Hyperhidrosis Information

Experiencing uncontrollable sweating can feel isolating and frustrating, but you’re not alone.

At Northern Sydney Sweat Clinic, we understand the impact that hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating can have on your daily life. That’s why we’re here to provide you with comprehensive information and effective solutions tailored to your needs.

What is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. It can affect various parts of the body, including the palms, feet, underarms, and face. This condition can disrupt daily activities, cause embarrassment, and significantly impact your quality of life.

What are the Causes and Symptoms?

While the exact cause of hyperhidrosis is not always clear, it often stems from overactive sweat glands or an imbalance in the body’s temperature regulation system. Genetics, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions can also contribute to its development. Symptoms may include persistent sweating even in cool environments, sweating that interferes with daily activities, and skin irritation or infections due to constant moisture.

How is Hyperhidrosis Diagnosed?

Diagnosing hyperhidrosis involves a thorough evaluation of your medical history and symptoms. Our experienced doctors at Northern Sydney Sweat Clinic specialize in diagnosing and treating hyperhidrosis. We’ll take the time to understand your concerns and tailor a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs.

What is the Impact on Body Odour?

Excessive sweating can often lead to body odour, which can be distressing and impact your self-confidence. At Northern Sydney Sweat Clinic, we not only focus on reducing sweat production but also offer solutions to manage body odour effectively. Our goal is to help you feel comfortable and confident in your skin.

What are the Treatment Options?

At Northern Sydney Sweat Clinic, we offer advanced injectable anti-sweat treatments to effectively manage hyperhidrosis. Our doctors are skilled in administering these treatments safely and accurately to target problem areas, such as the underarms, palms, or feet. Our injectable treatments are clinically proven to reduce sweat production and provide long-lasting relief.

How do Anti Sweat Injections Work?

Anti sweat injections treat hyperhidrosis by blocking nerve signals that trigger excessive sweating, providing relief by reducing sweat production in targeted areas.

Is The Injection Painful?

The needle is small, and the pain is not excessive. If you were treating the arm pits, it’s approximately 10 to 20 injections per underarm. To alleviate discomfort, numbing cream can be applied 30 minutes prior to treatment.
