Hyperhidrosis Consultation in Chiswick

A private consultation for excessive underarm sweating

Excessive sweating can be uncomfortable, inconvenient and difficult to manage in everyday life. If underarm sweating is affecting your clothing, work, social activities or confidence, a professional assessment can help you understand the options available.

A hyperhidrosis consultation at Aesthetic and Wellness in Chiswick gives you the opportunity to discuss your symptoms with an Independent Nurse Prescriber before deciding whether any treatment is appropriate for you.

The consultation focuses on your individual circumstances rather than selecting a particular treatment in advance.

What is hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is the medical term used to describe excessive sweating. It can affect different areas of the body, although excessive sweating of the underarms is a common concern.

The degree of sweating, how long it has been occurring and whether other factors may be contributing can vary considerably between individuals. For this reason, an assessment is important before deciding how your symptoms should be managed.

What happens during your consultation?

Your practitioner will ask about your symptoms, relevant medical history, medicines and any approaches you have already tried.

You can also discuss:

• how frequently excessive sweating occurs
• which areas are affected
• how your symptoms affect daily activities
• previous treatments or antiperspirants you have tried
• your expectations and concerns
• management options that may be appropriate for you

Where appropriate, your practitioner will explain the potential benefits and limitations of suitable options, possible risks and side effects, aftercare and costs.

Your assessment is individual

Excessive sweating can have different causes and may require different approaches. Therefore, a treatment that is appropriate for one person may not necessarily be suitable for another.

If your practitioner considers that further medical assessment is advisable before proceeding, this will be discussed with you.

You do not need to choose a treatment before booking your consultation.

Can treatment take place at the same appointment?

Depending on your assessment, the option being considered, prescribing and consent requirements and appointment availability, it may sometimes be possible to proceed following your consultation.

However, there is no obligation to have treatment on the day. You can take time to consider the information provided before deciding what you would like to do.
