Born Out of A Garage: Dermadry's Beginnings

Excessive sweating is a medical condition known as hyperhidrosis. Despite this condition affecting over 365 million people worldwide (approximately 5% of the global population). In the proper context, such as following physical activity or in the gym, sweat is an indicator of achievement and serves as proof. However, for those who suffer from hyperhidrosis, the sweating doesn’t stop outside the gym. The effects of excessive sweating are wide ranging and can negatively impact everything from mental health, to social life and personal style.

Truth is, sweating remains a generally taboo topic, and one that is often not taken seriously, despite those living with hyperhidrosis reporting significantly higher rates of anxiety and depression than the general public. From job interviews, to first dates, to simply trying to go about your day in comfort, excessive sweating takes its toll on every facet of daily life and personal and professional relationships.

Primary hyperhidrosis has no known cause and those with the condition sweat 4-5 times more than the average person, anytime, anywhere, regardless of temperature, physical activity, or any other known factor that is known to trigger a sweating response.

Antiperspirants are generally not enough to treat the condition, and other treatments such as injections, lasers, and surgeries are expensive, risky, and not suitable for many. Iontophoresis is another treatment option that had untapped potential—that is until Dermadry was born.

Who is Dermadry?

One of Dermadry’s co-founders had suffered from hyperhidrosis his entire life, but the condition began to take its toll during adolescence, once it started affecting his dating life.

After dealing with the condition privately for many years, he finally opened up to a couple of his closest friends about hyperhidrosis and his inability to find adequate treatment. His friends not only offered their encouragement, but joined to find a solution. What began as a simple search to find a solution for a personal problem quickly became a mission to improve the lives of millions around the globe.

Their goal was to create an affordable, efficient, and practical solution. After conducting extensive research, they concluded that iontophoresis was the treatment of choice and had exceptional untapped potential. That’s when Dermadry was born.

What began as experimentation in a cramped basement space led to Dermadry becoming the leaders in iontophoresis technology with their FDA cleared and CE marked home-use device. Their mission remains to raise awareness of hyperhidrosis and lead the way in developing and promoting iontophoresis technology worldwide.
