Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, can make day-to-day life inconvenient and embarrassing. As North Carolina’s premier destination for medical and aesthetic skincare, Wilmington Dermatology Center is proud to offer advanced, FDA-approved treatments for hyperhidrosis so you don’t have to sweat being sweaty!
What is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a commonly misdiagnosed condition where one sweats an abnormal amount, usually in the armpits, palms, and face. In most cases, this condition is due to nervous system issues and has very little to do with regular sweat triggers like weather, temperature, or exercise. This results in sweating at inopportune moments, even to the point of drenching your clothes.
Often, hyperhidrosis has no underlying cause, and the best thing to do is to treat the sweat glands directly.
Hyperhidrosis Treatment with miraDry® at Wilmington Dermatology
Besides miraDry®, we also offer Botox injections — another FDA-approved treatment to treat hyperhidrosis — that can be periodically touched up. If you choose to go the Botox route, it’s a simple and noninvasive injection in the underarm area with minimal downtime. We also offer prescription strength anti-perspirant as a day-to-day solution.
