Micro ETS™     Effective treatment for Blushing, Hyperhidrosis, Raynaud'S, SVT & Migraines.

Hyperhidrosis is a hereditary condition caused by an overactive sympathetic nervous system affecting an estimated 7.8 million Americans. Symptoms include excessive sweating of the face, scalp, hands, neck, armpits, or feet. It is associated with Raynaud's Disease (cold hands that often change colors because of hypersensitivity to temperature change), and facial blushing/burning. What many people do not know is that there is effective treatment for sweaty face, sweaty palms, blushing/burning of the face, and Raynaud's Disease. Conservative treatments are recommended before considering surgery. If alternate treatment options have been ineffective in stopping blushing/burning of the face, excessive sweating of the face/scalp/hands/underarms, then Micro ETS could be your solution.

Father shares: If I could give Dr. Neilson ten stars, I would.

My 24-year-old daughter suffered for years from debilitating symptoms that affected every aspect of her daily life — chronically cold and sweaty hands that registered as low as 84°F, soaking night sweats, excessive thirst and dry mouth, and recurring hot flashes to her head and face. She was exhausted, uncomfortable, and honestly had just accepted that this was her life. Then she found Dr. Neilson. The micro ETS procedure was a complete game-changer. Her hand temperature went from 84°F to 98°F — normal, warm, human hands for the first time. The night sweats? Gone. The excessive thirst and dry mouth? Resolved. The hot flashes to her head and face? A thing of the past. As a father watching his daughter suffer for so long, I cannot put into words what it means to see her thriving now. She is a different person — confident, comfortable in her own skin, and full of life. What makes this story even more meaningful is that I am not just a proud father — I am also a former patient. Fifteen+ years ago, Dr. Neilson performed the same micro ETS procedure on me, with a very similar outcome. I know firsthand the life-changing difference this surgery makes, which is exactly why, when my daughter began struggling with the same symptoms, there was never any question about where we would turn. I trusted Dr. Neilson with my own health, and I trusted him with my daughter's. That says everything. Dr. Neilson's skill, precision, and genuine compassion made what felt like an overwhelming decision feel like the most natural and right choice we ever made. Every step of the process was handled with professionalism and care. We are forever grateful. I also have to give a very special mention to Ed Lee, who drove us to every single appointment and to the airport. Ed is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity — warm, reliable, and genuinely invested in my daughter's wellbeing. He wasn't just a driver; he was a calming, caring presence during a stressful time for our whole family. Ed, you are one of a kind, and we won't forget your kindness. If you or someone you love is suffering and considering this procedure, do not hesitate. Dr. Neilson and his team are extraordinary. We are living proof — twice over.

Micro ETS™    Offered exclusively by Dr Nielson.

Micro ETS™ is offered to treat conditions of Blushing/Hyperpyrexia (burning) of the face/neck/chest, Hyperhidrosis (face, scalp, neck, hands, axillae), Raynaud's of the hands (cold fingers), SVT (supraventricular tachicardia), and Migraines.

Board certified as a thoracic surgeon, Dr. Nielson has performed over 7000 procedures with his minimally invasive Micro Single Incision (1/12th innch) endoscopic technique (Micro ETS™). He is one of the most experienced endoscopic thoracic surgeons performing ETS surgery. Experience performing this surgery is essential in obtaining high efficacy (success) when treating Blushing/hyperpyrexia of the face, Hyperhidrosis of the face, scalp, neck, hands, axillae and Raynaud's of the fingers (cold fingers). Dr. Nielson revolutionized endoscopic surgery by developing Micro Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (Micro ETS™) - single 1/12th inch incision per underarm, no collapsing of the lungs, no dissection of the nerve from the inner chest wall to find the nerve.

His Micro ETS™ procedure is the least invasive, most advanced surgery for those suffering from emotionally triggered Blushing/Burning of the face, Hyperhidrosis (profuse sweating) of the face, scalp, hands, underarms), Raynaud's of the fingers, SVT (supra ventricular tachycardia and Migraines  . During the procedure, Dr. Nielson makes a tiny, single incision, 1/12 of an inch under each arm. Using microscopic instruments, Dr. Nielson is able to navigate behind the lung (which is not collasped) to the sympathetic nerve without dissecting or digging the nerve out from the chest wall tissue at all to find it. Improvement is seen immediately after Dr. Nielson divides the sympathetic nerve at the 2nd rib head, first on the right side and then on the left side. Patients are ready to be discharged from the ambulatory surgery center one to two hours later with followup examination in his office the next morning.  Patients can return home right after by plane or car.
