Best Answer

Iontophoresis is probably one of the most effective treatments of sweaty palms.

It is highly recommended if topical applications or medications have not worked for you but you do not want to go as far as surgery.

Iontophoresis uses water to conduct a mild electrical current through the skin's surface. It's not entirely understood how or why iontophoresis works, but it's believed that the electric current and mineral particles in the water work together to microscopically thicken the outer layer of the skin, which blocks the flow of sweat to the skin's surface. Once this sweat output is blocked or interrupted, sweat production on the palms and soles is, often suddenly and dramatically, "turned off".

Is a kidney dialysis machine a permanent cure for kidney failure?

It is an effective method to use, but it can not be considered a cure as such. I would consider it a tool helping people, but as a cure, one would need to either repair kidneys or have them replaced. A machine can of course help the kidneys so that they can have a rest for a while and maybe improve that way. Regards.

Is there a cream to cure palmer hyperhidrosis?

Yes, you can buy Antihydral and it really works. Good Luck Drysol Dab On Antiperspirant that contains 20% aluminum chloride hexahydrate may help. For palmer hyperhidrosis, it would be better if you try iontophoresis, which treat excessive hands sweating by passing low intensity electric current through the skin of the hands. This method is recommended by the International Hyperhidrosis Society.
