miraDry - A Great Permanent Option for Excessive Underarm Sweating

Stress, exercise, weather, masks, and, well, just being human can lead to sweating. No matter when, why, where, or how much people sweat, they all have one thing in common: they want to sweat less (or less noticeably).

Sweating is your body’s way of cooling off. It causes your body to release fluids through sweat glands covering your skin. This liquid is mainly water, including salt, sugar, and other compounds. 

Although your body makes an effort to preserve these, some are lost due to sweating. Sweat cools your skin as it evaporates, reducing your body temperature. 

Sweating is natural and good, primarily when your body temperature increases, like when you exercise. However, sweating, such as hyperhidrosis, may be excessive or humiliating at times, and the Alberta Sweat Clinic has invented the best treatment for it. 

What is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating that is not caused by heat or exertion. You sweat so intensely that it soaks through your clothes or drips off your hands. Aside from interfering with everyday tasks, excessive perspiration can induce social anxiety and humiliation.

The sweat glands in your body overwork in hyperhidrosis, and this hyperactivity leads you to sweat profusely at times and in places when others would not.

Excessive sweating can be caused by a medical condition or an emotion (such as nervousness). Reducing symptoms can be a persistent issue for many persons with hyperhidrosis.

There are two kinds of hyperhidrosis:

Primary hyperhidrosis: This condition produces excessive sweating in the palms, underarms, face, and feet for no apparent reason.

Secondary hyperhidrosis: is characterized by excessive sweating all over the body or in a greater body region.

What Causes Hyperhidrosis?

Primary hyperhidrosis has no medical cause because it sometimes runs in families, it may have a genetic component.

When a medical condition causes excessive sweating, this is secondary hyperhidrosis. It’s the rarer variety. It is more prone to induce excessive perspiration throughout your body. Conditions that might cause excessive sweating include:

  • Diabetes
  • Hot flashes with menopause
  • Thyroid issues
  • Low blood sugar levels
  • Certain kinds of cancer
  • The heart attack
  • Nervous system dysfunctions
  • Infections

Miradry Treatment

The Alberta Sweat Clinic has worked hard with its exceptional team of experts to develop an excellent therapy for hyperhidrosis called MiraDry. 

MiraDry is a rapid and non-invasive energy-based therapy to treat underarm sweating and hyperhidrosis. MiraDry employs thermal energy to generate heat in the area where irritating sweat and odor glands occur, allowing them to be safely eliminated. It targets the areas using heat energy. 

Most patients describe this operation as painless, with little to no downtime. A local anesthetic is delivered to the underarms before treatment for the patient’s comfort. Some regional discomfort or swelling may occur, but this should resolve within a few weeks.

If you think you sweat excessively and want to end it, you can take a quick survey and determine if this treatment is something you need. 

KEY TAKEAWAY!

Everyone struggles with sweating, and no amount of natural remedies can solve it. Try the MiraDry procedure to eliminate sweat’s chances of completely distressing you again.
