Persipation / Hyperhidrosis : treatment options
- Leipzig area / Saonia /b Germany -

For many people, excessive perspiration constitutes a serious problem. After even a slight physical effort or emotional strain, affected patients find themselves affected by extremely intense perspiration, often in the armpits, the palms of the hands or the soles of the feet. The reason generally stems from overactivity in a portion of the vegetative nervous system.
Besides adopting a general policy of avoiding clothing made of synthetic fabrics, people suffering from this condition can also consider treatment with special medical procedures.
Local injection of botulinum toxin A is one of the most favorable and successful treatment methods. It is mainly used to combat perspiration of the hands, but it is also applied in other areas.
Many patients enjoy lasting relief from excess perspiration in the armpits thanks to a nearly pain-free procedure involving the suction of the perspiration glands.
