At Aventis, Dr Imogen promotes a holistic, 360-degree approach to health and wellbeing, including treatment of hyperhidrosis – excess sweating.
Diagnose
Do you sweat from your palms, or experience sweating more than you think is normal underneath your armpits? Then you might be suffering from hyperhidrosis. This syndrome causes excess sweating through clothes, or sweat dripping from the hands. Patients with hyperhidrosis often feel self-conscious, embarrassed, and anxious, especially in social situations, and it can even interfere with normal life. It can be especially difficult to deal with in the hot Caribbean climate that we enjoy here in Cayman.
Treat
At Aventis, we want to help treat our patients in any way we can and have created a tranquil and facial aesthetics studio in which to do so. Using Botox, we can address excessive sweating from the armpits or hands by blocking the nerve glands that promote sweat in that area. This effectively stops the nerve glands from working and can help control the amount of sweat being produced.
Relieve
Using botulinum toxin to help stop sweating from the armpits has an almost immediate effect and can get you back to enjoying the beautiful Cayman climate without the fear of sweat patches or having a hand too sweaty for someone to shake.
The results from the treatment can last for up to a year and can be covered by your insurance.
