FAQs

How does Hyperhidrosis treatment work?

Hyperhidrosis draws on the same mechanics as anti-wrinkle treatment. Treatment is a series of neuromodulating solutions designed to stop the brain from communicating to the sweat glands that the body is required to sweat. During the period in which treatment takes effect, the body won’t produce excess sweat, nor will there be any “backlog” of sweat once the effects have worn off.

Can treatment target any area that produces excess sweat?

Hyperhidrosis treatment isn’t just for the sweat glands under your arms. It can also be used to reduce sweat production at sites such as the palms of your hands, feet, and face.

Why do I sweat so much?

There are two types of hyperhidrosis:

Primary Hyperhidrosis: is characterised by a genetic predisposition to excessive sweating and generally manifests during childhood.

Secondary Hyperhidrosis: due to an underlying medical condition such as anxiety, diabetes, or use of certain medications/coming off certain medications.

During your consultation, Dr Ayesha will diagnose the reason for your hyperhidrosis before confirming if treatment is suitable.
