Facial Sweating | Scalp Sweating Testimonials
Dear Dr. Nielson,
Just a followup to our conversation last Thursday a day after my successful
surgery. I had the Micro ETS surgery Wednesday Feb 27th and all the
problems are finally solved. As you know I have tried everything to
correct my extremely severe cases of Hyperhydrosis, Frey’s syndrome,
Reynaud’s disease etc. that you and I have been emailing back
and forth about since 1999. For the past nine years I have taken all
of your advice to correct the problem and frankly nothing worked other
than to reduce the problems but all non surgical treatments for me
were either useless or had major side effects. I know for most folks,
surgery is the last option and it actually was the last option for
me as well but looking back I wish ETS had been my first option. I
tried all the creams and wipes – none worked. I also tried several
medications you recommended that my local Dr. prescribed such as levsinex
and hyoscomine which worked somewhat but I couldn’t handle the
side effects of itchy, irritating skin and blurred vision and I tried
some pills that didn’t work at all such as klonopin (I think
was the name- I tried it once and it may have worked a little for some
of your patients but didn’t help me a bit). Finally, I flew to
San Antonio last week and a 20 minute surgery cured everything intantly!
I know ETS surgery for most may not be the first option but for my
problems such as hyperhydrosis, especially severe on the scalp and
face which was as debilitating as mine it was the only thing. Please
feel free to have any potential patients email me with questions and
use me as a referral.
Thanks and Regards, (Patient)
Dear Dr. N. and Staff,
It has been 8 months since my ETS for facial
and scalp sweating and
facial blushing. I want to thank you again for changing my life.
It has been an incredible experience. I have had minimal comp sweating
on my trunk, only in very hot weather, and no sweating or blushing
above the chest. I am doing things that I never thought possible.
I do not have to worry about interviews or public speaking or meeting
new people. I read about all the HH sufferers and I cannot understand
why they do not just have the surgery. It was so easy. Sometimes
I forget that I even had it done. You and your staff will always
be in my heart. After 30 years of suffering, I am finally normal.
All the best (Patient)
Dear
Dr. Nielson and staff,
It has been almost 3 months since my surgery. I was waiting for a while
before I wrote this letter to see how I was doing. I wanted to thank you and
your staff for changing my life. After 30 years of severe facial and
scalp sweating and blushing, I can now say that I feel completely cured.
I have been in numerous situations where, in the past, I would be red and sweaty
and now, not a drop. I haven't even felt the blushing. It is
absolutely amazing. The comp sweating that I have is moderate and only when I'm
very hot. I can live with that. That is something I can cover up and deal with.
And besides, unless it's very hot, I don't get it. In general, I am completely
dry all day at work and I even wear a suit and tie.
This has been a lifesaver for me. I feel like a different person. I can go anywhere
and do anything without fear. I am in a profession where I do a lot of public
speaking and now I do not have to worry about the embarrassment from sweating.
I took a chance with you Dr. Nielson. I came all the way from VA and you did
not let me down. The surgery was so easy, I only took a couple Advil that same
night. I am back to running and feeling great. I don't know how to thank you
enough. You have an outstanding staff. They made me feel so comfortable and are
always there to answer questions. I am recommending you to anyone that is interested.
It would be crazy to go to someone else.
Thank you for helping me enjoy life again.
Sincerely, (Patient) PhD
Good Day:
About one year ago my wife and I came to your office for the Micro
ETS procedure. I had completed the research and made the decision
to have the procedure, but all contacts were completed by phone, email,
or by mail. We had never been to San Antonio…after several
months of research learning the “good and bad”, we took
a leap of faith.
Today I can report that the procedure was very successful for the
then sixty-nine year old patient. My facial and head
problems have been completely corrected and it has certainly
relieved me of embarrassing situations and permits us to participate
in many new activities and make new friends.
I have no side effects worth mentioning. I think there is some
compensatory sweating if the surrounding temperatures are
high, but seldom is this a problem that cannot be easily handled.
This note is just to say thanks to Dr. Nielson and his professional
and compassionate staff for the way I was treated, the skill exhibited
in the procedure, the courage to recommend this treatment to even someone
my age (knowing it might not work to the satisfaction of 100% of your
patients), for pointing out the risks and possible side effects…and
then leaving the decision to my wife and myself.
Were we a little anxious? Yes. Would we do it again? Yes. Would
we recommend Dr. Nielson and his staff? Without question.
Thanks more than I can say. You have blessed our “golden
years”. May each of you experience a Blessed Easter.
Sincerely, (Patient)
Dr. Nielson,
Briefly, I had significant facial HH for much of my life. In the late
1990's, well before HH and ETS were well known. I researched the subject
extensively and discovered ETS and your proficiency in this clinical
procedure. You successfully performed the procedure on me, and my life
is FAR better as a result. I am now a faculty member at a one of the
most prominent public research institutions in the U.S., and I suspect
this would have not been possible without your intervention in my HH
affliction.
Touching base with the HH scene recently through a range of HH forums,
I am troubled by the stigmatized perception of ETS. While I certainly
experience some degree of compensatory sweating, I have no regrets
about my ETS and feel that legions of HH sufferers can benefit from
this procedure. I suspect that most who have had successful experience
with ETS have simply moved on with rare thought of thier former circumstance,
and thus rarely participate in the ETS forums.
I am writing to vindicate any concerns which you may have about your
clinical devotion, and would like to offer any assistance by way of
testimony or otherwise support for your efforts. Please advise.
Additionally, I note you are a graduate of the Temple School of Medicine.
I, too am a product of the Temple graduate school, and implore you
to promote your Temple affiliation. Go Owls!
Regards, Tom 
Words can not express the gratitude I have towards Dr. Nielson
and his staff,
Having ETS surgery has truly changed my life and has essentially
given me a fresh start. I have suffered from severe social anxiety
for a greater part of my 33 years. My anxiety manifested itself
physically through severe facial sweating and blushing. I
was unable to have a conversation or be in a social situation without
encountering terrible sweating and anxiety. On many instances,
I have had to excuse myself from a meeting at work, constantly having
to come up with intricate stories as to why I suddenly would break
out into a severe sweat. Over the years, I tried a multitude
of treatments, medications and doctors -- some with very negative side
effects with little to no relief. I honestly felt hopeless,
and both my personal and professional life were suffering. It
was overwhelming - and took over my life. I considered it a miracle
that I happened upon Dr Nielsons website. I felt like my prayers
were answered. From my first inquiry, Dr Nielsons staff made
the entire process both easy and stress free. I felt like for
the first time in my life I was speaking to someone who understood
the torment I was going through. Jane and her counterparts answered
all of my questions, and made the entire experience a pleasure. I
can honestly say that my procedure was quick and pain free. Dr
Nielson was a true gentlemen, and his genuine sincerity greatly impressed
me. I was amazed at the immediate results, and I encountered
little to no side effects. As it stands now, my compensatory
sweating is minimal to none. I immediately felt like a new person. I
was able to speak without feeling flush, and the sweating vanished
immediately. My anxiety was all but gone in a matter of days. Years
of suffering and worry - which I do not believe anyone can truly understand
unless they experience it themselves - was cured in an instant. I
can now function at work and in my personal life without worry of sweating,
blushing or being embarrassed. Both my relatives and my
professional peers have noted a positive change in attitude and performance. My
confidence and strength grows by the day. I am no longer
burdened with doctors or medication (Paxil, Nardil, etc.) - and no
longer feel hopeless. Dr Nielson has changed my life,
and I can not find the words to express my ultimate gratitude.
Good Morning Dr. Nielson, Jane, and Staff,
My surgery has been a huge success!!! I am no longer experiencing facial
blushing or sweating...not even a drop of sweat on my face since
the surgery...the feeling is so great words cannot explain it.
I am experiencing an increased amount of compensatory sweating when
I am active, but this is very tolerable and does not bother me. I have
also had a chance to eat some spicy foods which in the past triggered
facial blushing and sweating, however this no longer occuring...thank
god.
I would like to thank you again Dr. Nielson and your staff for everything
you've done for me. Both you and your staff from the very beginning
have represented the utmost courtesy and professionalism...I really
appreciate that. I especially appreciated your surgical accomadations
this past Friday when I missed my first surgery time.
If I can ever be of any assistance in your practice or website, please
do not hesitate to ask. You've really changed my life for the better!!!!!!!
Sincerely,
(Patient)
Dear
Dr. Nielson, Jane, & Staff:
WOW……it’s been almost 1 month since my surgery
for hyperhidrosis of the scalp & facial blushing, and I can truly
say that I am amazed! The difference this has made in my life is truly
miraculous! My self confidence has soared; I’m not scared to
be in social situations (including the grocery store) for fear my head
would become totally wet and my face would drip with perspiration.
I actually smile now when I’m in a store, or at church, or a
restaurant, knowing I look as “normal” as all the others
there. I don’t have that pressure of people looking at me when
the sweating would begin. Some women (strangers) had even joked with
me about menopause! I’m not there yet!! LOL. I feel that I am
more professional at my job as I now don’t have to worry about
my appearance – that is about a wet head & sweaty face up
to 5-6 times during a workday. The compensatory sweating is there,
but compared to the sweating I’ve had for over 40 years, it’s
very tolerable. I now think I sweat like most people normally do! I
had always just sweated on my head & face, not my body. I’ve
gone from washing my hair up to 3 times a day, to just once a day in
the morning! That’s amazing in itself.
Thank you so much Dr. Nielson for giving me a life that is as normal
as everyone else. I feel great about myself, am not as self-conscious
as before, and I am so glad I had the surgery. The procedure itself
was very easy for me. I just had minor pains for a while. And the surgery
was so fast as was the recovery time. Bless you for this gift you have
and for sharing it with those of us who are in dire need of it. I want
to tell everyone about Micro ETS!!! And how it’s changed me as
a person and made my life better.
Dr. Nielson, your office staff is the BEST! Pleasant, kind, informative,
caring…..I don’t have enough adjectives for Jane, Peggy,
and all the rest. And the hospital staff was just as kind.
Thank you again for all you’ve done for me, Dr. Nielson. You
have really blessed me and given me a new lease on life.
(sorry to be so long, but wow, lots to say!!)
Thank you!

To
Doctor Nielson and staff:
Thanks to all of you for giving me a new life. Words could never express
how much your knowledge and kindness have meant to me. From my 1st
phone call with Jane about the micro ETS surgery to my last meeting
with Dr. Nielson you hall have done everything possible to make this
as stress free and enjoyable as possible. For me, 40 years of embarrassment
and anxiety were gone in 30 minutes. I am forever grateful for having
you come into my life.
How did you get so good at making people happy?
Thanks for everything,
(Patient)
Dr
Nielson,
Just a brief update. It has been five weeks since my Micro ETS surgery
- and I am still astounded with the results. Thank you so much and
God sends nothing but the very best!
(Patient)
Hello
Jane and Dr. Nielson,
I am truely grateful for the miracle I received on August 31st. The
operation is a gift that I have been waiting for 30 years. I am so
overwhelmed and thrilled I can't rub off my smile. People look at me
and wonder . . . what is she so happy about? If they only knew. I thank
the angles and God for sending me to your website. Thank you Jane,
you are an angel. And thank you Dr. Nielson for the miracle and a new
rebirth. Loyally yours,
(Paitent)
Dear
Dr. Nielson,
The results are unbelievable! No single event has changed my life or
the way I feel physically like this surgery. Thank you.
(Patient)
Dear Jane & Peggy,
You are right, I am absolutely ecstatic with the whole micro ETS surgery
procedure, and ultimate success!!!!!! Dr. Nielson is phenomenal!
The most brilliant, compassionate, caring doctor I have ever met.
I thank GOD every night for him and this miracle. I am sending a
report and hope I have completed it correctly, If not please let
me know. Thanks again for your care and concern. May you and your
families enjoy a safe and warm holiday season. Sincerly,
(Patient)
Dear Peggy and Dr Nielson,
I just wanted to take a moment and than you so much for creating the
web-site, without it I would still be uncomfortable and embarrassed.
This was an answered prayer, and I thank God for placing you in my
life. Peggy, I would like to personally thank you for taking the
time and seeing me before I went into surgery, That was a wonderful
treat and it made me feel a lot better about the surgery I was about
to undergo. You can't imagine how my life has changed in just a few
days. Dr. Nielson, I would also like to thank you for pioneering
this procedure and making it so pain free. I have not had an uncomfortable
day yet. If it was not for you taking the time to study hyperhidrosis
and learn a new technique, I and many other people would still be
worried about the problem. I can't even begin to let you know how
much I have already appreciated this operation. Thank you!!!
(Patient)

Dr. Nielson,
I just wanted to send a note to thank you for giving me a
social life again. As you know I had severe facial & scalp hyperhydrosis
and would literally drip sweat off my ear lobes and have a cold river
of sweat running down my neck in social situations. Since surgery,
the most I have experienced is some minor moisture on my face & scalp
when eating spicy food. I have moderate CS on my chest & legs but as
I told you before surgery, that's a small price to pay for the freedom
to have an unrestricted lifestyle again. Thanks to all and I wish you
the best!
