Condition: Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating, clinically known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterized by uncontrollable sweating that goes beyond what the body needs for temperature regulation. It can affect the underarms, hands, feet, face, or other areas, often occurring regardless of heat, physical activity, or stress. While not medically dangerous, hyperhidrosis can significantly impact daily comfort, confidence, social interactions, and overall quality of life.

At EverYoung Laser and Skincare Clinic, we offer advanced, clinically proven solutions to help control excessive sweating safely and effectively.

Types Of Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating localized to specific areas such as the underarms, palms, soles, or face, often without an identifiable medical cause.

Sweating triggered by an underlying condition or medication, typically affecting larger areas of the body.

Excessive underarm sweating, one of the most common and treatable forms.

Sweating of the hands and feet that may interfere with daily tasks and comfort.

Common Causes Behind Excessive Sweating

Overactive sweat glands triggered by the nervous system.

Inherited tendency to excessive sweating.

Sweating linked to hormonal changes or imbalances.

Excess sweating caused by anxiety or stress.

Sweating related to medications or medical conditions.
