HYPERHIDROSIS

Hyperhidrosis is a disorder that that defines individuals who sweat more than the body would normally need to maintain optimal temperature. The procedure involved a few tiny injections of a well known muscle relaxant. It has been FDA approved for the treatment of primary axillary hyperhidrosis. While mainly used to treat excessive sweating of the axillae, it may also be used to treat the palms and soles among other areas. It is administered just under the skin using tiny needles. The effects are seen as quickly as 48 hours, but maximum effect is not seen for 2 weeks. Studies have shown anywhere between 50% to 90% improvement in sweating which lasts an average of 6.7 months. The effect of treatment can be immediate or take up to a week, with the average duration of effect after a single treatment being 7 month. Those with neuromuscular disorders such as multiple sclerosis, or bleeding disorders should not undergo treatment. We offer free consultations so book in online today.
