Other Skin Concerns

Excessive Sweating

Sweating beyond temperature or activity needs context, particularly when it begins suddenly or occurs at night.

In plain language

What this term means.

Hyperhidrosis is sweating that is excessive for the body's cooling needs. It may be localised or associated with another medical factor.

What patients notice

Common signs and descriptions

  • Sweaty palms, soles or underarms
  • Clothing impact
  • Daily-life interference
  • Sudden generalised or night sweating

Possible explanations

Different causes can look similar

  • Primary focal hyperhidrosis
  • Medicines
  • Hormonal or metabolic factors
  • Other medical conditions

Professional assessment

How a consultation may clarify the concern.

The concern is examined in person before cosmetic treatment is discussed
History, change over time, symptoms and skin distribution help distinguish similar-looking conditions

Treatment approach

Options follow the diagnosis

  • Confirm the diagnosis first
  • Discuss medical or procedural options only after safety and suitability are clear

Avoid

What not to do

  • Do not burn, cut or apply acids to an unidentified growth
  • Avoid concealing important changes with repeated home treatment

Care

Useful next steps

  • Photograph changes with a date and seek assessment when warning signs appear
  • Use gentle skin care while the cause is unclear

Frequently asked

Questions to take into consultation.

A photograph can document appearance but may not show texture, depth, scalp findings or warning signs. A diagnosis and personalised plan may require history and in-person examination.

Not usually. The appropriate pathway depends on the cause, severity, skin or hair characteristics, previous treatment, medical suitability and the result you hope to achieve.
