If you suffer from hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), you have probably looked into a few different remedies. Perhaps you have tried BOTOX® injections to help reduce how much you sweat. Although these can be effective treatments, BOTOX® injections must be repeated after the effects begin to wear off; typically in nine months or less. If you want to reduce excessive sweating with longer-lasting results, Alma SweatX might be right for you. At the Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay, Dr. Jeffrey Hunt offers Alma SweatX as a non-surgical treatment. Using radiofrequency (RF) technology, Alma SweatX can specifically target the overactive glands that cause the effects of hyperhidrosis and osmidrosis without harming the surrounding, healthy tissue. Our patients have seen significant improvement for both conditions following treatment with Alma SweatX. Each treatment session is approximately 20 minutes, and should be repeated weekly. We typically recommend four sessions for optimal results.We understand how embarrassing and upsetting it can be to live with hyperhidrosis or osmidrosis. We have seen incredible success with many of our patients, and hope we can help you, too! If you think Alma SweatX might be able to help you, please contact us today to learn more, or to schedule a consultation. Dr. Hunt can help you determine if this treatment is right for you.
