Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis Treatments
The scientific literature shows that the treatment of hyperhidrosis by iontophoresis is the safest treatment compared to the other medical treatments offered (medication, topical cream, injection of botulium A toxin, surgery). It also demonstrates that treatment with iontophoresis is one of the most effective treatments for hyperhidrosis.
Scientific studies report therapeutic success in 75 to 90% of cases. The treatments offered in our clinics confirm these results, approximately 8 out of 10 patients achieve a significant reduction in their sweating.
