Introduction

Welcome to Neumark Surgery, a renowned medical center offering exceptional services in the field of plastic surgery. Our highly skilled team of doctors and plastic surgeons specializes in a wide range of procedures, including the treatment of palm sweating.

Causes and Symptoms of Palm Sweating

Palm sweating, also known as palmar hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterized by excessive sweating in the palms of the hands. It can be a distressing and embarrassing condition that affects individuals' confidence and quality of life.

There are several causes of palm sweating, including genetic predisposition, hormonal imbalances, and certain medical conditions. Individuals experiencing palm sweating often report symptoms such as constant clamminess, difficulty gripping objects, and social anxiety.

Non-Surgical Treatment Options

At Neumark Surgery, we believe in exploring non-surgical treatment options before considering surgical intervention for palm sweating. Our expert team offers a range of innovative treatments that can significantly reduce excessive sweating and improve overall quality of life.

1. Topical Antiperspirants

One of the first-line treatments for palm sweating is the use of topical antiperspirants. These antiperspirants contain aluminum chloride, which works by blocking sweat glands and reducing sweat production. Our doctors can guide you on the best antiperspirant options available.

2. Iontophoresis

Iontophoresis is a non-invasive treatment that uses a low electrical current to temporarily shut down sweat glands. This procedure is highly effective and can provide relief from palm sweating after a few sessions. Neumark Surgery is equipped with state-of-the-art iontophoresis machines for your treatment.

3. Botox Injections

Botox injections have gained popularity as a safe and efficient treatment for palm sweating. Botulinum toxin is injected into the affected areas, temporarily blocking the nerve signals responsible for excessive sweating. Results typically last for several months, offering long-term relief without surgery.

Surgical Treatment Options

In cases where non-surgical treatments do not provide satisfactory results, our team at Neumark Surgery may recommend surgical intervention for palm sweating. Our experienced plastic surgeons employ advanced techniques to address the underlying cause of excessive sweating.

1. Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS)

ETS is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves interrupting the nerve pathways responsible for sweating in the hands. Under general anesthesia, small incisions are made, and a tiny camera is inserted to guide the surgeon. This procedure offers long-lasting relief from palm sweating.

2. Sweat Gland Removal

In certain cases, surgical removal of sweat glands may be necessary to achieve optimal results. Our skilled plastic surgeons can perform this procedure using minimally invasive techniques, ensuring minimal scarring and a faster recovery time.
