What is iontophoresis?
Iontophoresis is a treatment for hyperhidrosis — or excessive sweating. It involves sending a gentle electrical current through water to shut down your sweat glands temporarily. If it works for you, you'll have to keep doing the treatments to maintain the results.
What are the side effects of iontophoresis?
Side effects are minimal and most patients have no problems with iontophoresis. There is a temporary tingling sensation during and after treatment. A harmless, but uncomfortable electrical shock may occur if the patient suddenly stops treatment (for example by removing a hand). The skin can become too dry and cracked.
How much does iontophoresis treatment cost?
Iontophoresis Devices The Drionics® machine is a simple relatively inexpensive battery operated iontophoresis device that costs under $200. RA Fischer® manufactures a more sophisticated iontophoresis device that is FDA approved for treating hyperhidrosis. The MD2 is a digital machine that costs about $975.
