Hi, I would like to share with you my experience with the SweatX treatment so far. I have generalised hyperhidrosis, however, only my hands, feet and to some extent my underarms sweat during rest. My forehead and back sweat with light work when it's a bit hot.
Recently, a beauty clinic in my country has acquired a machine called SweatX that can target the sweat glands on any area in the body and deactivate them. It uses RF technology to selectively heat the sweat glands by exciting the water molecules they contain (99% of the water in the upper skin is concentrated in the sweat glands). They say that it lasts at least 9 months, but that's only because it's still new and they can't be sure it's permanent. However, it's very likely that it is permanent. They recommend to have 4 treatments per area, one per week. The machine has 2 hand-pieces, one for deep penetration and the other for shallow treatment. For example, on the underarms, the first hand-piece is applied for 6 minutes and the second for 4 minutes. So 10 minutes total per underarm. The cost is USD450 per area for the 4 treatments. I elected to treat the 3 areas that bother me most, that is the hands, feet and underarms. So the total cost is 3*450=1350. I think the cost is similar in Germany but much higher in the UK and US.
I have made 2 treatments until now, and tomorrow will be my third. There's no need for any preparation or pain relief medication during or after the treatment. The hand-piece cools the skin surface to numb it a bit. You generally only feel a bit of warmth during the treatment, however sometimes it gets a bit unbearable. I can't say for sure that there's an improvement in any of the areas up until now. I have read the research paper that the company have published (only for underarms) and it says that most people will feel a significant difference after the 3rd and 4th treatment, and that the reduction will continue for about a month after the last treatment. So hopefully it will be the same for me.
I will be sharing with you my experience with the rest of the treatment.
