What Is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a condition that causes excessive sweating beyond what’s needed to regulate body temperature. It commonly affects the underarms, hands, feet, face, and scalp—often disrupting daily life and affecting personal comfort and confidence. At Kairon Polyclinic, we understand how distressing and isolating hyperhidrosis can feel.

Whether you’re constantly worried about visible sweat marks or struggling with slippery palms during handshakes, our dermatology team offers effective, discreet, and personalized solutions to help you take back control. Each treatment is personalized based on your needs, skin type, severity of sweating, and lifestyle goals. Our focus is on results that feel as good as they look—restoring both physical comfort and self-esteem.

How Does Hyperhidrosis Treatment Work?

We begin by identifying the type and cause of your excessive sweating—whether it’s primary hyperhidrosis (with no clear medical cause) or secondary hyperhidrosis (linked to underlying health conditions or medications). From there, we design a treatment plan that targets sweat glands very effectively. Our treatment options include:

  • Botulinum Toxin (Botox) Injections – A highly effective, FDA-approved treatment that temporarily blocks nerve signals responsible for sweat production. It’s most commonly used for underarms, hands, feet, and the forehead.
  • Prescription Topical Solutions – Medical-grade antiperspirants that reduce sweat production in targeted areas.
  • Oral Medications – Used to control sweating when it’s widespread or triggered by nerves.
  • Radiofrequency and Laser Therapies – Minimally invasive technologies that target and shrink overactive sweat glands.
  • Lifestyle and Nutrition Guidance – To help manage sweating triggers such as stress, caffeine, and certain foods.

Who Needs Hyperhidrosis Treatment?

You may benefit from professional treatment at Kairon Polyclinic if:

  • You sweat excessively even in cool temperatures or without physical activity.
  • Sweat interferes with your daily tasks, such as writing, gripping objects, or using devices.
  • You frequently change clothes or use pads to manage underarm or foot sweating.
  • You avoid social or professional situations due to embarrassment from sweating.
  • Over-the-counter antiperspirants are ineffective.

Hyperhidrosis is more common than you think—and you don’t have to manage it alone. Effective, clinically tested solutions exist.

What Causes Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis can stem from several factors, which is why correct diagnosis is important:

  • Primary hyperhidrosis: Typically begins in childhood or adolescence, and is often localized to specific areas like palms or underarms. It’s not linked to other medical conditions.
  • Secondary hyperhidrosis: Caused by underlying health issues such as thyroid disorders, diabetes, infections, or side effects of medications.
  • Genetics: A family history of excessive sweating increases the likelihood of developing the condition.
  • Triggers: Stress, anxiety, spicy foods, or heat may worsen symptoms in some individuals.

At Kairon Polyclinic, we conduct a detailed evaluation to determine the cause and ensure your treatment addresses the root—not just the symptom.

Where Can Hyperhidrosis Occur?

Commonly affected areas include:

  • Underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis)
  • Palms (palmar hyperhidrosis)
  • Soles of the feet (plantar hyperhidrosis)
  • Scalp and face
  • Back and chest

We offer area-specific treatment strategies, ensuring precision and optimal comfort.
