Hyperhidrosis Treatment
HYPERHIDROSIS
Why You Sweat Even at Rest
Why are you sweating like you just ran a marathon—even when you’re sitting at your desk? If you’re constantly soaked, leaving wet marks on clothes or struggling with sweaty palms and feet, you may be dealing with hyperhidrosis.
Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating beyond what the body needs to cool itself. Sweat glands become overactive, commonly affecting the underarms, palms, soles, and sometimes the scalp, forehead, or groin—usually on both sides equally.
Who Is More Likely to Have Hyperhidrosis?
Symptoms include visible sweating, constant dampness, odor, clothing stains, skin irritation, and recurrent fungal infections—all of which can seriously impact confidence.
Our Hyperhidrosis Treatment Options
BOTOX Injections: BOTOX blocks nerve signals to sweat glands, significantly reducing sweating for 4–6 months with no surgery or downtime.
Laser Therapy: Targeted laser treatment destroys overactive sweat glands, providing permanent reduction in treated areas such as the underarms.
Prescription Medications: Oral medications may be used for severe or widespread sweating to reduce sweat production throughout the body.
Iontophoresis: A low electrical current delivered through water temporarily disables sweat glands—especially effective for sweaty palms and soles.
The best treatment depends on where you sweat, how severe it is, and your lifestyle. Underarms respond well to BOTOX or laser, palms and soles to iontophoresis, and widespread sweating may require medication.
If sweating is controlling your life, it doesn’t have to. At Atmos Derm, our dermatologists create personalized treatment plans to help you stay dry, confident, and comfortable again.
