Excessive Sweating

We treat Hyperhidrosis at Dermatology Realm at our office in Germantown, Tennessee. Hyperhidrosis is a common disorder that affects the sweat glands in which there is an overproduction of sweat. Most commonly hyperhidrosis affects the axillae (under arms), palms of the hands, and soles of the feet. Many treatment options are available, such as, topical aluminum chloride. Injectable BOTOX® is another treatment option when topical agents do not work. When injected just under the skin, the Botulium Toxin Type A temporarily blocks the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands do not receive chemical signals, the severe sweating stops.

More information regarding hyperhidrosis and effective treatment options is available in our office in Germantown, Tennessee. Make an appointment today at Dermatology Realm to discuss your specific circumstances and how this condition may be best treated.
