Patient Story – Palmar Hyperhidrosis

A great story from a patient of mine.

I have suffered all of my life from a condition called palmer hyperhidrosis which is excessive sweaty palms/hands. I’ve tried everything over the counter to dry my hands, but nothing has worked. For years I avoided situations that require hand holding or social interactions. And job interviews scared me to death because it involved a lot of hand shaking. I read that Botox was a great solution for Hyperhidrosis and decided to find a doctor. I found Dr. Berman and consulted with him about Botox injections to treat my condition. He was very professional and knowledgeable about different treatment options. I scheduled treatment for my right hand to see if Botox injections would actually work for me.

After numbing my hand, Dr. Berman gently injected Botox shots. I could feel the small needle pricks, but surprising it was not painful. It took about 15 minutes to complete the injections. I experienced no side effects. After two weeks I noticed a big improvement and less sweating, but there were still a few noticeable sweat spots around my fingertips. At my two week follow-up visit Dr. Berman injected a few more Botox shots in the fingertips. It’s now been three weeks and I’m no longer dripping with sweat! THANK GOODNESS!!! I’ve since had the left hand done and I am totally satisfied.

If you are suffering from this problem, I highly recommend you visit Dr. Berman. He is a great doctor and cares very much about his patients. He was always prompt for my appointments and I never had to wait to see him. And his staff is very pleasant and will make you feel right at home.

I love helping my patients. Schedule a consultation today.
