What is sweat gland liposuction?
What is sweat gland liposuction?
Excessive sweating in the armpit area (axillary hyperhidrosis) can be a significant burden for those affected in their daily lives. Although sweat production is an important natural body function, some people produce significantly more sweat than necessary, regardless of temperature, physical activity, or stress.
How does sweat gland liposuction work?
Sweat gland liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure for the permanent reduction of excessive sweating in the armpit area. The goal of the treatment is to permanently reduce the number of sweat-producing glands, thereby significantly decreasing sweat production.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sweat Gland Curettage
Sweat gland curettage is a surgical procedure for treating severe hyperhidrosis. Through small skin incisions, the sweat glands in the underarm area are permanently reduced via curettage and suction.
The procedure is particularly suitable for patients with significant underarm sweating (axillary hyperhidrosis) when conservative measures such as antiperspirants or botulinum toxin do not achieve sufficient or lasting results.
Since a large portion of the sweat glands is permanently removed, sweat production in the treated areas is significantly reduced in the long term. However, complete freedom from sweating cannot be guaranteed.
Botulinum toxin temporarily inhibits sweat production and needs to be repeated regularly. In contrast, sweat gland curettage aims for a long-term reduction of sweat glands through a surgical procedure.
Mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness are normal in the first few days. Depending on the healing process, most patients are able to return to work within a few days, while sports and intense physical activities should be avoided for about two to four weeks.
Light daily activities are usually possible after a few days. Intensive physical exertion should generally be avoided for about two to four weeks.
