Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis) Malaysia: Cost and Reviews 2019

Image
What is meant by Excessive Sweating? Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is a condition where patients sweat profusely for no reason. Patients either sweat excessively in their hands, underarms, forehead, feet or, in extreme cases, all over their body. How is Excessive Sweating treated? Excessive sweating is treated by oral medications, electromagnetic impulses, neuro-muscular relaxant injections, laser assisted treatments and by surgical procedures, including liposuction and endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) surgery, Robinol (a brand of glycopyrrolate), armpit Botox and Miradry. Miradry is a technology developed by MiraSmooth, uses microwave energy, instead of the typical lasers involved in hair removal procedures, because it is colour blind. That means that unlike lasers the microwaves can be used on all skin colours. The process takes about 60 minutes, and requires no surgical incisions or cuts.
