MAXIM FOR HANDS ???

hey,

i have read so many times that Maxim has miraculously cured people with excessively sweaty underarms. My underarms sweat mildly which i've cured with Driclor, and my feet sweat too but they don't bother me - my hands still remain a problem. I live in Australia and have tried, all to no avail, Driclor, iontophoresis machine, Botox (which worked in parts of my hands, but now it's wearing off Sad

) I don't really want to have to get the sympathectomy operation because it doesn't seem that appealing... Confused

Just wondering if anyone could tell me if Maxim has worked for their hands??? Question

I might as well give it a shot, even though i have to get it shipped over from US Laughing

Thanks heaps xx

maxim is some *amazing* (supposedly) american product which has rid many people of excessive sweating - i'm hoping it will do wonders to my hands Rolling Eyes

haven't had feedback yet...as you can see! Crying or Very sad

iontophoresis machine is like a thing you put ur hands in for an hour or so - didn't do shit for me, cept made my hands itch like mad! its got like foam pads which you soak with salt water then you put it in this dish which has an electric current running thru it and it supposedly stops your hands from sweating. pfft Evil or Very Mad

I havent heard of Maxim, but maybe i will try it. Also, Ive tried Certain Dri which was advised to be used on my underarms but ive also used it on my hands. Its helped a little, but i think my case is more severe than most, so it may work for you.

Another product is DriOff gel. the other things ive tried i can only put on at night before bed, but this you can apply at anytime. It's been working moderately well for me on my hands, maybe it can help you too.

First off Maxim = Driclor, except driclor is more concentrated.

the answer for your hands is to apply, dry with fan, cover with gloves for 6 hours during sleep. Repeat twice weekly

The thing is you must use driclor/maxim 2-3 times a week. More often and your body will build up a resistance. I use it now for 2 years

Good luck!
