REATMENT OF HYPERHIDROSIS AT THE ARMPITS
Before the treatment clean the armpits with clear water, in order to remove any cosmetics
and so to avoid any irritations of the skin.
Do not switch off the unit during treatment.
Moisten the sponges together with the electrodes in a water bath
for about 30 seconds. Press the water from the sponges until
they do not drip (
do not wring them out
). The more water
remains in the sponges, the better the current will be directed to
the areas which has to be treated.
There is a danger of burns, if the sponges are too dry!
Attention, there is a danger of burns, if the metallic
electrodes are in direct contact with the skin.
Use the 2 electrode cables to connect the electrodes with the
positive and the negative pole of the unit.
Self-test
Maximum armpits 5mA
Values!
hands 15mA
feet 25mA
Switch on the unit while pushing down the turning knob.
Pay attention that the turning knob is on switch setting
(

).
The unit carries out a self-test. This action takes some seconds.

Adjust the required current intensity with the turning knob for the
treatment of the armpits of approx. 3 mA. A turn to right
increases the current intensity. A turn to left decreases it.

Complete the circuit. For this put one sponge electrode under
each armpit.
Attention! Because of the compression, water may leak from
the sponge electrodes. Put for example a towel underneath
to absorb the water.
For treatment of the armpits use the 2 optional sponge
electrodes with the sponges:
