    HYPERHYDROSIS

Hyperhydrosis for underarm sweating

Severe underarm sweating is a medical condition known as severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis, which involves overactive sweat glands. Sweat is your body’s temperature regulator. In severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis, sweating significantly exceeds the body’s normal requirements for cooling.

Excessive sweating due to hyperhydrosis forces men and women to change their clothes every few hours, limits personal style, ruins fabrics, and erodes self-confidence. Our Talent can provide injectable treatment for excessive sweating, and have considerable experience in dealing with hyperhidrosis from the most common areas of the underarms, palms, forehead to even more complicated areas such as upper lip, nose, cheeks and feet.

Excessive sweating is embarrassing. It stains clothes, ruins romance, and complicates business and social interactions. In severe cases, excess sweat can have serious practical consequences as well, making it hard for people who suffer from it to hold a pen, grip a car steering wheel, or shake hands.

COMMON QUESTIONS

The procedure is relatively straightforward. A small volume of botulinum toxin is approved for severe underarm sweating when topical agents don’t work. Botulinum toxin treatment helps control this condition by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands don’t receive chemical signals, the severe sweating stops.

Axilla is an anatomy term that refers to the underarm or armpit area. Axillary hyperhidrosis refers to excessive underarm sweating. The exact cause of the condition is disputed. Some experts feel it has to do with the size of the sweat glands, some feel it is related to over-activity of the sweat glands and others feel it is stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system.
