Hyperhidrosis Treatment: Regain Your Confidence
At Balanced Skin Dermatology and Aesthetics in Newport Beach, our board-certified dermatologists specialize in the effective treatment of hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating. If you struggle with uncontrollable sweating that affects your daily life and self-confidence, our skilled team offers advanced solutions to help you manage your symptoms and regain your comfort.
Understanding Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating that goes beyond what is necessary for normal body temperature regulation. This excessive sweating can occur in specific areas, such as the underarms, hands, feet, or face, or it can affect the entire body. Hyperhidrosis can be classified into two main types:
- Primary hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating with no underlying medical cause
- Secondary hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating caused by an underlying medical condition or medication
Hyperhidrosis can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, leading to emotional distress, social anxiety, and occupational challenges. If you find that excessive sweating is interfering with your daily activities and relationships, it's essential to seek professional help from a board-certified dermatologist.
Hyperhidrosis Treatment Options
At Balanced Skin Dermatology and Aesthetics, we offer a range of advanced treatment options for hyperhidrosis, tailored to your individual needs and goals. These treatments include:
Prescription-Strength Antiperspirants
We may recommend prescription-strength antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride, which work by blocking the sweat ducts and reducing sweat production. These antiperspirants are typically applied to the affected areas at bedtime and washed off in the morning.
Oral Medications
In some cases, oral medications such as anticholinergics may be prescribed to help reduce sweating. These medications work by blocking the nerve signals that stimulate the sweat glands. We will carefully assess your medical history and monitor you for any potential side effects.
Botox Injections
Botox injections are a highly effective treatment for hyperhidrosis, particularly in the underarms, hands, and feet. Botox works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that stimulate the sweat glands, reducing sweat production for several months. Our skilled dermatologists use fine needles to administer Botox injections with minimal discomfort and downtime.
miraDry
miraDry is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment for underarm hyperhidrosis. This innovative technology uses targeted thermal energy to safely and effectively destroy the sweat glands in the underarms, providing long-lasting sweat reduction. Most patients experience a significant improvement in their underarm sweating after just one or two treatments.
Our experienced dermatologists will assess your hyperhidrosis and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan based on your individual needs, lifestyle, and treatment goals.
What to Expect During and After Your Treatment
The treatment experience for hyperhidrosis varies depending on the specific therapy chosen. Prescription-strength antiperspirants and oral medications can be used at home, while Botox injections treatments are performed in our office by our skilled dermatologists.
Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure optimal results. We are committed to supporting you throughout your hyperhidrosis treatment journey and helping you achieve a drier, more comfortable, and more confident life.
