1. What is SOKY Rx, and how does it work?
SOKY Rx is a wearable treatment system specifically designed for individuals with hyperhidrosis. It combines iontophoresis, a proven treatment for hyperhidrosis, with a user-friendly, portable design that lets you manage symptoms anywhere. The system uses a conductive solution and embedded electrodes to deliver gentle electrical currents, helping to reduce excessive sweating on your hands or feet. This process is non-invasive, easy to use, and doesn’t require bulky equipment, unlike traditional iontophoresis devices.
2. How is SOKY Rx different from other hyperhidrosis treatments?
Traditional treatments for hyperhidrosis, like prescription antiperspirants or oral medications, often come with side effects or limited effectiveness. Conventional iontophoresis devices are effective but tend to be cumbersome, requiring large tubs and a stationary setup. SOKY Rx is designed to be portable and wearable, allowing you to use it conveniently without the usual setup. This makes SOKY Rx ideal for people looking for flexibility and a device that seamlessly integrates into their routine.
3. Who is the Founding Community, and what are the benefits of joining?
The Founding Community is a group of early supporters who want to help shape the future of SOKY Rx and be among the first to access it. As a founding member, you’ll receive insider updates on product development, early access to new features, and exclusive benefits like discounts, special edition products, and the opportunity to participate in co-development feedback sessions. It’s a unique chance to join us on this journey, contribute your insights, and help us make SOKY Rx even better.
4. What makes the SOKY Rx Co-Development Program unique?
The SOKY Rx Co-Development Program invites founding members to directly influence the final stages of our product’s development. Through interviews, surveys, and feedback sessions, you’ll have a voice in aspects like design and functionality. This program is about more than just early access—it’s about building a solution together that truly meets the needs of people with hyperhidrosis. Participants in the program will also be recognized as collaborators, helping to refine and optimize the product before it launches to the general public.
5. How effective is SOKY Rx for treating hyperhidrosis?
SOKY Rx is built on the same principles as traditional iontophoresis, which has been clinically proven to reduce symptoms of hyperhidrosis in many users. While individual results may vary, we’re confident in the technology’s ability to offer relief from excessive sweating. However, SOKY Rx is currently offered as part of a co-development and beta testing program, so we do not make medical claims or guarantees. By joining, you’ll be among the first to help refine this treatment for maximum effectiveness.
6. Is SOKY Rx safe to use?
Yes, SOKY Rx is designed with safety in mind. Iontophoresis is a well-established treatment for hyperhidrosis, and we’ve engineered SOKY Rx to deliver safe, controlled currents through a secure and comfortable wearable design. As with any wearable device, we recommend following usage guidelines and consulting with a healthcare professional if you have any specific medical conditions or concerns.
7. When will I receive my SOKY Rx device if I join the Founding Community?
We’re currently targeting a launch date in mid-2024, with early access units shipped to Founding Community members first. As a Founding Community member, you’ll be updated regularly on our production timeline and be among the first to receive your device. Shipping dates may vary slightly depending on final product refinements, so we appreciate your patience as we work to deliver the best version of SOKY Rx.
8. Can SOKY Rx be used on other parts of the body besides hands and feet?
Right now, SOKY Rx is specifically designed for use on hands and feet, where hyperhidrosis is most common. We’re focusing on perfecting these primary applications, but depending on feedback from the Founding Community, we may explore expanding our product line to address other areas in the future.
9. How do I set up and use the SOKY Rx device?
SOKY Rx is designed for simplicity. Each device comes with an easy-to-follow setup guide. Generally, you’ll add a conductive solution to the device, secure it on your hands or feet, and start a session using the connected control unit. Sessions are usually brief and can be done from the comfort of your home or even on the go, depending on your preference.
10. Can I return SOKY Rx if it doesn’t work for me?
As a part of the Founding Community and Co-Development Program, you’ll be involved in a testing and feedback process. We do not currently offer traditional returns or refunds, as this is a pre-launch and collaborative phase of our product development. However, we’re committed to working closely with you to address any issues or provide assistance throughout your experience with SOKY Rx.
11. How long does each SOKY Rx session take?
Typical sessions with SOKY Rx last around 15-20 minutes, depending on your treatment plan and comfort level. Our goal is to make each session quick and effective so you can incorporate it into your routine without disruption.
12. Does SOKY Rx require additional purchases or consumables?
SOKY Rx operates using a conductive solution, which is essential for each session. We’ll offer easy access to compatible solutions through our store. As part of the Founding Community, you may also have early access to bulk options and subscription models to make reordering convenient.
13. How do I care for and clean my SOKY Rx device?
SOKY Rx is designed to be durable and easy to maintain. After each session, you can wipe down the device with a damp cloth or disinfectant wipes (following the care instructions provided). Regular maintenance will ensure that SOKY Rx remains effective and long-lasting.
14. Will SOKY Rx be covered by insurance or qualify for HSA/FSA reimbursement?
Currently, SOKY Rx is part of a co-development program and does not make medical claims, so insurance coverage is not available. However, once we finalize the product and begin full distribution, we’ll explore potential options for reimbursement through HSA or FSA, depending on feedback from our users and healthcare providers.
