WHAT IS HIDRADENITIS SUPPURATIVA?
  • Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a dermatological
    condition that causes outbreaks of painful bumps
    beneath the skin in areas near sweat glands.
    Theres no known cure for this condition.
    However, many patients find relief by undergoing
    treatments and lifestyle changes to reduce
    flare-ups. The sweat glands affected by this
    condition are called apocrine glands and are
    located in areas of bodily hair growth, such as
    the armpits, groin and between the buttocks.

  • Painful conditions, such as hidradenitis
    suppurativa, can affect your quality of life,
    altering your lifestyle and limiting your social
    options. The Atlanta Center for Breast and
    Aesthetic Surgery, led by Dr. Frederick T. Work,
    Jr., is a full-service plastic surgery facility
    offering comprehensive, compassionate

CAUSES OF HIDRADENITIS SUPPURATIVA
  • Exact causes of hidradenitis suppurativa have not
    been established. However, the outbreaks begin
    when sweat glands become obstructed. Most
    patients experience the first outbreak in their
    teens or 20s.
  • Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) occurs more
    commonly in women than in men and is also more
    common among those who are overweight and
    smokers. About a third of people who contract HS
    have at least one family member who also has the
    condition and it seems to be more prevalent in
    those who have had acne.
