Causes of Hyperhidrosis:
Sweating usually occurs when we remain in a hot temperature for a long period. We sweat when we are excited or in a state of stress. Hyperhidrosis occurs due to the overactivity of sweat glands. When more signals are sent to the sweat gland it results in more sweating. This is the main cause of excessive sweating. Some other risk factors include family history, menopause, or any medical condition or response to certain medications. Hyperhidrosis is classified into two categories: focal and secondary hyperhidrosis.

Treatment Procedure:

He then numbs the area using topical anaesthesia or a numbing cream to minimise the discomfort during the procedure. After that, he creates a small incision under the skin tissues and then inserts a cannula with a fibre tip. After that, the laser light of different wavelengths is directed toward the targeted area. The laser light will destroy the sweat glands and after that, the cannula is used to remove the destroyed sweat glands from the treatment area.ย
