Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by uncontrollable excessive sweating in areas such as the axilla (underarms), palms, feet, or head. There are two types of hyperhidrosis: primary hyperhidrosis and secondary hyperhidrosis. Secondary hyperhidrosis is caused by another medical condition or as a side effect of a medication. In contrast, primary hyperhidrosis is an idiopathic condition, meaning it occurs without a clear medical cause or medication influence.
Primary axillary hyperhidrosis (PAH), or excessive sweating limited to the underarm area, can significantly impact a person’s social and psychological well-being. This debilitating condition often requires targeted treatments to improve quality of life. Available treatment options for axillary hyperhidrosis include antiperspirants, systemic anticholinergic medications, laser devices, and surgical options such as excision, liposuction, curettage, and laser surgery. However, these methods offer varying levels of effectiveness.
NON-SURGICAL SOLUTIONS FOR HYPERHIDROSIS
For those seeking non-surgical solutions to manage excessive sweating, Lutronic Infini 4D technology offers an innovative approach. This advanced treatment effectively reduces the rate of underarm sweating by 82%, providing significant relief for patients. In fact, 98% of patients report satisfaction after the treatment and are able to return to their usual work and life patterns immediately.
Before undergoing treatment with Lutronic Infini 4D technology, it is important to shave the underarm hair about 4-6 days in advance. By the time of the treatment, the hair will have grown slightly, making it easier for our specialists to identify the exact areas that need treatment.
WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE DAY OF TREATMENT
On the day of your hyperhidrosis treatment with Lutronic Infini 4D technology, men and women looking for non-surgical solutions for skin tightening and skin firming may also consider other treatments like Exilis Elite™. During your consultation, our medical team will assess several factors, including your health, medical history, cosmetic goals, and expectations, to determine the most suitable treatment for you.
AFTER THE HYPERHIDROSIS TREATMENT
Patients usually experience a bit of heat underarm after treatment which is normal.
Patients can take shower as usual, but we highly recommend patients to use mild soap or shower gel on the first few days after the treatment to avoid any sensitivity.
