You've heard the saying "In May, do as you please." With the intense weather we had this past winter, the return of sunny days gives us a boost of energy, making us feel alive again. A thousand projects and activities come beating down your door.

However, for many people who suffer from excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), the return of the warmer weather is not always synonymous with happiness.

Typically, we perspire in order to drop our body temperature; but for reasons unknown, the sweat glands (the ones that produce sweat) can be stimulated by overactive nerves, causing a production of more sweat than is necessary to regulate the body's temperature.

While hyperhidrosis does not pose a health risk, it can seriously affect your quality of life. The good news is that hyperhidrosis can be treated successfully. A number of options are available. Whatever your concerns, come see us. An evaluation will enable us to define an appropriate personal care and treatment plan that reflects your specific needs.

We look forward to seeing you at Figurra.
