What is
Iontophoresis?
During Iontophoresis, a medical device delivers a mild electrical current while the area to be treated is submerged in water. Iontophoresis is most commonly used to treat Hyperhidrosis, a condition that results in persistent and excessive sweating. The current is delivered to the hands, feet, or underarm areas to temporarily block the sweat glands.
What are the Side Effects of Iontophoresis?
Iontophoresis is a safe and painless procedure. The most common side effect is dryness of the skin. Blistering, peeling, and irritation might also occur on the skin. However, these side effects can usually be treated by applying moisturizer to the skin after each session. An over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream can also make you more comfortable.
Are there Contra-Indications?
Should any of the following apply to you, you will not be able to undergo treatment
- Pregnant
- Have epilepsy
- Have a heart condition
- Have a pacemaker or other metal implants, such as artificial joint replacements
- Have open wounds in the area to be treated
