MiraDry

What is miraDry?

miraDry is an FDA-cleared device that uses thermal energy to eliminate sweat glands in the underarm area to treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). The heat generated from the energy destroys the sweat glands, which do not grow back. Treatment with miraDry is considered permanent although multiple treatments may be required. Results can be appreciated immediately, and there is little to no downtime. Schedule a consultation with one of our providers to see how miraDry can help you manage your hyperhidrosis.

Faqs

While your body does need sweat glands to cool itself, your body has 2-4 million sweat glands – only about 2% are found in your underarms. Eliminating this 2% of sweat glands does not affect your body’s ability to cool itself. With miraDry, you will experience the many benefits of reducing sweat in the underarm area, but you will continue to sweat in other areas of your body.

 

miraDry uses thermal energy to create heat in the area where bothersome sweat and odor glands, as well as hair follicles reside and safely eliminates them.

 

You can expect immediate and lasting results.1 Once the miraDry treatment eliminates the sweat and odor glands, they’re gone for good. The treatment is clinically proven to have an average of 82% sweat reduction and 89% odor reduction.1,3 As with any aesthetic treatment, patient results and experiences may vary.

 

You can see results in as little as one treatment.1 However, as with any aesthetic treatment, your physician will determine the best protocol for your desired results.

 

An appointment will generally last about one hour. 

 

Most patients describe the procedure as painless with little to no downtime. Local anesthesia is administered to the underarms prior to the treatment for patient comfort. Most patients return to regular activity (like returning to work) immediately. Exercise is typically resumed within several days. You may experience swelling, numbness, bruising, and sensitivity in the underarm area for several days after treatment.
