Die beste Dermatologin in Düsseldorf :-)
Auch gut finde ich, dass man den Gutschein sowohl in der Dermatologie & Laser Center als auch in ihrem Kosmetikinstitut einlösen kann. So kann man sich auch spontan entscheiden und muss sich nicht vorher festlegen.
Ich fühle mich bei Skinthetics in BESTEN Händen! Unglaublich Seriös! Der Wartebereich ist unglaublich stilvoll von Frau Doktor Kröpfl eingerichtet worden. Sobald man in den Behandlungsraum geführt wird ist alles absolut klinisch, sauber und ordentlich eingerichtet! Danke dass es Euch gibt!
Freue mich schon auf den nächsten Termin bei Euch!
Frau Dr. Kröpfl ist eine Offenbarung für mich. Jahrelang habe ich als Erwachsener mit unreiner Haut und Ekzemen gequält, die ich alleine oder mit Hilfe meiner ‘normalen’ Hautärzte nicht in den Griff bekommen habe. Die Behandlungen sind vielleicht kostspielig, aber in jedem Fall ihr Geld wert. Ich fühle mich absolut kompetent beraten und sehr wohl in dieser Praxis.
Man fühlt sich in den Besten Händen, Top Beratung und tolle Ergebnisse inklusive. Die ehrliche Meinung von Frau Dr. Kröpfl weiß ich sehr zu schätzen, da sie mir auch schon von einer Beratung klar abgeraten hat.
Sehr freundliches und kompetentes Team, super schöne Praxis, toller Service und eine angenehme und vorsichtige Behandlung!
Mir wurde mit einer Narbenbehandlung durch Microneedling + PRP super geholfen!! Nur weiterzuempfehlen, danke! 😊
Ich war bisher nur zu einem Beratungsgespräch bei Frau Dr. Kröpfl. Ich bin sehr angetan von der Kompetenz, Transparenz und Klarheit.
Es werden keine unrealistischen Ergebnisse angepriesen und klare Informationen vermittelt.
Dankeschön.
Important information about the treatment of excessive sweating / hyperhidrosis in Düsseldorf
What is Excessive sweating / Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis refers to a pathological overproduction of perspiration that goes far beyond the body's normal thermoregulation. Those affected sweat excessively even when at rest or in cool temperatures. This form of Excessive sweating can occur locally, for example as Excessive sweating on the head, palms, soles of the feet, or in the armpits.
A distinction is made between primary and secondary Hyperhidrosis. The primary form occurs without any identifiable underlying disease and usually affects certain areas of the body symmetrically. Secondary Hyperhidrosis, on the other hand, develops as a result of another disease or medication.
Excessive sweating in the armpits is particularly distressing for many patients, as it is difficult to conceal and is perceived as very disruptive in social or professional situations. The condition can begin in childhood or adolescence and, without treatment, can persist throughout life.
How does Botox treatment work against Excessive sweating / Hyperhidrosis?
Botox (Botulinum toxin) blocks the transmission of signals between nerves and sweat glands. The neurotoxin interrupts communication between the sympathetic nerves and the sweat glands, effectively reducing excessive sweat production.
During treatment, Botox is injected precisely into the affected areas of skin. The substance reaches the nerve endings that normally stimulate the sweat glands to become active. By blocking these nerve signals, the sweat glands produce significantly less sweat.
The effect usually sets in within a few days and lasts for several months. Since the nerve connections regenerate after some time, the treatment must be repeated to maintain the desired effect.
What are the causes of Excessive sweating / Hyperhidrosis?
The exact causes of primary Hyperhidrosis have not been fully researched. There is often a genetic predisposition, as the condition runs in families. Overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system appears to play a central role.
Secondary hyperhidrosis can be caused by various underlying conditions such as hyperthyroidism, diabetes, menopause, or neurological disorders. Certain medications can also trigger Excessive sweating.
Psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, or emotional distress can further exacerbate the symptoms. Excessive sweating on the head in particular is often triggered by emotional situations, which can create a vicious cycle of sweating and stress.
At our practice, Dr. Lucija Grittern first conducts a thorough medical history to identify possible causes and develop the optimal treatment strategy.
Reasons for treating Excessive sweating / Hyperhidrosis
The treatment of hyperhidrosis goes far beyond cosmetic aspects. Excessive sweating can lead to considerable psychosocial stress. Those affected often avoid social contact, suffer from reduced self-confidence, and often develop depressive moods.
Excessive sweating can also have a limiting effect on one's career. Handshakes are avoided, important presentations become torture, and clothing choices are based solely on hiding sweat. This significantly limits quality of life and career opportunities.
Medical aspects also speak in favor of treatment. Permanently moist skin is more prone to fungal infections and bacterial diseases. Painful skin irritations can occur, especially in the armpits or between the toes.
Successful hyperhidrosis treatment can solve these problems permanently and lead to a significant improvement in quality of life. Our patients regularly report a new attitude towards life and increased self-confidence.
Who is the Excessive sweating / Hyperhidrosis treatment at the Skinthetics practice suitable for?
Botox treatment for Hyperhidrosis is suitable for all patients who suffer from pathological excessive sweating and for whom conservative measures have not been sufficiently effective. The method is particularly suitable for localized forms such as the armpits or palms.
The prerequisite is good general health and realistic expectations of the treatment outcome. In our detailed consultation, Dr. Lucija Grittern will explain the possibilities and limitations of the therapy.
The treatment is not suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women or for certain neurological conditions. The therapy must also be postponed in the event of acute skin infections in the area to be treated.
Our team will be happy to advise you individually on the suitability of the treatment for your specific situation. We take both medical and personal factors into account in order to develop a tailor-made treatment concept that best suits your needs.

How does Excessive sweating/Hyperhidrosis treatment at Skinthetics work?
Preparation for treatment
Before each Hyperhidrosis treatment, we conduct a detailed consultation. Dr. Lucija Grittern takes the time to understand your individual concerns and develop the best treatment strategy. Possible risks and side effects are also discussed transparently.
In our first-class environment, you will receive detailed information about the treatment process and aftercare. Existing medications will be reviewed to rule out possible interactions. On the day of treatment, you should refrain from using skin care products containing alcohol and cleanse your skin thoroughly but gently.
Our team will prepare you optimally for the treatment and is available to answer any questions you may have.
Performing the treatment
The actual treatment of Hyperhidrosis takes place in our modern treatment rooms. First, the skin is hygienically cleaned and disinfected. To reduce pain, an anesthetic cream can be applied, which must be left on for about 20-30 minutes.
Dr. Lucija Grittern uses state-of-the-art equipment and the finest needles for precise injections. Small amounts of Botox are injected evenly into the affected areas of skin. In cases of Excessive sweating on the head, the injections are performed with particular care to ensure a natural result.
The treatment takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Throughout the treatment, we pay attention to your well-being and adjust the procedure accordingly. Thanks to our many years of experience, we can usually perform the treatment with minimal pain.
After the injection, the treated area is cooled to minimize any swelling. You will receive detailed instructions on what to do in the first few days after the treatment and can usually leave our practice immediately after the procedure.
Aftercare
The follow-up treatment for Hyperhidrosis Therapy is straightforward but important for the success of the treatment. In the first 24 hours, you should avoid intense physical activity and sports so as not to interfere with the distribution of the Botox.
The treated areas should not be massaged or touched vigorously. Slight redness or minor swelling at the injection sites is normal and usually subsides within a few hours. Cooling compresses can provide relief if necessary. Alcohol should be avoided on the day of treatment as it promotes blood circulation and can lead to increased swelling.
Our team is also available to answer any questions you may have after the treatment.
