Excessive sweating, underarm odor, and the embarrassment that comes with it can affect your quality of life. Whether it’s choosing clothes based on how much you’ll sweat or constantly worrying about body odor, it can be frustrating. But with miraDry®, you can finally take control and stop sweating the small stuff. This FDA-approved treatment offers a permanent solution to underarm sweat and odor, allowing you to embrace every moment with confidence.

What Is MiraDry®?

MiraDry® is a non-invasive, permanent treatment designed to eliminate underarm sweat and odor. It uses advanced thermal technology to target and destroy the sweat and odor glands in your underarm area. After just one treatment, you can expect a significant reduction in sweat and odor, giving you the freedom to live your life without constantly worrying about perspiration stains or odor.

Unlike traditional methods such as antiperspirants or Botox injections, MiraDry® offers a long-term solution that doesn’t require constant maintenance. Once the sweat and odor glands are destroyed, they do not regenerate, meaning the results are permanent.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for MiraDry®?

If you struggle with excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) or constantly feel self-conscious about underarm odor, MiraDry® might be the right solution for you. This treatment is ideal for anyone who:

  • Showers frequently to control body odor
  • Chooses clothing based on how sweat will show through
  • Feels socially impacted by excessive underarm perspiration

MiraDry® is specifically designed for those who experience underarm hyperhidrosis, providing a targeted, permanent solution.

Understanding Hyperhidrosis: More Than Just Sweat

Hyperhidrosis is the medical term for excessive sweating, often occurring in the underarms. While the body has millions of sweat glands, most of which regulate body temperature, the underarm area has both sweat and odor glands. These apocrine glands produce a thicker fluid that, when mixed with bacteria, can lead to unpleasant odors. Hyperhidrosis can be embarrassing and challenging to manage, especially for those with more severe cases.

MiraDry® works by targeting both sweat and odor glands, permanently reducing their activity. After treatment, you won’t just notice less sweat; you’ll experience a reduction in odor as well, allowing you to feel fresh all day long.

The miraDry® Procedure: Safe, Quick, and Effective

The MiraDry® procedure typically takes about one hour to complete and is performed with a local anesthetic to ensure comfort. During the treatment, Dr. Ariel Ostad uses a handheld device that applies controlled thermal energy to the underarm area. This energy heats and destroys the sweat and odor glands without damaging any surrounding skin or tissues.

After the treatment, patients can resume most activities, but it’s important to follow post-procedure care instructions to ensure optimal results. You may experience some minor swelling, tenderness, or numbness, but these side effects usually resolve within a few days.

Recovery and Aftercare: Minimal Downtime

One of the major advantages of MiraDry® is its minimal downtime. Unlike other treatments that require weeks of recovery, most patients can return to their normal routine within a few days. However, there are a few aftercare guidelines to ensure the best results:

  • Keep the treated area clean by using gentle liquid soap twice a day.
  • Avoid vigorous physical activity for several days.
  • Apply ice or take ibuprofen to manage swelling or discomfort.

While some patients experience mild numbness or tenderness, these side effects typically subside in a short period.

Results You Can Count On

MiraDry® offers permanent results. After just one session, patients can see significant improvement, but depending on the severity of their condition, some may opt for a second session to achieve maximum results. Typically, patients experience:

  • 82% permanent sweat reduction.
  • 89% permanent odor reduction

With MiraDry®, you can finally say goodbye to the constant worry of underarm sweat and odor. The treatment provides long-lasting results, giving you confidence and freedom in your day-to-day activities.
