Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition where you produce more sweat that normal.
It can be primary, where there is no identifiable cause; or secondary, where it results from another condition or medication side effect.
Excessive sweating treatments are a simple procedure that can be done by a doctor or nurse. The specialties that usually perform this treatment are dermatologists, or more commonly a cosmetic doctor.
Seeing a cosmetic doctor is advantaageous, because it is usually lower cost, does not require a GP referral and there is a much shorter waitlist compared to a specialist Dermatologist.
We can treat excessive sweating in many areas of the body, including:
- Face
- Forehead
- Brow
- Scalp
- Nape of neck
- Upper lip
- Underarms
- Hands
- Groin
Treating excessive sweating with scientifically proven options is low risk. Most side effects are rare, temporary, and go away if treating is stopped.
There is often no known reason for excessive sweating. Primary hyperhidrosis is characterised by excessive sweating above and beyond what would be considered normal due to overactive sweat glands where no cause can be found.
Secondary hyperhidrosis describes excessive sweating with an identifiable cause or medical condition. This may include, among other things, medical diseases like thyroid, diabetes, and neurological problems. If you have any concerning symptoms or sweat on one side or at night, then you should see your local doctor for an assessment.
Some cases of hyperhidrosis are genetic, while others are acquired. Medical causes of hyperhidrosis should be excluded before sweat reduction treatment.
