Drionic: Does it work or not?

I used Drionic when I was a teenager, and it hurt like hell! Perhaps I didn't use it correctly, because one reader wrote to say she used it with success. (Hopefully she is not a Drionic marketing representative!) Anyway, here's what the reader said:

So I'm 18 years old and i live in Seattle, Washington.
I've been living with hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet for my entire life and it has been horrible. two years ago i started using drysol and those other aluminum chloride things and they barely worked.

About six months ago, i went to a dermatologist with my mom and she gave me a brochure for Drionic. It has completely changed my life.

While I don't have HH in my armpits, there is a Drionic device for your armpits too.

I ordered my device online from drionic.com. It was about $140...more with tax and shipping, but it was well worth it!

i only use it for my hands, because they need it most and batteries are $7 a pair. This will change your life, I promise you. I first used it for a total of 7 hours (in half hour treatments) and i was dry for 5 weeks! I started doing it once weekly after another set of treatments to stay dry. So a pair of batteries usually lasts about two months or so.
I hope I have helped!!!

Hi Tiara,

I've been reading your blog for a while now, but this is my first comment. I hope I can contribute something useful.

I've had palmar and plantar HH my entire life. I tried Drionic a few years ago but with little success. It worked well on the "heel" of my hands, but that's about it. I don't think it did anything for my feet.

I'm currently treating myself with a homemade iontophoresis device. I happened across a video on YouTube that explains it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc0pj2tf6_4&feature=channel_page. For me, it does not work 100%, so I am going to try some topical treatments as a supplement. Just be careful if you're interested in putting this together.

I'm glad someone found that Drionic works for them. I know how life changing it can be to keep your HH under control. You just have to find what works for you.

I'am using driclor and still I am. It works for me. Have you ever think of doing a surgery?

Hi Sam and Anonymous, thanks so much for your comments. I keep putting off getting treatment. My HH isn't severe anymore, but it sure would be nice to wear sandals in the summer without embarrassing wet spots!
