I personally underwent the op. Be aware though, that the
operation involves making incisions near the armpits at the
ribcage. It will leave two little scars. (hard to spot when my arms
are down or clothed)
The only risk worth mentioning is puncturing your lungs
accidentally during the op. But even that is not very serious or
life threatening as it is very minimal chances. Another thing is
compensatory sweating might occur. As in, the sweat intended for
your palms will be directed to other parts of your body that will
sweat more. Which parts you ask me? It varies from patient to
patient. For me, my chest sweats more but i'm okay with it. Some
patients are lucky and do not get compensatory sweating at
all.
Post op recovery was very painful as they collapsed my lung during
surgery and it was hell just to breath for the first few days.
Really hurt like siao everytime i took in a breath.
Was it worth it? If i had go and do it again, I would. I am very
satisfied with the results and frankly speaking, I don't think
those temporary options can come close. This is guaranteed and
permanently effective. After suffering from uncontrollable wet
hands since young, my hands are dry all day round. At the most will
only be a little moist, but nothing more than that even if you
force it.
To those who never suffer from excessive sweaty palms, you don't
know how good it feels for once to have dry hands while writing,
shaking hands and doing daily activities.
