Excessive Sweating - Hyperhidrosis
The two most effective methods for best outcome and longest lasting reduction in excessive sweating (Hyperhidrosis) is deep radio frequency micro-needling and other treatments we can disucss at consultation. We can help diminish the discomfort and embarrassment and provide a sense of relief, as you experience improved personal hygiene and helping to restore your confidence in your personal life, and at work.
Benefits
‘Hyper’ – means excessive, ‘hidrosis’ – means sweating.
RF micro-needling give better outcomes and longer lasting results compared to over the counter preparations such as antiperspirants and deodorants.
What about the results?
You will notice sweat reduction within a few days and this reduction improves further over the following days and weeks.
Because abnormally active sweat glands are removed the results from this treatment are very long lasting and possibly permanent particularly if a repeat treatment is carried out after a few months.
Treatment guide
What is the process?
The area to be treated is totally anaesthetised with local anaesthetic injections so nothing can be felt at all.
Unlike other RF devices the Morpheus8 that we use has needles that can range from 2mm to 7mm in depth, designed to enable us to successfully reach and treat the deep sweat glands in the skin in all patient types, skin types and colours.
The Morpheus8 fires RF pulses into that level of the skin to reduce the numbers of overactive sweat glands present and so effectively drying up the area.
Pricing guide
Contact us for a consultation to discuss your treatment options - we have alternative treatments that cannot be advertised, we can discuss at consultation.
Considerations
Radiofrequency needling treatments for face have been around for a long time but have not been effective for this particular condition. However, a new technology called MORPHEUS8 is extremely effective and is a true game changer in the treatment of hyperhidrosis.
How does it work?
Again, patients are requested not to use any antiperspirants or deodorants for 1-2 weeks beforehand so that a ‘starch-iodine test’ can be carried out to precisely outline the affected area and give the most precise results.
The RF actually removes the overactive sweat glands rather than just blocking their activity, and so results from this treatment are usually very long lasting and very satisfying.
