Tried Everything and Still Have Sweaty Palms?Are you at your wits end over what to do for your excessively sweaty hands? Have you exhausted all the non-surgical treatment options and your palms still sweat?
Severe palmar hyperhidrosis is often not treatable with aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical agents such as Drysol or systemic agents such as anticholinergic medications. Nor do severe cases respond to iontophoresis, a treatment that passes an electrical current across skin. In these severe cases of excessive hand sweat, the outpatient procedure called ETS may be the solution you need.
You Can Still Be CuredIn severely disabled individuals, those for whom non-surgical treatments have not been successful, ETS, or Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy, is often the next step. ETS is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that has close to a 100% success rate of curing excessive hand sweat.
Your Next Step is an Easy OneImmediately after the ETS procedure, you can return home with renewed confidence and vigor to carry out responsibilities and activities in your business and personal life with dry hands.

Sweaty Hands / Sweaty Palms (Palmar Hyperhydrosis)
A Cure for Axillary (Armpit) Sweating
This is a specific form of Hyperhidrosis with symptoms of excessive armpit sweating. It is based on a different pathophysiological mechanism. This can be treated by ETS or ETS-C, but patients may experience a more severe level of "Compensatory Sweating". Patients who experience axillary sweating as a secondary condition (with severe handsweat as a primary condition) may be a better surgery candidate.
Axillary sweating can be treated with botox injections and superficial suctioning of the axillary area.
Some surgeons have specialized in the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis, while trying not to induce severe levels of compensatory sweating:
By Dr. Chien-Chi Lin, TaiwanOf course, armpit sweating (Bromidrosis) can be treated by sympathetic surgery. The procedure of treating armpit sweating is different from hand and facial sweating or blushing. I use different sympathetic procedures to treat different sympathetic disorders under the rule of Lin-Telaranta Classifications. Lin-Telaranta Classification emphasizes the concept of different procedures for different sympathetic disorders, then better operative results, less side effect or complication are achieved. Lin-Telaranta Classifications are the most important concept in sympathetic surgery in the world now.
By Dr. João B. V. Duarte, BrazilLike palmar and facial hyperhidrosis, axillary hyperhidrosis can be a great handicap in the patients’ lives. Using the Duarte-Kux technique, we can cure axillary sweating in 96% of the patients operated on. If you feel that your axillary sweating is a problem in your life, the most efficient, safest, and easiest solution is the Duarte-Kux technique.
