Obesity and Excess sweating: Managing Excess Sweating through Weight Loss

Nairobi Bariatric Center offers focused resources for understanding and addressing obesity-related excess sweating.

Our weight loss procedures have enabled many individuals to mitigate sweating issues significantly, enhancing their life quality.

Studies indicate that achieving weight loss can notably diminish sweating in numerous cases.

Obesity elevates the risk and intensity of hyperhidrosis (excess sweating), a condition that poses both physical discomfort and social challenges. This is due to several factors associated with obesity

Overheating

Excess body fat serves as insulation, raising body temperature and, consequently, sweat production as the body attempts to cool itself.

Increased Physical Exertion

Extra weight demands more effort for daily activities, leading to heightened sweating.

Hormonal Factors

Obesity’s impact on hormonal balance can also affect sweat production.

We strive for the highest level of quality and care

Engaging in effective weight management strategies, especially those under medical guidance, can drastically alleviate hyperhidrosis symptoms. This leads to an improved quality of life, boosting confidence and comfort in both social and professional environments.

We specialize in a variety of weight loss solutions, including gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and non-surgical options like the gastric balloon. These interventions have proven successful in facilitating significant weight reduction and mitigating excessive sweating for our patients.
