The miraDry Procedure
The miraDry Procedure provides a lasting, non-invasive solution for excessive underarm sweat.
For millions of Americans, excessive underarm sweating (the medical term is axillary hyperhidrosis) is a daily struggle that can interfere with nearly every aspect of life. Whether it’s anxiety at work, embarrassment in relationships and social settings, or frustration over constantly ruining clothes, excessive sweating can have devastating effects on a person’s emotional well-being and self-image.
Now, there is a lasting solution that can make embarrassing sweat a thing of the past.
The miraDry Procedure does not involve surgical incisions or cuts. The procedure non-invasively delivers precisely controlled electromagnetic energy to the region where the sweat glands reside, and eliminates the sweat glands. Because the sweat glands do not regenerate after treatment, you should see a dramatic and lasting reduction of underarm sweat.
The outpatient procedure is performed in the physician's office. The clinician customizes treatment for each underarm area with multiple placements of the miraDry Handpiece, delivering electromagnetic energy to the underarm.
Two procedures are typically recommended 3 months apart to maximize the results and duration. Each procedure appointment will generally last about an hour.
There is minimal to no downtime following the procedure. You should be able to return to normal activities or work right after the procedure, and you can typically resume exercise within several days. Localized soreness or swelling is normal, and typically clears within a few weeks. Some patients have short-term altered sensation in the skin of their underarms or upper arms, which gradually disappears.
If embarrassing underarm outbreaks, stained clothing and constant antiperspirant application are a part of your life, then you may be a good candidate for the miraDry Procedure.
With the miraDry Procedure you can get on with your life and leave the burden of underarm sweating behind!
