Hyperhidrosis – treatment of excessive sweating
Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating. It can occur in normal everyday situations, as well as in stressful or nervous conditions. Hyperhidrosis can affect different parts of the body, but most often it affects the palms, armpits, feet, and other areas. This leads to physical discomfort and embarrassment, significantly spoils the appearance and quality of clothing (in the case of axillary localization), and can greatly affect the psychological state of a person, causing feelings of embarrassment and inferiority.
Stages of treatment of hyperhidrosis
Consultation with a dermatologist. After diagnosis and confirmation of the diagnosis, the optimal treatment option is selected.
If conservative methods (antiperspirants) are ineffective, more radical treatment, such as botulinum toxin injections, may be offered.
Surgical treatment of hyperhidrosis can include a sympathetic denervation procedure, when the signals that cause excessive sweating are blocked, or radical surgery to remove the sweat glands.

How the session goes in our clinic
At first, in our clinic, we perform a special iodine-starch test to more accurately determine the places of maximum localization of the sweat glands.
After that, an application anesthetic (cream) is applied to the areas of hyperhidrosis for 20-30 minutes to reduce pain from the injection (there are quite a few of them – about 30-40 in each axillary area).
The actual botulinum toxin injection is quick, with a minimum of discomfort.
After the procedure, the patient can immediately return to a normal lifestyle.
