What is miraDry?
miraDry is a safe, FDA-cleared, non-invasive, treatment to resolve hyperhidrosis. Using microwave technology, miraDry delivers heat waves as hot as 140 degrees F just below the skin surface, at the same time, a colling device prevents the upper layer of the skin from burning. The controlled delivery of energy turns off your sweat glands permanently. Your provider will begin the process by measuring your armpits and marking the treatment area. Lidocaine will be applied injected to numb the area. This will ensure you have a safe and comfortable treatment. Once the area is completely numb, the miraDry device is applied to destroy the sweat glands. The treatment should take about one hour. After the treatment you may experience soreness and swelling. This is normal and ice packs can help to reduce the swelling or discomfort. There is minimal downtime with this procedure. We recommend giving yourself a couple of days to recover before resuming any work out activities including swimming, running etc
