What is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition where the body sweats excessively, far beyond what’s needed to regulate temperature. This excessive sweating happens no matter the weather or physical activity, and it usually affects the underarms, hands, feet, and face. While everyone sweats, those with hyperhidrosis experience constant dampness that can lead to discomfort, skin irritation, and even social anxiety.

Types of Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis comes in two forms: Primary and Secondary.
Primary Hyperhidrosis
Primary hyperhidrosis is the most common type and usually starts in childhood or adolescence. It’s when you sweat excessively in specific areas like your hands, feet, face, and underarms. This type isn’t caused by any other medical condition and is often hereditary. The exact reason why it happens isn’t always clear, but it’s thought to be related to overactive sweat glands.
Secondary Hyperhidrosis
Secondary hyperhidrosis, on the other hand, is caused by an underlying medical condition or a side effect of medication. This type can start at any age and often leads to sweating all over your body, not just in specific areas. Conditions like diabetes, thyroid problems, or menopause can cause secondary hyperhidrosis. If you suddenly start sweating a lot and can’t figure out why, it’s important to see a doctor to rule out any medical issues.
The exact cause of hyperhidrosis isn’t always clear, but it is often linked to overactive sweat glands that produce more sweat than needed. Genetics may also play a role, as it often runs in families.
Additionally, several factors can make hyperhidrosis worse. Anxiety and stress can send your sweat glands into overdrive. Sweating can also be intensified by humid and hot weather. Watch out for triggers like caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods – these can make you sweat even more. By knowing what triggers your sweating, you can manage it effectively.
If left untreated, however, hyperhidrosis can lead to more than just discomfort, affecting your quality of life and well-being. You might struggle with everyday tasks like holding objects, writing without smudges, or avoiding fungal infections in damp areas. The constant anxiety about sweating might hurt your self-esteem and mental health.
Non-Surgical Treatments for Hyperhidrosis
At Canada MedLaser, we offer a range of non-surgical treatments to effectively manage hyperhidrosis and improve your quality of life:
Botox injections temporarily block the nerve signals that cause hyperhidrosis. To be able to make this happen, small amounts of Botox units are carefully injected into your underarms, palms, and feet. The procedure only takes about 30 minutes.
You should notice reduced sweating within a few days, and the best results will show up within about two weeks. Effects typically last for 3 to 6 months, and with regular touch up treatments, you can make them last even longer.
Morpheus8 is an advanced treatment that can significantly reduce sweating and improve your quality of life. This minimally invasive procedure combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to target and deactivate overactive sweat glands.
During the Morpheus8 treatment, our experienced aestheticians use a special handheld device to deliver tiny needles into the affected area. These needles create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. Simultaneously, radiofrequency energy heats the skin’s deeper layers, which limits your sweat glands’ ability to produce perspiration.
How Much Do Cosmetic Injections Cost at Canada MedLaser?
The cost of Botox at Canada MedLaser depends on how many units you need. The cost per unit starts at $9. Morpheus8 treatments, on the other hand, are priced per session or package, and we offer package bundles, as well as discount offers tailored for our EVOLVE membership holders.
When’s the Best Time to Get Treated?
If excessive sweating interferes with your daily life, it’s time to seek treatment. Consider professional help if:
- You avoid social or professional situations due to sweating.
- Over-the-counter antiperspirants don’t work.
- You experience skin problems due to constant moisture.
- Your quality of life is affected by the condition.
