Facial Hyperhidrosis

When sweating of the face becomes bothersome or limits daily life, it is a good idea to discuss it with a professional to learn about the available options. Facial hyperhidrosis is excessive sweat production on the face and, at times, on the scalp, greater than what is needed to regulate temperature.

What does it involve? It is excess facial sweat that can appear spontaneously or become more pronounced with heat, exercise, or tense situations.

How it affects you: Constant dripping or shine on the face, discomfort, and at times an impact on confidence and social relationships.

Which specialist handles it? The evaluation can start with a professional, and the cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon takes part when surgical options are being considered. Clearing up your questions with a specialist helps in choosing the most suitable path for each person.
