Suggest Natural Remedy For Excessive Sweating On Upper Lips

Hi doctor sir, I sweat a lot, especially on my upper lips, and my upper lips are darker when compared to the other area of my face.. pls suggest me a good natural remedy for this. I have a fair skin, but only the darkened portion of my upper lips really looks awkward.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query excessive sweating on upper lips occurs due to condition caused local hyperhidrosis. Need not to worry about it. I would suggest you to apply skin lightening agent to lighten the dark complexion of upper lips. Apply topical retinoids and kojic acid for fairer skin tone. Antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride are very effective in case of excessive sweating. You can take anticholinergic drugs as well.Botox is one of the recent remedy. Drink a glass of tomato juice for excessive sweating. Drink plenty of water. Apply tea tree oil with cotton as it will act as astringent. Avoid eating hot and spicy foods.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Mahheshwari
