If you deal with constant sweating even when it’s not hot or you’re not physically active, you’re probably exhausted from trying to hide it. Whether it’s damp clothes, slippery palms, or the stress of managing it all, excessive sweating can take a toll on your confidence.Â

Why Am I Sweating So Much?
Hyperhidrosis can happen for a few different reasons. Some people have overactive sweat glands without any underlying health problem, which is called primary hyperhidrosis.Â
Others may sweat excessively because of other issues like hormone fluctuations, medication side effects, thyroid problems, or stress. That’s known as secondary hyperhidrosis.
If your sweating is constant, unpredictable, or happening in specific areas like your underarms, hands, feet, or back, it’s worth getting checked out. Hormonal changes, especially around menopause or andropause, can also trigger excessive sweating.Â
Since Dr. Bertolino also treats hormone imbalances, he’s uniquely equipped to dig deeper into what might be going on.
Our Hyperhidrosis Treatment Options
Smooth Solutions offers two powerful options to treat hyperhidrosis, depending on the cause and severity.
- VASER treatment, which is often used for body sculpting, can also be used to physically remove or disable overactive sweat glands. It’s a minimally invasive procedure with long-lasting results, ideal for people whose sweating is concentrated in the underarms.
- Botox is another option that’s FDA-approved to reduce sweating in areas like the underarms by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the sweat glands. It’s a great short-term solution, especially if you’re not ready for something more permanent.
