FAQs

WHAT IS THE MIRADRY® TREATMENT?

The miraDry® system is the only FDA-cleared treatment that can dramatically reduce underarm sweat by addressing the root cause of excessive sweat and its accompanying odor- not the symptoms.

DON’T I NEED SWEAT GLANDS?

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.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

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

WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?

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.1,4 As with any aesthetic treatment results, patient results and experience may vary.

IS THERE ANY PAIN OR DOWNTIME?
