NEW YORK,
July 19, 2020 (Newswire.com) –

Dermadry has just launched its new awareness campaign Voices of Hyperhidrosis, dedicated to amplifying the voices of hyperhidrosis and breaking the silence surrounding this common medical condition.

Hyperhidrosis is a highly misunderstood, underreported, and stigmatized condition whose effects are wide-ranging and life-altering. The debilitating condition can take a toll on a person’s quality of life, emotional wellbeing, physical and mental health, and interfere with their social and occupational life. It affects over 365 million people worldwide, yet people are still suffering in silence.

Dermadry is dedicated to empowering those living with hyperhidrosis and continuously striving to educate this public on this widely misunderstood condition, which is why they have launched a new awareness campaign called Voices of Hyperhidrosis.

What is Voices of Hyperhidrosis?

Voices of Hyperhidrosis is an awareness campaign dedicated to destigmatizing hyperhidrosis and breaking the silence surrounding excessive sweating. We are asking people around the world to join us in raising awareness about hyperhidrosis and its mental, physical, emotional, occupational, and social challenges. 

Their goal is to amplify the voices of those living with hyperhidrosis and create visual and textual documentation that explores the individual lives of hyperhidrosis sufferers. 

Submissions

Voices of Hyperhidrosis is currently open for submissions. Dermadry is asking interested individuals to share a selfie, a photo depicting their hyperhidrosis (hand, foot, underarm, face, etc.) and a short caption explaining their photos and story.

They welcome all of those who currently suffer from hyperhidrosis or have suffered from it in the past to get involved. All entries submitted before July 29, 2020, will be entered into a draw to win $1,000! One winner will be randomly selected among all the valid entries.

Whether you suffer from excessive hand, foot, underarm, facial (or otherwise) sweating, all are welcome to join in on the conversation and break the taboo!​
