Excessive Sweating
Hyperhidrosis Treatment
Contrary to popular belief, excessive sweating – hyperhidrosis – is surprisingly common. In fact, it’s estimated that somewhere in the region of 2% to 3% of adults have hyperhidrosis to one extent or another. In most instances, excessive sweating affects the underarms, palms of the hands or soles of the feet. Nevertheless, it’s possible for hyperhidrosis to affect any part of the body and to strike men and women alike at any age for no specific reason.
Although neurologic, endocrine, infectious, and other systemic diseases can sometimes cause hyperhidrosis, the vast majority of cases of hyperhidrosis have no specific cause and are technically harmless. Nevertheless, excessive sweating can be detrimental and life-affecting in more advanced cases. If you want to tackle hyperhidrosis effectively and without invasive surgery, contact an HSA Dermal Clinic team member today to organise a thorough consultation. We’re standing by to take your call.
Botox Injections for Excessive Sweating
When it comes to cases of excessive sweating, the most appropriate hyperhidrosis treatment is determined by first analysing the extent and possible cause of the problem. In many instances, excessive sweating can be effectively reduced through the use of higher-strength topicals and antiperspirants. If more advanced hyperhidrosis treatment is required, the problem can be addressed using Botox injections to effectively disable the glands that produce the sweat.
On a more permanent basis, excessive sweating can be eliminated entirely through laser hyperhidrosis treatment. This is a process that utilises cutting-edge laser technology to destroy or disable the problematic sweat glands, preventing the production of sweat indefinitely.
In all instances, there really is no need to allow your confidence and life quality to be affected by excessive sweating. To discuss the most appropriate treatment options in more detail, contact a member of the HSA Dermal Clinic today to arrange your consultation.
