Tired of avoiding certain shirt colors or unexpected handshakes due to excessive sweating? You’re not alone. Excessive sweating, while more common than you might realize, can be uncomfortable for many people and may sometimes cause insecurity or anxiety. Fortunately, there’s good news! This medical condition called hyperhidrosis is easily treated and today we’ll discuss what treatments are available to candidates.
What are the causes of hyperhidrosis?
Primary hyperhidrosis is essentially the result of the overcommunication of nerve signals to the eccrine glands that cause sweating in areas like the hands, armpits, face, and feet. As a result, the sweat glands are overactive, causing excessive sweating that can be uncomfortable, embarrassing, and an obstacle in day-to-day life.
Who is a good candidate for treatment?
Anyone experiencing excessive sweating due to hyperhidrosis is a good candidate. Whether you’re looking for more comfort and convenience, a confidence boost, or all of the above, seeking treatment for hyperhidrosis can be beneficial and effective. While it’s fine if you’ve had it, you do not need a diagnosis from your primary care provider to receive treatment for hyperhidrosis at Coco Med Spa. If you’re wondering if treating one area will cause more sweating elsewhere don’t worry, that’s a myth! Injector Jessica Suber says, “Clients are worried that if they don’t sweat under their arms, they will sweat more somewhere else but there is nothing medically anywhere that proves this will happen.”
What treatments for hyperhidrosis for Coco Med Spa offer?
At Coco Med Spa, we offer Botox and other neurotoxins to treat hyperhidrosis at our spa in St. Pete. The treatment is fast, easy, and requires virtually no downtime. If you’re someone who sees us for laser hair removal, you can even get your laser treatment done on the same day!
With this treatment, you can generally expect to come about every six months to maintain your results. However, many find that results last even longer than expected!
What areas can be treated for hyperhidrosis?
At Coco Med Spa we are able to treat underarms, hands, and feet for hyperhidrosis. However, the large majority of clients that we treat come in for treatment of the underarms. Hand and foot treatment is a little bit more painful and just not requested as frequently.
Here at Coco Med Spa, it’s common for clients to seek relief and comfort from hyperhidrosis given our warm climate and outdoorsy environment. Our clients love this treatment and are always happy with the results of it. If you’re looking for options to get Botox in St. Pete for hyperhidrosis, contact us to schedule an appointment!
