Excess Sweating (Hyperhidrosis) Treatment in Hyderabad

Do you suffer from excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) that causes embarrassment, discomfort, and impacts your daily life, regardless of temperature or stress levels? Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by sweating beyond what is necessary for normal body temperature regulation. At Dr. Nishita’s Clinic in Hyderabad, we offer highly effective treatments, primarily using Botulinum Toxin injections, to significantly reduce excessive sweating in areas like the underarms, palms, and soles, helping you regain comfort and confidence.

Understanding Hyperhidrosis (Excess Sweating)

Hyperhidrosis can be:

  • Primary Focal Hyperhidrosis: The most common type. It’s not caused by another medical condition or medication. It typically affects specific areas (focal) like:
    • Axillary Hyperhidrosis: Excessive underarm sweating.
    • Palmar Hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating of the palms.
    • Plantar Hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating of the soles of the feet.
    • Craniofacial Hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating of the face and scalp.
  • Secondary Generalised Hyperhidrosis: Caused by an underlying medical condition (e.g., thyroid disorders, diabetes, infections, menopause) or as a side effect of medication. This type often involves sweating all over the body and requires investigation of the underlying cause.

Dr. Nishita’s Clinic primarily focuses on treating Primary Focal Hyperhidrosis with Botulinum Toxin.

Impact of Hyperhidrosis

  • Social embarrassment and anxiety.
  • Difficulty with daily activities (e.g., gripping objects, stained clothing).
  • Skin irritation and increased risk of skin infections in affected areas.
  • Negative impact on quality of life and self-esteem.

Botulinum Toxin for Hyperhidrosis: How It Works

Botulinum Toxin (e.g., Botox®, Dysport®) works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands. If the glands don’t receive the signal, they don’t produce sweat.
Multiple small injections of Botulinum Toxin are administered directly into the skin of the affected area (e.g., underarms, palms).
Highly effective, leading to a significant reduction in sweating in the treated areas.

The Hyperhidrosis Treatment Procedure (with Botulinum Toxin)

Dr. Nishita will assess your symptoms, medical history, and the areas affected. An iodine-starch test (Minor’s test) may be performed for underarms to map out the precise areas of sweating.
For underarm treatments, discomfort is usually minimal, and numbing cream may or may not be needed. For palms and soles, which are more sensitive, topical anaesthetic cream, ice, or nerve blocks may be used for comfort.
Using a very fine needle, Dr. Nishita administers multiple small injections of Botulinum Toxin in a grid-like pattern across the treatment area.
The procedure typically takes about 20-45 minutes, depending on the area(s) being treated.
No significant downtime. You can resume most normal activities immediately. Avoid strenuous exercise or saunas for 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Results typically last from 6 to 9 months, and sometimes up to a year or longer. Repeat treatments are needed to maintain the effects.
You will usually start to notice a significant decrease in sweating within 2-7 days after the treatment, with full effects becoming apparent within 2 weeks.
For underarms, discomfort is generally mild. For palms and soles, it can be more sensitive, so effective anaesthesia is prioritised to ensure comfort.
Side effects are usually minimal and temporary, including pinpoint bruising, mild soreness, or swelling at the injection sites. When treating palms, some temporary mild weakness in hand grip can occur but is rare with proper technique and resolves. Compensatory sweating (increased sweating in other body areas) is uncommon with focal treatments.
This varies. Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition, and some insurance plans may cover part of the treatment cost. It’s best to check with your provider.
