Hyperhidrosis: Excessive Sweating
Is your excessive sweating hindering you at work? Is it stopping you from going on dates or job interviews?
Hyperhidrosis affects approximately 3% of Canadians. It has an impact on work productivity, confidence, social comfort, emotional wellbeing and the clothes on chooses to wear.
A neuromodulator works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, thereby preventing the activation of sweat glands. A Health Canada Approved neuromodulator is used for the treatment of axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis, but is routinely used off-label to treat other types: craniofacial (face), palmar (hand), plantar (feet) sweating.
