HYPERHIDROSIS
& the Treatment of Excessive Sweating
You are not alone
if you suffer from excessive sweating.
Millions of people exhibit symptoms of
hyperhidrosis - including excessively
sweaty palms,
sweaty hands,
armpits,
feet
or facial blushing. The good news is that
a majority of these symptoms can be
successfully treated.
Those that
seek treatment, enter into a wondrously dry
lifestyle of comfort, confidence, and
enjoyment in their everyday activities
and work and personal relationships.
An
outpatient procedure that typically takes
less than one hour, called ETS or Endoscopic
Thoracic Sympathectomy, has a success rate
of over 98% for most types of cases. Sweaty hands and
palms are treated with great
success. Facial sweating and
blushing, as well as axillary
hyperhidrosis (excessive armpit sweating)
are also treated with high success rates
using the ETS procedure. Immediately upon
completion of your ETS procedure, the
difficult, embarrassing symptoms that you
may have lived with for years, are
eliminated and you can begin experiencing
a life without excessive sweating.
Read about the
treatments - ETS and ETS-C are
considered around the world to be the
best surgical option for most cases of
hyperhidrosis. These procedures are

Jiri A.Konecny
DO
As a Thoracic and Cardiovascular
surgeon, Dr. Jiri Konecny has been
providing treatment and cure of excessive
sweating (hyperhidrosis) in Orange County in
Santa Ana and San Jose, CA. Recently, the
Center has acquired the Harmonic Scalpel - a
State-of-the-Art cutting instrument, which
utilizes high-frequency ultrasonic energy
(55,500 vibrations per second) to allow precise
dissection of tissues at relatively low
temperature, without damage to surrounding
tissues (other nerves, etc). This instrument
permits Sympathectomy at a higher level of the
sympathetic chain, thus expanding the
indications of this surgery to facial sweating
and blushing in addition to hand and armpit
sweating. Each patient has to be evaluated
individually to determine if he/she is a
candidate for the ETS and what level of the
sympathetic chain needs to be addressed. Dr.
Konecny was awarded in 2004-2005 "America's Top
Surgeons" by the Consumers Research Council of
America.

MD

been the partner of Dr. Peter Kux, and they have
performed more than 7,000 ETS surgeries. Dr. Kux
is a celebrated pioneer in the field who began
performing the ETS surgical technique in 1947
and has been further developing ETS in Brazil
since 1954. His technique is now being used by
other ETS surgeons around the world. Based on
their vast and long experience in this field, in
recent years, Dr. Duarte and Dr. Kux have
developed a successful REVOLUTIONARY TECHNIQUE
that almost eliminates the chance of occurrence
of compensatory sweating. With their new
technique, performed on an outpatient basis,
they have treated palmar, axillar, and facial
hyperhidrosis, with a chance to reduce plantar
hyperhidrosis in 94% of the patients operated
on, when it is associated with the other
conditions. Facial Blushing,
Complex
Regional Pain Syndrome, and Vasomotor
Rhinitis can also be treated successfully with
this new method. Usually, patients are able to
return to
their normal activities the day after the
surgery. You can now have
surgery in Brazil by one of the world's
most experienced ETS surgeons.

| "After
the surgery, my hands and
feet are dry. I've
suffered from excessive
sweat on my hands and
feet all my life. Thank
you for fixing my
condition permanently....
" "
Thank-you Dr. Baumgartner
for your expertise and
professionalism, and
thanks to your friendly
staff. This was my first
surgery, and I felt
relaxed and well cared
for during the whole
experience."
"I
had surgery about two
weeks ago and I feel
great, I no longer sweat
from my face and palms
and I feel as if surgery
has changed my life. I'm
more confident in work
and I feel like I could
do things I'd never dream
of doing before."
"I highly recommend
this surgery to anyone with
hyperhidrosis, if you don't have the
disorder you cannot possibly understand.
I also highly recommend Dr Cameron. It
may be a cliche, but it's true......this
surgery changed my life".
"Thank
you for helping me to
solve one of my biggest
problems in my life. As
you already know, the
reason I had the surgery
was for excessive facial
blushing and hand
sweating. My hand
sweating is now
completely gone and my
facial blushing is 80%
removed. The surgery was
well worth it. It was a
dream come true."
"The
surgery went great and
the pain was completely
gone in a week. The
staff was nice and
professional and I felt
secure. My step-mom
accompanied we and she
thought the staff was
very friendly and when
Dr. Konecny came to talk
to her about my surgery
she felt very
comforted. I
recaptured my enthusiasm
for new things.
Overall, I am so happy to
have this done."
"My
life was always so difficult and cold,
that is the best way I can explain it.
I was always wet, I was informed that I
wet through socks on the first day I was
born and I never grew out of it and it
never improved. This condition
affected my femininity, confidence,
academic life, relationships, sports,
job choices and I could go on more but
the list would be endless. After my
operation all these areas greatly
improved in my life, I was so happy with
the way I felt, looked and the new
things I could do without frustration
and embarrassment."
