Are excessive sweating episodes disrupting your daily life? You’re not alone. Approximately 3% of adults in the United States struggle with hyperhidrosis, a condition that causes abnormal, excessive sweating unrelated to heat or exercise.

At Beauty Vault in Los Angeles, we offer effective, FDA-approved treatments that can significantly reduce excessive sweating and help you regain confidence in your daily activities. Our specialized solutions target underarm sweating, palmar hyperhidrosis (sweaty palms), plantar hyperhidrosis (sweaty feet), and facial hyperhidrosis.

Understanding Hyperhidrosis

Hyperhidrosis exists in two distinct forms, each requiring different treatment approaches:

Primary Focal Hyperhidrosis typically begins before age 25 and often runs in families. This form causes excessive sweating in specific body areas rather than throughout the body.

Secondary Generalized Hyperhidrosis occurs due to underlying medical conditions or as a side effect of certain medications.

Common Areas Affected by Excessive Sweating

Hyperhidrosis commonly affects:

  • Underarms (Axillary) – The high concentration of sweat glands makes this area particularly susceptible
  • Palms of hands – Creating difficulties with gripping objects and social interactions
  • Soles of feet – Leading to discomfort, footwear issues, and potential skin problems
  • Face and scalp – Often causing significant social anxiety and embarrassment

Impact on Daily Life

Living with hyperhidrosis can significantly affect your quality of life. Many patients report:

  • Needing to change clothes multiple times daily
  • Avoiding handshakes and physical contact
  • Difficulty handling objects, documents, or devices
  • Embarrassment in social and professional situations
  • Spending excessive time on hygiene and clothing selection

Advanced Treatment Options at Beauty Vault

At Beauty Vault in Los Angeles, we provide comprehensive treatment solutions for hyperhidrosis, tailored to your specific needs.

Prescription Antiperspirants and Medications

As a first-line treatment, we may recommend prescription-strength antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride. These products create superficial plugs in sweat glands and reduce perspiration.

We also offer prescription creams and wipes containing glycopyrrolate, which have shown excellent results for facial hyperhidrosis by blocking nerve signals that trigger sweat production.

Botox Injections for Hyperhidrosis

Botox treatments at Beauty Vault deliver remarkable results for excessive sweating. Small, precise injections block nerve signals to sweat glands, significantly reducing sweating in the treated area.

Our patients notice improvements within 2 to 7 days, with optimal results appearing after two weeks. The effects typically last between 4 and 12 months, depending on the treated area.

Botox works exceptionally well for:

  • Underarm sweating (lasting 3-10 months)
  • Hand sweating (highly effective)
  • Facial hyperhidrosis

MiraDry Treatment

For underarm sweating, we offer miraDry – an FDA-cleared procedure that uses precise thermal energy to eliminate sweat glands permanently. This innovative treatment provides immediate results with a significant reduction in underarm sweating.

The procedure takes about one hour, and patients can return to their regular activities shortly afterward. Since sweat glands do not regenerate, the results are long-lasting.

Specialized Solutions for Different Body Areas

At Beauty Vault, we understand that different body regions affected by hyperhidrosis require unique treatment approaches. Our specialists design solutions that match each patient’s specific needs.

Treating Underarm Hyperhidrosis

For excessive underarm sweating, we offer:

Prescription Antiperspirants: Applied to completely dry skin before bedtime and washed off after 6-8 hours for maximum effectiveness.

Botox Injections: Our most popular treatment for underarm sweating, with effects becoming noticeable within 7-10 days and lasting several months.

MiraDry: For those seeking a permanent solution to underarm sweating.

Solutions for Sweaty Palms

To manage hand sweating effectively, we provide:

Iontophoresis: A specialized treatment using mild electrical current through water to reduce sweating on hands.

Botox Treatment: Carefully administered to achieve optimal results while minimizing any potential temporary hand weakness. 

Managing Facial and Scalp Sweating

For facial and scalp hyperhidrosis, we recommend:

Topical Glycopyrrolate: An effective first-line treatment for facial sweating.

Botox Injections: Precisely administered to target sweating while preserving facial expressions.

Tips for Managing Hyperhidrosis in Los Angeles

Living in Los Angeles presents unique challenges for hyperhidrosis patients due to the warm climate and active lifestyle. Here are some tips to help manage your symptoms:

Climate-Specific Management Strategies

To stay comfortable in LA’s climate:

  • Choose breathable fabrics like cotton and natural materials
  • Keep spare clothes available for unexpected sweating episodes
  • Consider using underarm shields or dress shields
  • Opt for darker colors or patterns that help hide moisture
  • Select appropriate footwear that allows ventilation

Lifestyle Adjustments

Beyond the weather, certain lifestyle changes can help you manage hyperhidrosis better:

  • Stay well-hydrated, as sweating depletes your body’s water reserves
  • Avoid triggers like spicy foods, excessive caffeine, and processed snacks
  • Include cooling foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and leafy greens in your diet
  • Rotate between different pairs of shoes to allow complete drying
  • Use moisture-wicking socks made from bamboo or specialized materials
  • Practice stress-management techniques, as stress can trigger sweating episodes
