Hyperhidrosis therapy in Zurich
Excessive sweating, medically known as hyperhidrosis, can cause considerable discomfort in both private and professional life. It often goes beyond the normal amount of sweating required to regulate the body's temperature and can interfere with everyday activities and social interactions. It can cause embarrassing situations and cause sufferers to avoid certain clothing or activities to avoid visible sweat marks. Our aesthetics center understands the distress this condition causes and specializes in providing permanent solutions to hyperhidrosis through the removal of underarm sweat glands.
The burden of excessive sweating
Hyperhidrosis therapy in Zurich is a way for people who suffer from excessive sweating to find effective help. Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which the body sweats excessively, often far more than is necessary for cooling. This can cause considerable distress in everyday life, as normal activities such as work, sport or even simple social interactions can be affected by sweating. Sufferers can feel uncomfortable, ashamed of their condition and experience severe emotional stress. In addition, excessive sweating can lead to skin problems such as fungal infections or skin irritation.
A first step against excessive sweating
Botulinum toxin A, commonly known as Botox, has proven to be an effective remedy for excessive sweating. It is a natural, purified protein that blocks the signals sent by the nerve to the sweat glands. This provides temporary relief from excessive sweating and can offer a significant improvement in quality of life. The treatment is quick, requires no downtime and can be repeated once the effect wears off.
Ultrasound treatment to remove the sweat glands
For those looking for a permanent solution, our aesthetics center offers the innovative technique of removing underarm sweat glands using ultrasound. Through a small incision about 6 mm long on the inner upper arm, ultrasound waves gently act on the offending sweat glands and destroy them completely. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia and offers a permanent solution for those affected.
A new life without excessive sweating
The operation only takes about an hour. The result is an even, smooth and normal complexion and the end of annoying sweating. Patients often report a significant improvement in their quality of life after the operation. Relief from the constant worry and discomfort of excessive sweating can have a profound effect, boosting self-confidence and allowing people to live their lives without the restrictions caused by hyperhidrosis.
