Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition where a person sweats much more than needed to regulate body temperature. It can happen even when you’re not hot, stressed, or doing physical activity. The sweat may affect the underarms, palms, soles, face, or even the entire body, making daily life uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassing.

This condition can be caused by an overactive nervous system, which sends signals to the sweat glands even when it’s not necessary. In some people, hyperhidrosis is genetic and runs in the family. It may also be triggered by hormonal changes, stress, certain medical conditions like diabetes or thyroid problems, or side effects of medications. In many cases, the exact cause is not clear, but the impact on a person’s social, personal, and professional life can be significant.

At Dr. Neha Sodhi’s Skin Hair & Laser Clinic, we offer effective solutions for excessive sweating treatment in Jalandhar. After a detailed consultation and identifying the cause, we offer treatments such as medicated antiperspirants, oral medications, and most effectively, Botox injections. Botox is approved for treating excessive sweating, especially under the arms, and works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause the sweat glands to produce sweat. The procedure is quick, safe, and results usually last for several months.

Getting treatment for excessive sweating is not just about physical comfort—it also helps you feel more confident, less anxious, and more in control of your day-to-day life. If left untreated, hyperhidrosis can lead to skin infections, bad odor, and emotional stress, especially in public or social situations.
