually return, and sweating may resume. When this happens, additional treatments can be administered to maintain dryness. The duration of the treatment’s effectiveness can vary based on individual factors, such as the severity of hyperhidrosis and personal physiology.
If you’re ready to experience the benefits of underarm Botox and regain control over excessive sweating, Gables iSmile is here to help. With expert care and a commitment to patient comfort, Gables iSmile offers personalized treatment plans designed to address your hyperhidrosis effectively.

Botox for Sweating & Private Shingles Vaccine in Leeds
Botox for Sweating – Private Clinic in Leeds
Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, can be a distressing condition that affects daily life, confidence, and comfort. While sweating is a natural bodily function, excessive sweating can be difficult to manage with over-the-counter treatments like antiperspirants. If you struggle with persistent sweating, Botox for sweating at a private clinic in Leeds may be the solution you need.
Tumblr media
How Does Botox for Sweating Work?
Botox, or botulinum toxin, is widely used for cosmetic treatments, but it is also an effective medical treatment for hyperhidrosis. It works by temporarily blocking the nerves that stimulate sweat glands, reducing excessive sweating in targeted areas.
Areas Treated with Botox for Sweating
Underarms (Axillary Hyperhidrosis) – The most common area treated with Botox for excessive sweating.
Palms of Hands – Helps individuals who experience sweaty palms, which can be particularly inconvenient for social and professional interactions.
Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis) – Reduces excessive sweating in the soles of the feet, preventing discomfort and odor.
Forehead & Scalp – Ideal for people who sweat excessively on the face and hairline.
Benefits of Botox for Excessive Sweating
Long-Lasting Results – Most patients experience relief for 4 to 6 months.
Quick & Minimally Invasive – The procedure takes around 20-30 minutes with no downtime.
Improves Confidence – No more worrying about sweat stains or discomfort.
Safe & FDA-Approved – Botox is a clinically tested and safe treatment for hyperhidrosis.
Where to Get Botox for Sweating in Leeds?
Several private clinics in Leeds offer Botox for sweating. These clinics have experienced practitioners who specialize in treating hyperhidrosis. You can book a consultation to assess your needs and determine the best treatment plan. The price for Botox for sweating typically ranges from £300 to £600, depending on the treatment area and clinic.
Private Shingles Vaccine
Shingles is a painful viral infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus responsible for chickenpox. Once a person has had chickenpox, the virus remains dormant in the body and can reactivate later in life as shingles. The best way to prevent shingles and its complications is through vaccination.
Who Should Consider the Private Shingles Vaccine?
People Over 50 – The risk of shingles increases with age, making vaccination essential for older adults.
Individuals with Weakened Immune Systems – Those with conditions like cancer, HIV, or autoimmune diseases are at higher risk of severe shingles.
Anyone Who Wants Protection – If you’ve had chickenpox, you’re at risk for shingles. The vaccine helps reduce the likelihood of an outbreak.
Benefits of the Shingles Vaccine
Reduces Risk of Developing Shingles – The vaccine lowers the chances of getting shingles significantly.
Prevents Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN) – PHN is a long-term nerve pain condition that can follow shingles. The vaccine reduces this risk.
Safe & Effective – The shingles vaccine is clinically tested and recommended by health professionals.
Types of Shingles Vaccines Available
Shingrix – A newer, highly effective vaccine that requires two doses. It offers over 90% protection and is preferred over older vaccines.
Zostavax – A single-dose vaccine that provides some protection but is less effective than Shingrix.
Where to Get a Private Shingles Vaccine in Leeds?
The private shingles vaccine is available at select private health clinics, travel clinics, and vaccination centers in Leeds. Since the NHS only offers the shingles vaccine to specific age groups, getting a private vaccine ensures you don’t have to wait or miss out on protection.
The cost of a private shingles vaccine typically ranges from £150 to £300 per dose, depending on the clinic and vaccine type.
Conclusion
If you are looking for Botox for sweating at a private clinic in Leeds, or want to protect yourself against shingles with a private vaccine, Leeds has excellent private healthcare options. Book a consultation today and take proactive steps toward better health and confidence.
Would you like me to include a list of specific clinics in Leeds?

Breast Cancer Treatment in India
Breast cancer is a significant global health concern, with its prevalence steadily increasing over the years. In India, the landscape of breast cancer treatment has undergone remarkable advancements, making it a sought-after destination for quality health care at an affordable cost. With its multimodal approach, advanced facilities, and focus on patient-centered care, India exemplifies how accessible and effective treatment can transform lives. This article delves into breast cancer treatment in India, exploring the modalities, cost considerations, and specialized care available, particularly in regions like Tamil Nadu. Understanding these aspects empowers patients to make informed decisions while navigating their treatment journey.
Understanding Breast Cancer Treatment
Breast cancer treatment in India is tailored to the specific needs of patients, ensuring optimal outcomes and a higher quality of life.
Multimodal Approach
A multimodal strategy is the cornerstone of breast cancer care, combining therapies to ensure comprehensive treatment.
Combination of Therapies: Surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and hormone therapy are used based on cancer stage and subtype.
Individualized Plans: Factors like tumor size, hormone receptor status, and genetic markers guide the treatment plan for precision and efficacy.
 Surgery
Surgery is a pivotal aspect of breast cancer management.
Lumpectomy: This breast-conserving surgery removes the tumor along with a margin of healthy tissue.
Mastectomy: For advanced cases, the entire breast may be removed. Options like skin- or nipple-sparing techniques improve cosmetic outcomes.
Lymph Node Assessment: Sentinel lymph node biopsy or axillary dissection helps determine the spread of cancer.
Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy
These therapies play vital roles in eradicating cancer cells and reducing recurrence risks.
Chemotherapy: Administered orally or intravenously, it destroys cancer cells. It may be used before surgery (neoadjuvant) to shrink tumors or after surgery (adjuvant) to eliminate residual cancer cells.
Radiation Therapy: Advanced techniques like intensity-modulated (IMRT) and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) deliver precise, high-energy beams to affected areas, sparing healthy tissue.
Targeted and Hormone Therapy
These advanced therapies focus on specific cancer sub types.
Targeted Therapy: Drugs like trastuzumab target proteins like HER2 that promote cancer growth.
Hormone Therapy: For hormone receptor-positive cancers, medications such as tamoxifen block the effects of estrogen or progesterone.
Cost Considerations of Breast Cancer Treatment in India
India is a global hub for affordable, high-quality breast cancer treatment, attracting patients worldwide.
Breast Cancer Treatment Cost in India
The comprehensive treatment cost, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, ranges from $3,000 to $10,000, depending on the hospital and complexity. India's cost efficiency stems from the availability of generic drugs and skilled professionals.
Radiation Therapy Costs
Radiation therapy costs in India are particularly affordable, ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 for an entire course. State-of-the-art facilities and well-trained oncologists ensure quality care.
Specialized Breast Cancer Treatment in Tamil Nadu
Tamil Nadu is a leading region for specialized breast cancer care, combining advanced treatments with holistic patient support.
Access to Specialized Centers
Tamil Nadu’s world-class cancer treatment centers offer:
Advanced Diagnostics: Tools like PET-CT scans, 3D mammography, and genetic testing enable precise diagnoses.
Comprehensive Care: These centers provide surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and rehabilitation under one roof for seamless care.
Integrative Approach to Care
The state's healthcare system emphasizes both physical and emotional well-being.
Holistic Therapies: Practices like yoga, meditation, and nutrition counseling enhance recovery.
Support Services: Psychological counseling, peer support, and palliative care ensure a well-rounded healing process.
Breast Cancer Causes and Risk Factors
Understanding risk factors helps in prevention and early detection of breast cancer.
Genetic and Family History
Genetic Mutations: Inherited mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes significantly increase risk. Genetic testing is valuable for risk assessment.
Family History: A family history of breast cancer increases susceptibility.
Hormonal and Reproductive Factors
Prolonged exposure to estrogen, late menopause, or having a first child after age 30 can elevate risk.
Not breastfeeding or never having a full-term pregnancy also contributes to higher susceptibility.
Lifestyle and Environmental Factors
Lack of physical activity, obesity, and excessive alcohol consumption are modifiable risk factors.
Previous radiation exposure, particularly during adolescence, increases risk.
Prioritizing Breast Health and Regular Check-ups
Proactive measures are crucial for reducing breast cancer mortality through early detection.
 Promoting Breast Health Awareness
Self-Exams: Regular breast self-examinations help women identify unusual changes early.
Mammograms: Annual mammograms for women over 40 significantly enhance early detection rates.
Community Programs: Awareness campaigns encourage timely screenings and dispel myths about breast cancer.
Seeking Professional Guidance
Personalized Care Plans: Consulting healthcare providers ensures treatment is tailored to individual needs.
Collaborative Decision-Making: Engaging in treatment decisions improves satisfaction and outcomes.
Conclusion
India’s progress in breast cancer treatment reflects its dedication to delivering affordable, high-quality healthcare. With advanced therapies, cost efficiency, and specialized care, particularly in Tamil Nadu, the country provides hope to countless patients. By fostering awareness, promoting early detection, and ensuring holistic care, India continues to be a global leader in breast cancer management. The pillars of affordability, innovation, and compassion guide patients through their journey toward recovery and resilience. For more details visit https://breastcancer.hospital/chemo-treatment-for-breast-cancer/#

Do Anti Sweat Injections Work?
Hyperhidrosis injections, also known as anti-sweat injections, are a treatment option for individuals suffering from hyperhidrosis, a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating. These injections typically involve the use of a neurotoxin called Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, which is injected into the affected area to block the nerve signals that trigger sweat production. The injections are most commonly used to treat axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating).
The effectiveness of hyperhidrosis injections can vary from person to person, but many individuals find significant relief from their excessive sweating for about 6 to 12 months following treatment. It is generally considered a safe and minimally invasive procedure. However, it's important to note that the results are temporary, and repeat injections are required to maintain the effects.
While hyperhidrosis injections can be an effective solution for some, they may not be suitable for everyone. It's important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to discuss the potential benefits, risks, and alternative treatments for managing hyperhidrosis.

There is a fracture, I need to fix it...
I want to preface this by saying that this traumatologist is a very good surgeon, but ortho bros will be ortho bros.
There was this one patient with a broken wrist, a bad fracture, according to the X-ray. Due to their comorbidities, putting them under anesthesia would have been pretty high risk, but thank god for regional anesthesia: they got an axillary nerve block and it worked like a charm.
Enter ortho bro.
For the life of him he wouldn't understand why we didn't put the patient under anesthesia, when the whole procedure could have been so much faster (aka not waiting for me to do the nerve block and not waiting for it to set in). And the patient wouldn't have been moving their arm around that way.
He kept muttering louder and louder, that the patient is moving their arm. It was definitely intended for me to hear, but I pretended I didn't. Thing is, patient couldn't move their arm. The nerve block was working, and the sedation helped with the rest. But the patient is moving their arm, he can't operate like this!
It took me pretty long to realise, that he was trying to bend the arm in ways it just simply couldn't bend, according to the laws of physics, so it kept bending back to its natural state. Thus, "moving".
It went on for the rest of the OP (which he finished perfectly by the way, even though it was indeed a very bad fracture). Then came the final X-ray. He was pretty stressed out and started to lose it by then, which lead to the following. Picture this:
Ortho bro is standing with a wood-like, paralysed arm in his hands. He is trying to bend it in an absolutely impossible way once again, and once again, the arm wouldn't obey. He is visibly struggling and looks like he is losing to the laws of physics, so he starts screaming "Stop moving your hand Mr X, believe it or not I'm stronger than you. Do you hear me? I'm stronger!"
Patient was still sedated, thankfully. Me, on the other hand? I was hysterical at this point, had to leave the OR to have a good laugh behind his back.

I started learning regional blocks last week. We do mainly the cervical plexus block and the axillary block, and I’d also like to learn the popliteal block for lower leg surgeries (mainly amputations) as it seems to help really well with phantom pains. It’s actually a lot of fun, I never thought I’d be interested in regional anaesthesia... And I never thought I’d be able to do all this in my current hospital.
From what I’ve heard about anaesthesia residents in other hospitals, they don’t really do central lines very often, epidurals (other than on pregnant women), or regional blocks. Some of them don’t even get to intubate for a long time, relying mainly on LMAs. I... can’t imagine that. Sure, our head consultant literally threw us in at the deep end and it is stressful at times, but six months after starting I am somewhat confident at doing many things myself (and without ultrasound - yes, I know that things like central lines and art lines are supposed to be done under the ultrasound but our head consultant is strictly against that so... You know, what if there was no electricity all of a sudden. Or something.).
I am also... exceedingly tired. This year started with a fucking bang. January has lasted two months at least. The days when I’m not in the OR are extremely tiring, because I still struggle with writing up patients and it takes me a long time sometimes, I’m also on cardioversion duty, and the preop assessment duty (thankfully not alone). All that takes a lot of time. Then someone calls me to start a dialysis (we put together our own dialysis sets so I had to learn that very early), someone else calls me to watch as they’re doing something I haven’t done yet... God forbid there is a tracheostomy to do, then I have to do anaesthesia for that as well. And we’re a TINY hospital compared to others, I have no idea how doctors in other hospitals do it... And if I happen to be in the OR it’s also extremely exhausting, because I am still very new to that so it takes a lot of thinking and doing. (Also - sevorane leaks. That’s enough to make anyone tired.) And now that I’m learning the regional anaesthesia, it takes a lot of energy to focus on that as well.
All in all, I’m not complaining, it’s all very fun and I absolutely love this job. But oh my god I just had to get it out. Also next week I’m starting with the 13hr shifts. Which scares me as well. And I will be even more tired. I don’t know when I’ll get my energy back but seeing other healthcare workers... it might be never :’)

If you’ve ever felt embarrassed by sweat patches, avoided certain clothes, or cancelled plans because of excessive sweating — you’re not alone. Hyperhidrosis, the medical term for abnormal, excessive sweating, affects an estimated 1 in 20 people in the UK, and it can have a serious impact on confidence, clothing choices, and daily comfort. At Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic London, we understand just how disruptive this condition can be. That’s why we offer a dedicated treatment for hyperhidrosis using Botox — a safe, effective and medically approved method to dramatically reduce sweat production for months at a time. Learn more about the service on our Hyperhidrosis Treatment page. In this detailed guide, we explain what hyperhidrosis is, how Botox works to treat it, and why Mesglo offers one of the most discreet, advanced solutions in London. A Personal Note from the Mesglo Team We know that living with hyperhidrosis isn’t just about the physical symptoms — it’s about how those symptoms make you feel. Whether it’s anxiety before social events, hiding sweat stains under dark clothing, or simply feeling uncomfortable in your own skin, the daily emotional toll can be exhausting. We’ve spoken to clients who avoided handshakes during job interviews. Others who carried extra shirts to weddings. Many who planned their entire wardrobes around their sweat patterns — even in the winter. And the truth is, none of that is something you should just “live with.” At Mesglo, we believe that confidence isn’t a luxury — it’s a basic right. That’s why our hyperhidrosis treatments are more than just a clinical service. They’re an opportunity to help you feel at ease, in control, and more like yourself again. We use medical-grade Botox, carefully mapped injections, and a tailored plan that fits around your life — not the other way around. And we do it discreetly, with empathy, and without judgment. Because we’ve seen what a difference it makes when someone walks out of our clinic knowing they’ll no longer have to worry about something that’s affected them for years. So if you’ve been silently coping with excessive sweating, we want you to know: there is a solution. And it’s simpler, safer, and more empowering than you might think. With care,The Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic Team What Is Hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is a condition where the body produces more sweat than is needed for thermal regulation. It can occur across the entire body or in focal areas, even when you're resting or in cool environments. Common Areas Affected: - Underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis) - Palms of the hands - Soles of the feet - Face and scalp For many, hyperhidrosis can impact daily life — from avoiding certain colours or fabrics to coping with social anxiety and constantly managing personal hygiene. According to the British Association of Dermatologists, primary hyperhidrosis often begins in childhood or adolescence and persists for years without a clear underlying medical cause. How Botox Works for Excessive Sweating While Botox is more famously used for wrinkle reduction, it's also a licensed medical treatment for hyperhidrosis in the UK. When injected into the sweat-prone areas, Botox temporarily blocks the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands. Here’s how it works: - Sweat glands receive fewer signals - Sweat production in the treated area stops or is dramatically reduced - Normal temperature regulation continues via untreated areas The result? A significant and often life-changing reduction in sweating, especially in the underarms, hands or feet. Botox for hyperhidrosis is MHRA-approved in the UK and FDA-approved in the United States for treating underarm sweating. What to Expect at Mesglo We tailor your treatment to the area and severity of your symptoms, offering a safe, sterile, and discreet experience. Step-by-Step Process: - In-depth consultation: We map the sweating pattern and identify key areas for injection. - Preparation: A numbing cream may be applied, especially for more sensitive areas like hands or soles. - Precision injections: Using a very fine needle, Botox is placed across the treatment zone in multiple micro-injections (takes 10–20 minutes). - Post-care: You’ll receive full aftercare advice. We recommend avoiding vigorous activity and heat exposure for 24–48 hours. When Do Results Appear — and How Long Do They Last? - Initial results: 3–5 days after treatment - Peak dryness: Around 2 weeks post-injection - Duration: 4 to 6 months for underarms; up to 9 months for hands and feet Many clients report a dramatic improvement in lifestyle and confidence, including better clothing choices, reduced stress, and more social freedom. Is Botox Right for You? Botox for hyperhidrosis may be the right solution if: - You sweat excessively in specific areas despite using antiperspirants - You’ve tried prescription creams or oral medication with limited results - Sweating affects your clothing, confidence, or career - You’re looking for a clinically backed, non-invasive treatment This treatment is ideal for both men and women and works on all skin types. Why Choose Mesglo for Hyperhidrosis Treatment? Mesglo is trusted by clients across London for a reason: - We use only licensed Botox from reputable pharmaceutical providers - All injections are performed by trained medical practitioners with deep knowledge of facial and body anatomy - Our approach is discreet, efficient, and results-led - We offer flexible maintenance plans to keep results lasting year-round We understand the emotional and physical impact hyperhidrosis can have. That’s why we prioritise comfort, privacy, and results in every treatment we deliver. For more detailed treatment info and pricing, visit our Hyperhidrosis Treatment London page. Realistic FAQs About Botox for Sweating Will I stop sweating completely?Only in the treated area — your body will still regulate heat through other parts. Is it painful?Most clients find it very tolerable. Numbing is available, especially for sensitive areas. How soon can I go back to work?Immediately. It’s a true walk-in-walk-out procedure with minimal to no downtime. Is it permanent?No — but with repeat treatments every 6–9 months, dryness can be consistently maintained. Can I get it before a big event or summer holiday?Yes! Ideally, book 2–3 weeks before to enjoy full results in time.
