Hyperhidrosis in Hongdae – Control Excessive Sweating & Regain Comfort
Struggling with excessive sweating that disrupts your daily life? Hyperhidrosis can be both physically uncomfortable and emotionally distressing. At our clinic in Hongdae, we offer safe and effective treatments to control overactive sweat glands—helping you stay dry, confident, and comfortable throughout your day.
What Is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by abnormally excessive sweating, typically beyond what is needed for body temperature regulation. It can affect:
- Underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis)
- Palms (palmar hyperhidrosis)
- Soles of the feet (plantar hyperhidrosis)
- Face, back, or other localized areas
Hyperhidrosis can be primary (without an underlying cause) or secondary (linked to another medical condition).
Why Treat Hyperhidrosis?
Key Benefits:
✅ Drastically reduces excessive sweating
✅ Enhances confidence in social and professional settings
✅ Prevents sweat stains, odor, and skin irritation
✅ Minimally invasive with long-lasting results
✅ Safe for both men and women
✅ Quick procedure with no significant downtime
Hyperhidrosis Treatments Offered
We offer multiple effective treatment options tailored to the severity and area of sweating:
- Botox Injections
FDA-approved for treating excessive underarm, hand, and foot sweating. Temporarily blocks nerve signals to sweat glands, reducing sweat production for 4–6 months. - Iontophoresis Therapy
Uses mild electrical currents to reduce sweating in the hands and feet—ideal for patients avoiding injections. - Topical Prescription Solutions
High-strength antiperspirants or aluminum chloride compounds for mild to moderate cases. - Microwave Thermolysis (e.g., miraDry®)
Permanently destroys sweat glands in the underarms using heat energy—long-term results with just 1–2 sessions. - Radiofrequency (RF) or Laser-Based Sweat Gland Ablation
Targets and disables sweat glands in a precise, non-surgical manner for long-term reduction.
What to Expect During Treatment
- Botox: The procedure takes 15–30 minutes, with minor discomfort from fine needle injections. Results start within 3–7 days.
- Iontophoresis: Each session takes 20–40 minutes, usually done several times a week at first.
- MiraDry or RF: Sessions last 45–60 minutes, with localized numbing. Mild swelling or soreness is expected post-treatment.
Most treatments allow you to return to daily activities immediately.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate if:
- You experience frequent or uncontrollable sweating
- You’ve tried topical solutions without success
- Sweating affects your clothing, relationships, or job performance
- You want a safe, non-surgical option with visible results
- You’re in good general health with no contraindications to treatment
Treatments are available for both primary and secondary hyperhidrosis, depending on your medical history.
How Long Do Results Last?
- Botox: 4 to 6 months per session (can be repeated)
- Iontophoresis: Requires regular maintenance sessions
- miraDry / RF Ablation: Permanent reduction in underarm sweating
- Topical treatments: Ongoing use required for continued effect
