I have severe facial cranial hyperhidrosis, I know MiraDry is only approved for armpit excessive sweating. What can I do?

Hello, please see belowThere are a variety of techniques to decrease sweating:Miradry-  Miradry uses microwave energy to destroy apocrine and eccrine glands.  It is better at eccrine gland destruction than apocrine and is currently only used on the underarm area.
RF needling- Can be used anywhere on the body and can destroy both apocrine and eccrine glands.  Has become the procedure of choice in my practice for hyperhidrosis due to its effectiveness.
Nerve ablation-Not commonly performed anymore as side effects are often worse than treatment and effectiveness is often limited.
Oral medications- Too many side effects to be effective.
Topical medications- Works by blocking glands.  Many patients state how not effective mechanism.

I appreciate your question. Cranial hyperhidrosis is a serious medical condition. Botox and Dysport work very well and these are the best treatments I have encountered over 15 years. 
You can consider Botox for the hands, feet, groin and back. 
You should also consider MiraDry for the underarms. These are non-surgical procedures done in the office without the risks of surgery. 
Botox can be used in other places as well.However, I would avoid using MiraDry in the head and neck.
Good luck. Dr. ALDO

I have co-authored a book on Miradry and continue to see very positive results for armpit sweating. My office is a regional referral center for hyperhidrosis and I am aware of studies being performed for non-armpit Miradry-like technology. Until the technology gets FDA approved, I would suggest Botox injections for the cranial hyperhidrosis. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
