Overloading has not got a lot to do with sibilance.
If a voice is prone to sibilance it is there regardless of recording levels. Careful microphone placement can help. A de-esser would/should be the last line of defence.
It is essentially a compressor which only compresses a very narrow frequency band.
You can use it during recording or later during mixing down to stereo.
Oddly Cymbals can make a voice sound more sibilant, it happened to my friends band and it was very annoying.
