How to Use
Setup for Dermadry Underarms
• Thoroughly clean skin before starting a treatment. Remove any creams, deodorants, antiperspirants and cosmetics from the target areas.
• Avoid sudden movements during treatment. These can cause current fluctuations and may lead to minor electric shocks.
Watch a video of the setup here:
1. Connect a cable to each underarm electrode.
2. Soak each pocket with tap water. The pockets must be completely wet to ensure the current is
spread evenly over the targeted skin of the underarms. Use water between room temperature and
warm (20-40 °C / 70-105 °F) according to user comfort.
3. Insert an underarm electrode in each pocket ensuring it is covered by the pocket in its entirety. If skin comes into contact with the electrode during the treatment, redness or erythema to the
exposed skin could ensue.
Note: If pockets become dry during treatment, tap water can be used to remoisten them. Ensure that the treatment is paused during this process. The treatment will remain paused for two minutes only. If the underarm electrodes are not placed back, the treatment will terminate automatically. The device will then switch to ‘Settings’ mode.
If you feel unpleasant tingling, electric shocks or burning sensations, stop the treatment and make sure the underarm electrodes are sufficiently moist. Lower the treatment current level if necessary.
4. Plug the other cable end into the connectors on the back panel of the controller. The device is designed to automatically alternate the current’s polarity during treatment without the need to manually reverse the cables. There is no difference between plugging the right or left electrode into the right or left connector on the back panel of the controller.
Note: Make sure connectors are fully plugged into the electrodes to prevent unstable connections. This may cause current fluctuations and minor electric shocks during treatment.

Setup for Dermadry Hands & Feet
• Before starting treatment, remove any jewelry from the target areas to avoid risk of electrical burns, redness or irritation.
• Thoroughly clean skin before starting a treatment. Remove any creams, deodorants, antiperspirants and cosmetics from the target areas.
Watch a video of the setup here:
1. Separate the case into two trays and place the trays on a flat, firm surface (e.g. table for hands, floor for feet) in order to avoid water spillage.
Place both trays side by side on a low table if you intend to treat hands. Place both trays side by side on the floor if you intend to treat feet.
2. Place a hand and foot electrode into each tray.
3. Cover each electrode with a towel.
Note: The case can be reassembled by reversing the steps when device is ready to be stored.
4. Connect a cable to each electrode while plugging the other cable end into the connectors on the back panel of the controller.
The device is designed to automatically alternate the current’s polarity during treatment without the need to manually reverse the cables. No difference is made between plugging the right or left electrode into the right or left connector on the back panel of the controller.
Note: Make sure cables are fully plugged into the electrodes to prevent unstable connections. This may cause current fluctuations and minor electric shocks during treatment.
5. Carefully fill both treatment trays with enough tap water, up to a maximum of 500 ml (17 fl. oz.) per tray.
Ensure that the entire skin surface intended for treatment is in contact with water. Use water between room temperature and warm (20-40 °C / 70-105 °F) according to user comfort.

Cleaning Procedure
The device is intended only for single-patient use in home therapy.
The device should be cleaned per the following steps after each treatment and also more extensively after every 5 treatments (or earlier as needed) as follows:
General before cleaning step
Cautions:
- Clean hands or wear gloves before installing and uninstalling the device.
- Always use a soft cloth for cleaning.
- Always use warm water at 140°- 195°F (60°- 90°C) for cleaning and rinsing.
- Before cleaning, ensure the device is turned off and all the cables are disconnected from the controller.
Cleaning steps after each treatment
- Thoroughly wash out the Towels or Underarm Pockets with clean warm water (do not add detergents or cleaning agents).
- Rigorously squeeze-dry the Towels or Underarm Pockets toremove excess moisture.
- Let the Towels or Underarm Pockets air-dry
NOTE: Do not store in a closed container or case until completely dry.
- Dry the electrodes with a soft cloth. To prevent calcium deposits, ensure to remove any moisture from the treatment electrodes after each treatment.
- Dry the case with a soft cloth and let it air-dry
NOTE: Do not close the case to allow it to dry
Cleaning steps after every 5 treatments (or earlier as needed)
Controller, Case and Electrodes:
- Wipe with moist cloth.
- For best results first dampen the cloth with a mild regular detergent solution (e.g. Dawn -mix 5 ml per 4 liters of wateror another equivalent detergent and concentration). Refer to the detergent’s label for its specific instructions for use.
Controller
- Completely and vigorously rinse out the cloth until the water is clear, remove excess water from the cloth until slightly dampened and wipe off the controller again to remove any residual detergent solution.
- Let them air dry.
Electrodes and Case :
- Rinse clear with running water for 30 seconds ensuring all surfaces and corners are rinsed, and then repeat this step again. Then wipe dry with a dry cloth.
- Let them air dry.
Towels and Underarm Pockets:
- Hand or machine wash with water and a mild regular detergent solution (Dawn -mix 5 ml per 4 liters of water- or another equivalent detergent and concentration).
- Rinse thoroughly under running water and rigorously squeeze out water.
- Let them air dry.
When will I See Results?
Each case is different and depends on your level of hyperhidrosis. The following treatment schedule gives a good indication of how many treatments you'll need to do before seeing results.
LEVEL I mild hyperhidrosis
LEVEL II moderate hyperhidrosis
LEVEL III severe hyperhidrosis
Using a higher (but still comfortable) current will help you attain results faster. Treatment effectiveness can also vary from one individual to another.
