Seoul Rappoel&#8217;s Coretox Micro-Injection Treatment for Hyperhidrosis<\/h1>\n<div class=\"sub\">10-minute treatment \u2014 6 months of dryness \u2014 a non-surgical solution to finally overcome embarrassing excessive sweating<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hyperhidrosis is a common condition of sweat gland overactivity, causing persistent and excessive sweating in the underarms, palms, or soles \u2014 even without exercise or heat. This is not simply sweating easily \u2014 it soaks through clothing, causes social embarrassment, and impacts professional image and quality of life. Seoul Rappoel Clinic offers Coretox botulinum toxin micro-injection therapy for hyperhidrosis, blocking the nerve signals to sweat glands at the source. A single treatment provides approximately 6 months of dry comfort.<\/p>\n<h2>Diagnostic Criteria for Hyperhidrosis<\/h2>\n<p>You may have primary hyperhidrosis if you meet at least two of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sweating is disproportionate to ambient temperature and physical activity, occurring without obvious triggers<\/li>\n<li>Sweating is bilateral and symmetrical (e.g., both underarms soak clothing simultaneously)<\/li>\n<li>Troublesome excessive sweating occurs at least 1\u20132 times per week<\/li>\n<li>Onset is typically before age 25<\/li>\n<li>Sweating does not occur during sleep (nocturnal sweating may suggest other underlying medical conditions)<\/li>\n<li>A clear genetic tendency (family members often also have hyperhidrosis)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Coretox Stops Excessive Sweating<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Blocks sweat gland nerve signals:<\/strong> Coretox selectively inhibits acetylcholine release from sympathetic nerve terminals supplying eccrine sweat glands<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reduced sweat gland activity:<\/strong> Without nerve signaling, sweat glands drastically reduce secretion<\/li>\n<li><strong>Localized effect only:<\/strong> The effect is confined to the injected area \u2014 the rest of the body continues to sweat normally for thermoregulation<\/li>\n<li><strong>No gland damage:<\/strong> The effect is functional (inhibition, not destruction); sweat gland function recovers after the treatment wears off<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Rappoel&#8217;s Hyperhidrosis Protocol<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pre-treatment iodine-starch test:<\/strong> Iodine and starch applied to the underarm to map the active sweating areas and severity<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grid-marked injection:<\/strong> Injection grid marked based on iodine-starch results to ensure complete coverage<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ultra-fine intradermal injection:<\/strong> Coretox delivered into the dermis with 32G ultra-fine needles<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bilateral symmetrical treatment:<\/strong> Equal dosing for both underarms; typically approximately 100 units total<\/li>\n<li><strong>10-minute procedure:<\/strong> The entire injection process takes about 10 minutes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Treatment Timeline<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>3\u20135 days:<\/strong> Noticeable reduction in sweating begins<\/li>\n<li><strong>1\u20132 weeks:<\/strong> Maximum dryness achieved<\/li>\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> Approximately 6\u20138 months before gradual return<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintenance:<\/strong> 1\u20132 treatments per year maintain dryness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Suitable treatment areas: underarms (most common), palms, soles, frontal hairline.
