Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is more than just an inconvenience; it's a condition that can significantly impact daily life, causing discomfort and social anxiety. This condition can be either primary, with no identifiable cause but often triggered by factors like stress or heat, or secondary, stemming from an underlying health issue or medication. Primary Hyperhidrosis typically affects the palms, feet, and underarms, starting in adolescence and can persist throughout life. The exact cause remains unclear, though it's thought to involve overactivity in the sweat glands.
Treatment options for Hyperhidrosis range from topical solutions and wipes to oral medications that reduce sweat production across the body. For more persistent cases, we offer botulinum toxin injections to temporarily block sweat production in targeted areas. Effectively managing Hyperhidrosis can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
