Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating)
What is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a condition marked by excessive sweating in specific areas, such as the armpits, forehead, palms, or feet. Often genetic, it can disrupt daily life and lead to social discomfort.
Understanding Hyperhidrosis
This condition results in abnormal, unpredictable sweating that can impact social interactions and daily activities. Axillary hyperhidrosis (armpits) and palmar hyperhidrosis (palms) are common forms. About 1% of the population experiences hyperhidrosis due to genetic factors. Our consultants provide minimally invasive treatments to address sweat production effectively.
