Understanding Primary & Secondary Hyperhidrosis
Excessive sweating is a recognised medical condition known as primary (focal) hyperhidrosis. This occurs when the body’s sweat glands are overactive, producing perspiration that significantly exceeds what is required for normal temperature regulation.
Secondary (generalised) hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating caused by another medical condition, such as:
- Diabetes
- Infections
- Thyroid disease
- Hormonal changes

Common Hyperhidrosis Consultation Questions
During your consultation, your practitioner can explain, at a high level, how treatment may work to help manage excessive sweating. This discussion focuses on how sweat gland activity can be influenced by nerve signalling.
Your practitioner will assess your concerns, review relevant medical history, and determine whether this approach may be clinically appropriate for you. Detailed information is provided privately during your consultation to ensure it is accurate, appropriate, and tailored to your individual circumstances.
Safety and suitability for any treatment are determined on an individual basis. During a personalised consultation, your practitioner will review your medical history and assess factors specific to you to determine whether a treatment is clinically appropriate.
Because suitability and risks vary between individuals, detailed information about potential side effects, risks, and aftercare is not provided publicly. This information is discussed privately during your consultation, ensuring it is accurate, relevant, and tailored to your personal circumstances. Your practitioner will also answer any questions you have to support informed decision-making based on professional clinical guidance.
Hyperhydrosis is a disorder characterised by excessive uncontrollable sweating in excess of the amount required to regulate body temperature. Hyperhydrosis has no discernible cause and may involve the axillae (armpits), palms (hands), soles (feet), face, and groin.
