The human body contains more than three million sweat glands, which play an essential role in regulating body temperature. These glands release sweat that evaporates from the skin, allowing heat to dissipate. In some people, the sweat glands can become overactive and produce more sweat than is needed for temperature control. This is often referred to as primary hyperhidrosis and can affect specific areas such as the underarms, palms, or soles of the feet.
Excessive sweating can be a source of discomfort and may impact day-to-day activities, particularly in warmer climates where underarm sweat marks are more noticeable.
There are treatment options available that work by targeting the nerve signals that activate sweat glands, which may reduce how much sweat is produced in the treated area. It is important to note that these treatments are not a cure but can be considered as part of a management plan. The effects vary between individuals, and outcomes depend on factors such as the treatment area and individual physiology.
All clients are required to attend a one-on-one consultation before commencing any treatment that may involve a prescriptive medication. Each consultation is scheduled for a minimum of 45 minutes, providing time for a thorough assessment and discussion.
During your consultation, our team will take the time to understand your concerns, review your medical history, and discuss how overactive sweat glands may be affecting you. This process helps us provide clear information about which treatment options may be appropriate for your individual situation.
We welcome questions and encourage you to bring along anything you’d like to discuss — your consultation is the ideal opportunity to explore your concerns in detail.
