Experience the confidence of sweat-free skin and renewed comfort with our hyperhidrosis treatments

Hyperhidrosis Treatment (Excessive Sweating Treatment)

Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, can be a challenging condition that affects daily life and self-confidence. At PRP London Clinic, we offer effective treatments for hyperhidrosis, helping you manage this condition and regain control over your body. Led by experienced professionals like Dr. Hansel Misquitta, our clinic provides personalized care in a comfortable and confidential environment.

What is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating that goes beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. This condition can affect various parts of the body, including the hands, feet, face, scalp, and armpits. While sweating is a normal bodily function, those with hyperhidrosis experience it in an exaggerated manner, often leading to discomfort, embarrassment, and difficulties in social or professional settings.

There are two main types of hyperhidrosis: primary (focal) hyperhidrosis, which typically affects specific areas of the body, and secondary (generalized) hyperhidrosis, which can be caused by underlying medical conditions or medications. Understanding the type and cause of hyperhidrosis is essential in determining the most effective treatment approach.

Different Types of Hyperhidrosis

Hyperhidrosis can manifest in different parts of the body, each requiring specific treatment approaches. Understanding the types of hyperhidrosis can help you recognize the condition and seek appropriate treatment.

Palmar Hyperhidrosis (Sweaty Hands)

Palmar hyperhidrosis refers to excessive sweating of the hands. This condition can be particularly troublesome as it affects everyday activities like writing, holding objects, and shaking hands. Patients with palmar hyperhidrosis often experience sweat that is visible and can be distressing in social or professional interactions.

 

Hyperhidrosis Feet

Hyperhidrosis of the feet, or plantar hyperhidrosis, leads to excessive sweating on the soles of the feet. This can cause discomfort, increase the risk of foot infections, and contribute to unpleasant odors. Those affected may find it challenging to wear certain types of footwear or to walk barefoot comfortably.

Craniofacial Hyperhidrosis (Sweating from Face, Head, or Scalp)

Craniofacial hyperhidrosis involves excessive sweating of the face, head, or scalp. This type of hyperhidrosis can be particularly embarrassing and difficult to manage, as it is highly visible. It can interfere with makeup application, hairstyles, and lead to social anxiety due to the constant presence of sweat.

Axillary Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweat from Armpits)

Axillary hyperhidrosis is characterized by excessive sweating in the underarm area. This type of hyperhidrosis is commonly associated with noticeable sweat stains on clothing, leading to significant discomfort and self-consciousness. The condition can also contribute to body odor, making it a source of ongoing concern for those affected.

Treatment for Hyperhidrosis

At PRP London Clinic, we offer a range of treatments to manage hyperhidrosis effectively. Depending on the severity and type of hyperhidrosis, treatment options may include:

  • Topical Treatments: Prescription-strength antiperspirants can help reduce sweating in mild cases of hyperhidrosis.
  • Iontophoresis: A treatment that uses electrical currents to temporarily block sweat glands, particularly effective for palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis.
  • Anti-Wrinkle Treatments: These treatments, commonly used for cosmetic purposes, can also be effective in blocking the nerve signals that cause excessive sweating. This option is often used for axillary hyperhidrosis and other localized forms of the condition.
  • Oral Medications: Certain medications can help reduce sweating by affecting the body’s ability to produce sweat, though they may have side effects.
  • Lifestyle Changes: Identifying and avoiding triggers, such as stress or certain foods, can help manage symptoms.

Hyperhidrosis NHS

While the NHS provides some treatments for hyperhidrosis, such as prescription antiperspirants and referrals to specialists, more advanced treatments like anti-wrinkle injections may not always be covered. Many patients seek private treatment to access a broader range of options and receive care from specialists with extensive experience in treating hyperhidrosis.
