Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. It can affect specific areas like the palms, feet, underarms, or face, or be generalized across the body. This condition can interfere with daily life, social interactions, and confidence.
Hyperhidrosis can be grouped into two broad types:
Primary hyperhidrosis usually starts earlier in life and tends to affect specific areas, like underarms, hands, feet, or the face. It is not caused by another medical problem. It is thought to involve overactive nerve signals to sweat glands.
Secondary hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating due to an underlying cause, such as certain medications, hormonal changes, infections, or other health conditions. In these cases, treatment often includes addressing the root issue.
Our treatment combines medical expertise and advanced technology to control excessive sweating and improve quality of life.
