What is the age range for patients to have the ETS procedure done?
The age range of patients for which Dr. Reisfeld performs the ETS procedure is between 10 years old and 66 years old. Dr. Reisfeld assesses each patient on a case by case basis. Generally speaking at present the recommendation for younger patients is to wait until they have gained more physiological, physical and mental maturation. This means that the potential patients should wait until the approximate age of 15 or 16. It is however recommended that Dr. Reisfeld be contacted for a much more precise assessment. Please see our section on younger age hyperhidrosis.
