Excessive Sweating Treatment (Hyperhidrose)

Excessive Sweating Treatment (Hyperhidrose)

Sweating is a natural reaction of the body, which ensures its cooling. Sweating during heat, during physical or psychological stress is most often absolutely normal.

Hyperhidrosis is a violation of the functions of the sweat glands. Its main manifestations are sweating for no apparent reason, excessive sweating, and moisturizing only certain parts of the body.

Increased sweating can be an individual feature of a person or a symptom of hyperhidrosis. If it causes discomfort, you should consult a doctor. Modern medicine allows you to completely solve this problem.

Types of hyperhidrosis

Hyperhidrosis can manifest itself in different ways. In most patients, sweating attacks are associated with some provoking factors. This can be hot weather, active work, emotional stress, alcohol consumption, spicy food, etc. In some cases, sweating appears for no apparent reason.

In this regard, hyperhidrosis is distinguished:

Depending on the cause

  • primary – this is too strong work of sweat glands in the appropriate situation;
  • secondary – develops against the background of certain diseases and can manifest itself at rest, during sleep, etc.

With primary hyperhidrosis, a person usually sweats in appropriate situations, but more profusely. With secondary hyperhidrosis, the mechanism of activation of sweat glands and sweating is disrupted. The reason for this may be certain disorders in the body, so sweat often appears seemingly for no reason.

Depending on the location of sweating

  • general hyperhidrosis – sweating occurs evenly throughout the body, where the sweat glands are located;
  • local hyperhidrosis – sweat is secreted only by some glands, and is absent in other places.

With local hyperhidrosis, sweating can occur in one or more areas. These can be the armpits, palms, feet, face, head, back, thighs and other places where the largest number of sweat glands is located.

Depending on the intensity of sweating

  • light;
  • medium;
  • heavy.

By clinical course

  • constant – attacks of sweating are repeated constantly;
  • seasonal – profuse sweating is associated with an increase in temperature and, of course, intensifies in spring and summer;
  • intermittent – ​​periods of remission and exacerbations alternate.

Indications for treatment

It is recommended to undergo the treatment procedure for excessive sweating if the following symptoms appear:

sweating at normal ambient temperature

sweating at rest

sweating during sleep

sweating only on the face, head, palms, armpits, or other parts of the body

excessive sweating

profuse sweating over a long period of time

recurrence of attacks more than once a week

More details

The principle of treatment for hyperhidrosis

The principle of treatment is to stop the signals from the CNS to the sweat glands. This can be achieved by administering neurotoxin type A. Neurotoxin molecules, binding to nerve fiber receptors, inhibit the release of mediators and block sweat gland receptors, as a result of which the glands cease to respond to stimulating signals, and sweating stops.

How does it work?

The principle of treatment consists in halting the receipt of signals from the Central Nervous System (CNS) by sweat glands. The injection of neurotoxin type A helps achieving it. The molecules of neurotoxin, binding to the receptors of nerve fibers, slow down the release of mediators and block the receptors of sweat glands, as the result of which the glands stop reacting to the stimulating signals, and the sweating stops.

Duration of the procedure effect

Neurotoxin injections are administered into the area where the sweat glands are overactive. This way, you can get rid of excessive sweating in just 1 procedure. The effect appears within a few hours and increases over two weeks until sweating is completely normalized.

The effect of the drug lasts for more than 6 months, sometimes a year or a year and a half.

Advantages of this hyperhidrosis treatment method

Treatment of hyperhidrosis with neurotoxin A drugs is superior to the effect of electrophoresis and even surgery.

A significant reduction in sweating occurs after two days, but the maximum effect is achieved 6-15 days after the procedure.

Contraindications to hyperhidrosis treatment

The use of drugs based on neurotoxin type A is not recommended for patients with:

  • allergy to the components of the drug;
  • neurological diseases;
  • skin diseases in the injection area.

Before the procedure, you should consult a doctor to exclude the presence of contraindications.

Була на косметологічній процедурі у Потапчук Ірини Станіславівни. Дуже сподобалося ставлення — все стерильно, комфортно, без болю. Лікарка пояснила кожен етап і дала рекомендації для домашнього догляду.
