Excessive Sweating / Hyperhidrosis

IN NASHVILLE, TN

Excessive Sweating/Hyperhidrosis

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is a condition that causes abnormal and excessive perspiration, often unrelated to heat or physical activity. This condition can affect specific areas like the underarms, palms, soles, or face and may significantly impact daily life, leading to discomfort and self-consciousness. At Gold Skin Care Center, we offer effective treatments to help you manage hyperhidrosis and regain confidence in your skin.

What Causes Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis occurs when the sweat glands become overactive, producing more sweat than is necessary to regulate body temperature. This can happen for various reasons:
  • Primary Hyperhidrosis: Often hereditary, this type affects localized areas such as the hands, feet, and underarms without an underlying medical cause.
  • Secondary Hyperhidrosis: Caused by medical conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, or menopause, or as a side effect of certain medications.
Symptoms include excessive sweating that interferes with daily activities, damp clothes, and clammy skin in affected areas. While not life-threatening, hyperhidrosis can cause emotional and social distress.

Advanced Treatments for Hyperhidrosis

At Gold Skin Care Center, we provide advanced solutions to help you control excessive sweating and improve your quality of life. Our treatments include:

Botox Cosmetic

Botox Cosmetic is an FDA-approved treatment that effectively reduces excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands. This treatment is particularly beneficial for areas like the underarms, hands, and feet. Results typically last for several months, offering significant relief and improved quality of life. Patients can return to their daily activities immediately after the quick, minimally invasive procedure.

MiraDry

MiraDry is a non-invasive treatment that provides a permanent solution for excessive underarm sweating. It uses thermal energy to target and destroy sweat glands in the treated area without impacting the body’s ability to regulate temperature. In addition to reducing sweat, miraDry also helps with odor and hair reduction, making it a comprehensive option for managing underarm concerns. This procedure is ideal for those seeking a lasting solution without the need for repeated treatments.

Brella

Brella is a revolutionary in-office treatment that delivers fast and targeted relief for excessive sweating. Designed to be both efficient and effective, Brella addresses sweat production in specific areas, such as the underarms or hands, with minimal downtime. The procedure is completed in just a single session, making it a convenient choice for those looking for quick results. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment.

Prescription Antiperspirants

Prescription-strength antiperspirants are a first-line treatment for individuals with mild hyperhidrosis. These products contain higher concentrations of active ingredients, such as aluminum chloride, which work to block sweat ducts and reduce moisture in the treated area. They are easy to incorporate into a daily routine and provide a cost-effective option for managing sweat. Regular application, especially at night, helps to maximize effectiveness and maintain dryness.

Medications

For individuals with more widespread or severe hyperhidrosis, oral medications may be prescribed to regulate sweat gland activity throughout the body. Anticholinergic medications, such as glycopyrrolate, work by blocking the chemical signals that activate sweat glands. These medications are particularly useful for those who do not respond to topical treatments or localized therapies. While effective, they are typically used under close medical supervision to manage potential side effects like dry mouth or blurred vision.
Our team will evaluate your condition and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Managing Hyperhidrosis: Tips from the Experts

  • Use Antiperspirants: Apply clinical-strength antiperspirants to dry skin at night for maximum effectiveness.
  • Wear Breathable Fabrics: Choose lightweight, moisture-wicking clothing to reduce sweat build-up.
  • Avoid Triggers: Identify and manage stress or dietary triggers that may worsen sweating.
  • Stay Cool: Keep your environment cool and use fans or air conditioning when possible.
