Excessive sweating
When antiperspirant is not enough and you plan outfits around sweat, there is a medical name for it and a treatment that helps.
What you might be noticing.
Damp underarms within an hour of getting dressed, even in cool weather. Clammy palms before meetings. Shirts you no longer wear because of marks. Many people assume it is just how they are and never mention it to anyone.
Why it happens.
Hyperhidrosis is overactive sweat glands driven by nerve signals, not a hygiene issue and not always linked to heat or exercise. It often runs in families and commonly affects the underarms, palms and feet.
How Crystal can help.
What to expect at your consultation
Treatment is a series of tiny injections across the area, most often the underarms, and takes about twenty minutes. Reduced sweating typically starts within a week or two and lasts for months. Crystal will discuss whether the treatment fits your situation and, for severe cases, whether a physician referral is also worth having.
Common questions.
Does it hurt?
The injections are shallow and quick. Most people describe a brief pinch. Crystal can use a numbing cream for sensitive areas.
How long does it last?
Results commonly last four to six months, sometimes longer. Treatment can be repeated as needed.
Can palms and feet be treated?
Yes, though the underarms are the most common area. Crystal will discuss what is appropriate for you at the consultation.
