Powerful and compact iontophoresis designed for to treat those with mild to severe hyperhidrosis (a.k.a. excessive sweating), mainly at the hands and feet, as well as for thick to very thick calluses.
The Idromed® 5 GS is based on the effect of constant direct current. This model is suitable for people over age 18 with no sensitive skin and for the treatment of excessively sweaty hands, feet and armpits.
If possible, treatment should be performed once a day initially. Treatment should last 10-15 minutes, depending on the doctor’s prescription. Normally, after 10 -15 treatments, a normal hydrosis level is reached and the skin moisture is normalized. The intervals of treatment should now be extended gradually. (1st week – every 2 days, 2nd week – every 3 days, until there is just one treatment per week). Further instructions are detailed in the User Manual. It is strongly recommended to read the User Manual before you begin using Dr Honle Idromed 5 GS.
Treatments are performed using tap water.
Keeping a patient diary is a makor contributing factor to the success of iontophoresis treatment. Documenting the application helps your physician assess the treatment and, if necessary, to optimize the course of therapy. A recorded treatment history also helps in showing when the electrodes were changed.
In scientific studies, the pulsed direct current therapy with the Idromed® 5 PS is rated as the optimum therapy. Thanks to its new current type, the therapy is improved for very sensitive patients, children and young adults. For users below 18 years old, we recommended the 5 PS model due to its pulsed current delivery.
