"Control of Palmar Hyperhidrosis with a New "Dry-Type" Iontophoretic Device - Dermatologic Surgery, January 2007"

Comments:
Apparently there is a 'dry-type' iontophoresis device being tested that does not use tapwater like the Drionic and Fischer devices do.


Anyone who uses iontophoresis can appreciate the impact that a device like this might have. Sitting with your hands submerged in water for 20-30 minutes a day is a pain in the ass to say the least. Though I have no idea what this device looks like, how it is used, or how effective it is (a study with 10 patients is fairly small), this is nonetheless very interesting. Convenience is key!
