Understanding Hyperhidrosis

What is Hyperhidrosis? 

Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating that is beyond what the body needs to regulate temperature. It can affect specific areas like the palms, underarms, face, or feet, or occur throughout the body. This condition often impacts daily activities and can affect emotional well-being.

Causes of Excessive Sweating

Hyperhidrosis results from overactive sweat glands and can be classified in two categories:

  • Primary - without an underlying medical cause
  • Secondary - linked to conditions such as thyroid issues, diabetes, or certain medications

Symptoms and Diagnosis

Symptoms include visible sweating that soaks through clothing or drips off the skin, even in cool environments. Diagnosis typically involves a thorough medical history review and tests, such as a starch-iodine test, to determine the severity of the condition.

Treatment Options

Explore the wide range of treatment options available to effectively manage hyperhidrosis. From topical solutions to advanced procedures like Injectables and surgical interventions, our tailored approaches ensure you find the best fit for your needs. Learn more about how we can help you regain confidence and control. 

Topical Treatments

Prescription antiperspirants and creams containing aluminum chloride are often the first line of defense against excessive sweating.

Oral Medications

Medications that regulate sweating by blocking the nerve signals to sweat glands can be effective for some patients.

Injectables Injections

Injectables is an FDA-approved treatment for hyperhidrosis. It works by temporarily blocking the nerves that trigger sweat production, offering long-lasting relief.

Surgical Options

For severe cases, surgical interventions such as sweat gland removal or sympathectomy may be considered. These are usually reserved for patients who haven’t responded to other treatments.
