Sweating
EXCESSIVE SWEATING IS CALLED HYPERHIDROSIS AND CAN BE STOPPED WITH MEDICAL TREATMENTS
What is Hyperhidrosis?
Excessive sweating, medically known as hyperhidrosis, involves overactive sweat glands. When sweating becomes excessive, it can be embarrassing, uncomfortable and disabling.
Excessive sweating can disrupt many aspects of a person's life, from career choice and recreational activities to relationships, emotional well-being and self-esteem.
Hyperhidrosis is a condition that affects millions of people around the world. Uncontrolled sweating can occur in various parts of the body including hands, feet or underarms.
How is Hyperhidrosis treated?
Hyperhidrosis is treated with medications that temporarily blocks the release of a chemical that signals perspiration helping to reduce excessive sweating. This can be used to treat excessive underarm, hand or facial sweating by targeting sweating at its source.
Once treated, the medicine enters the specific glands in the body responsible for excessive sweating and you will stop producing excessive sweat for up to 9 months.
Treatments last for 8-18 months and are performed by one of our experienced medical professionals after a personalised medical consultation.
