I had the best time with Dr. Basseri and his team. They were super attentive and helpful throughout the whole process. This surgery has changed my life. I couldn’t believe that after surgery, my biggest insecurity was removed. It was like magic!
After the surgery, Dr. Basseri gave me his personal number and was excited to check in with me post surgery and see how I was healing. He guided me to take special attention to the incision areas and gave me tips on how to heal the best I could. I couldn’t recommend this surgery enough to people who struggle with Hyperhidrosis in their hands.

Trailblazing Educator and Tireless Advocate for Hyperhidrosis Patients: Dr. Basseri Beyond the Operating Room
Approximately 385 million people worldwide (about 5% of the world’s population) struggle with hyperhidrosis.
Despite the fact that millions are affected by this condition, hyperhidrosis is often misunderstood.
In fact, hyperhidrosis remains one of the most undetected and undiagnosed conditions, leaving many untreated patients unable to live lives to the fullest.
Dr. Basseri, alongside Dr. Reisfeld, has made it his mission to change that narrative.
He stands at the intersection of patient care and professional leadership, aiming to bridge the gap between the public and the medical community.
The mission of the Center is to provide proactive care to patients and quality education to doctors and other surgeons on hyperhidrosis. We strive to educate people on the diagnosis and causes of hyperhidrosis, as well as the proven surgical techniques we have pioneered…

Helping Patients Find Sweat Relief for the First Time:
What Makes Dr. Basseri’s Work Incredibly Rewarding
“If you have hyperhidrosis, you know that it brings a primary level of suffering caused by sweating profusely.
You will also know that there is a secondary level of suffering: the frustration that comes from trying to find a diagnosis and a treatment that works…
Along the way, you might have suffered multiple disappointments. You may have even doubted that a solution exists because of the overwhelming struggle you’ve endured.
If that describes you, we understand because we see people every day who feel the way you do. But it really is true: there is a solution.
Every year at the Center, we perform outpatient surgery for hundreds of hyperhidrosis patients with a success rate of 99.2%.
Whether the surgery is for your hands or your feet, the results of successful surgery are immediate.”
