Rock Spring Break Without Worrying About Your Hyperhidrosis!

VACATIONS & HYPERHIDROSIS

Ahhh, Spring Break! Other than Christmas and birthdays, it’s the most anticipated time of the year. The tropical beaches are calling and we are so ready to answer their siren song.

But as awesome as vacations are, they can be tricky for those suffering from excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis. So how do you rock your Spring Break festivities without letting your hyperhidrosis put a literal damper on your fun? Read on for some of our best Spring Break tips!

ANTIPERSPIRANTS

Antiperspirants serve as an effective means to manage perspiration, offering versatility beyond their conventional use on underarms. Indeed, they can be particularly valuable in addressing instances of perspiration in areas like the chest region, often referred to colloquially as "boob sweats."

For optimal outcomes, it is advisable to shower in the evening prior to bedtime and generously apply the antiperspirant. This approach allows sufficient time for the antiperspirant to permeate the pores and inhibit sweat production before embarking on outdoor activities. During the course of the day, individuals have the option to reapply a thin layer of antiperspirant as needed.

wardrobe

Whether you’re headed to the Caribbean or the Antarctic, wearing the right type of clothing is always a must. For warmer climates, breathable fabrics such as cotton are the best bet. Rayons or other silky fabrics can actually cause you to sweat more. If you’re headed to cooler temperatures, try finding sweat-wicking clothes that will help you stay dry under your layers.

Footwear

As strange as it may sound, wet feet and flip-flops do not happy bedfellows make. Wet feet can actually slide against the rubbery material of your flip-flops and become a hazard. Make sure to dry off your feet as best you can before putting on your flip-flops. If possible, opt for a textured sole, which will add traction while also giving you a nice little foot massage with every step. Also, consider other footwear options, such as water shoes made of scuba material.

Portable Treatment

One of the best things about Iontophoresis for treating hyperhidrosis is that it’s always there when you need it. Many iontophoresis devices are portable, including our Fischer models. Our galvanic units come in a carrying case for easy stow and go so that you can keep up with your treatments even while on vacation.
