Hyperhidrosis – excessive sweating – is a distressing condition
Patients with hyperhidrosis often suffer for years trying various deodorants and antiperspirants. They often take spare outfits to work. Excessive sweating makes them feel anxious about themselves.

For patients who have struggled with the discomfort of constant sweaty patches, difficulties in social situations and at work, this is a simple temporary treatment with very few downsides.
Effects of treatment become noticeable in a week, and may last upto 6 months. Treatments can be repeated as required.
