Iontophoresis machines that stop hyperhidrosis

You can find iontophoresis machines for half what you’ll pay for one of ours. In fact, companies who offer cheap alternatives pop up all the time.

Obviously, we’re biased, but here’s what you get when you treat hyperhidrosis with a Hidrex USA iontophoresis machine:

• Effectiveness. Clinical studies show that Hidrex USA devices reduce sweat 100% of the time. And that’s great. But the question is, “Are our customers happy with it?” According to Shopify, 20% (and 30% during holiday seasons) of online purchases are returned. But the Hidrex USA DP450 has a return rate of only 4%. And most of those are exchanges for the Hidrex USA DVP1000, which is returned just 1% of the time. And as you can imagine, we’re quite happy to have happy customers. 😉
• Quality. Hidrex USA iontophoresis machine are built to last. Many iontophoresis machines are made in China from subpar components. In stark contrast, Hidrex USA products are designed and manufactured in Germany. As is the norm with German engineering, Hidrex USA devices are made from top-notch components following extensive research. Oh, and they’ve been in production for 40+ years.
• FDA-Clearance. Our iontophoresis machines are FDA-cleared. Many of our competitors have not gone through the costly process of becoming FDA-approved/cleared.
• Safety. Some iontophoresis devices are made without safety circuits to protect the user. They’re just voltage regulators with electrodes!

There are a number of iontophoresis devices available on the Internet. And only a very small number of them are FDA approved/cleared. FDA-approved/cleared ensures that the device has been designed and proven to be safe and effective for its intended use. Hidrex USA TWI devices are CE Marked (as they are manufactured in Germany) and FDA-cleared (as they are distributed from the U.S.).

Of course, there are other good and approved devices available, but we are concerned for the safety of users who have purchased some of the new devices that have appeared in the last couple of years. Many of them have no approval from their country’s (or any country’s, for that matter) health department and have no chance of it being approved even if submitted.

There is one device in particular that is not really a device at all; it is just an A/C wall adapter with selectable voltages and some electrodes (YIKES!). It has no protective circuits or other mechanisms in place in the case of a failure of the A/C adapter. And that’s both careless and alarming.

Because tap water iontophoresis device mixes water with electricity, Hidrex USA operates under the assumption that FDA approval or equivalent matters to you.

Unless otherwise directed by your physician, you should NOT use Hidrex iontophoresis machines if you:

• Have a cardiac pacemaker;
• Have an ICD (implantable cardioverter/defibrillator);
• Are pregnant;
• Have a metal-containing intrauterine device (IUD);
• Have metallic implants within the current path (arm or leg);
• Have large skin defects/wounds that cannot be covered with petroleum jelly;
• Have impaired sensibility in your hands or feet (e.g. patients with polyneuropathies);
• Have potentially malignant lesions, acute localized infections, skin eruptions, or swollen, broken, or inflamed areas;
• Have an area of your body where sensation is absent or impaired;
• Apply electrical current through or across the chest, brain, or sinuses;
• Have suspected or diagnosed heart problems or epilepsy.

Absolutely!
