How does miraDry® treatment work?

miraDry® treatment is non-invasive as it doesn’t involve any form of surgery. The treatment is performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you will go home after treatment. The procedure involves removal of sweat glands under the arms with the use of controlled electromagnetic energy known as microwave energy. After treatment, sweat glands do not grow back and are hence disabled permanently. The treatment lasts for about an hour. To get the best results out of miraDry® treatment, you will need at least two treatments staged 3 months apart.

When to contact a medical professional

Contact your health care provider if sweating occurs with:

• Chest pain
• Fever
• Rapid, pounding heartbeat
• Shortness of breath
• Weight loss

These symptoms may indicate a problem, such as overactive thyroid or an infection.

Also call your health care provider if:

• You sweat a lot or sweating lasts for a long time or cannot be explained.
• Sweating occurs with or is followed by chest pain or pressure.

• You lose weight from sweating or often sweat during sleep.

Recovery

Immediately after receiving miraDry® treatment, you will experience some mild pain under your arms. Pain medication might be recommended to relieve the discomfort. Ice may also help reduce swelling and soreness in the first few weeks. You will notice significant sweat reduction under your arms on the first day of receiving treatment. The underarm treatment has no downtime and you can resume work immediately. You however need to wait for some weeks before resuming your normal exercise routine. After one year following treatment, sweating under your arms will have significantly disappeared. Follow-up visits are still important until your doctor confirms that your treated area and general health are not exposed to any health risk.

Cost
