Excessive Sweating

Idromed® 5 GS/PS is one of the method used for treatment of hyperhidrosis on the hands and feet, available at HM Liew Skin & Laser Clinic.

During treatment, a small current is passed through affected areas of the skin using an iontophoresis machine. The treated sites will experience a mild tingling sensation which will soon subside after the treatment ends.

The use of direct current (GS) and pulsed direct current (PS) in tap water iontophoresis therapy is an internationally established and scientifically acknowledged treatment procedure, which has been known for years. In scientific studies, the therapy with pulsed direct current with the idromed® 5 PS is rated as the optimum therapy method, especially for very sensitive patients, children and young people.

Recommended treatment duration is roughly 30 mins each session and a trial of twice weekly treatment for 2 consecutive weeks will allow you to see improvement on your sweaty hands and feet. If it works, Dr. Liew will recommend this treatment at the comfort of your own home. HM Liew Skin & Laser Clinic provides the trial sessions and you can also purchase this iontophoresis machine at the clinic.
