What is Miradry?

FDA Approved

miraDry is the only FDA approved treatment for the PERMANENT reduction of sweat, odor, and hair from the underarms. This means if you have hyperhydrosis (or you just sweat more than you would like to), if you worry about odor, or if you are concerned about harsh chemicals and metals in deodorant miraDry is for you. 

Immediate

No waiting for results. miraDry works immediately. You will leave your appointment free of sweat and odor.

Effective

miraDry has a 90% ‘Worth It’ rating from realself.com and patients are raving about it. Most patients are satisfied with their results after only one treatment.

FAQ

  • How does miraDry work?

    miraDry uses thermal energy to create heat to safely eliminate sweat and odor glands.

  • Don’t I need sweat glands?

    Yes, you do! But, only about 2% of your sweat glands are in your underarm area. Even with the destruction of these glands, you still have more than enough. And, no need to worry, you will not sweat more in other areas after miraDry.

  • What are the results I can expect?

    miraDry results are immediate and once your sweat and odor glands are eliminated, they are gone permanently. miraDry is clinically proven to have an average of 82% sweat reduction and 89% odor reduction. For reference, deodorant offers approximately a 20% reduction.

  • How many treatments are needed?

    Most patients require only 1 treatment though a second treatment can be performed if additional results are desired. Should a second treatment be desired the fee will be at a 50% reduced rate.

  • Are there side effects or down time?

    Most patients describe the treatment as painless. As the numbing medication wears off, you are likely to experience some soreness and/or swelling in your underarm area. This will improve within 48 hours and resolve within a few weeks. We recommend icing the area for the first 48 hours. You should not need to miss any work after the miraDry procedure.

  • Is miraDry safe?

    Yes! miraDry has been fully cleared by the FDA and has been used in over 140,000 treatments worldwide with an excellent safety record.

  • Do I need to come in for a consultation?

    Not typically. While you are always welcome to come to the office for an in person consultation, most of the time a full consultation can be accomplished over the phone.  We are happy to save you time and gas money if that is easier for you.
