MiraDry - Reduce Excessive Sweating




Excessive sweating is a very common problem. In fact, 1 in 5 Americans says they sweat excessively. If you suffer from excessive sweating, a solution is available. MiraDry® is a groundbreaking procedure that eliminates sweat at the source by destroying sweat glands in the armpits. As a simple, hour-long, outpatient procedure, MiraDry® can give you permanent freedom from excessive underarm sweat. After the procedure, patients report a dramatic improvement in their appearance, self-esteem, and quality of life. 

Effective, Lasting Relief: The Benefits of MiraDry®

MiraDry® is an FDA-approved, clinically proven system for dramatically reducing the volume and occurrence of underarm sweat. As a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure, MiraDry® uses electromagnetic technology to penetrate the outer layers of the skin and reach the sweat glands underneath. By heating the sweat glands, MiraDry® effectively destroys their function, helping patients get permanent relief from excessive sweating.

A single appointment lasts only an hour. Most of Dr. Karamanoukian's patients only need one treatment.  Some may receive two treatments, three months apart, for optimal results.

While there are other solutions for excessive sweating, MiraDry® offers the most advantages. Unlike surgical solutions for excessive sweating, MiraDry® does not penetrate the outer layer of skin, meaning patients need no recovery period and no downtime once they leave our office. Other solutions, such as antiperspirants, only disable the sweat glands temporarily and require constant re-application. All in all, patients find that MiraDry® offers the best results with the fewest side effects, placing it at the forefront of sweat elimination procedures and making it one of the best methods to stop excessive underarm sweating.
MiraDry® can effectively help patients with the following issues:
  • Embarrassment from excessive underarm sweat
  • Underarm sweat that interferes with routine activities
  • Frequent application of antiperspirant
  • Frequent clothing changes due to excessive sweating in the underarms
  • Constant attention on wearing clothes that won’t show sweat easily
  • General frustration over the volume of underarm sweat

How MiraDry® Works

For the most part, sweat glands reside within the fatty layer of skin. By using electromagnetic waves, MiraDry penetrates the outer dermal layers, targeting this fatty layer underneath. MiraDry uses a special cooling system that ensures all skin above the fatty layer is unaffected by electromagnetic energy. In this way, MiraDry targets the sweat glands while leaving the surrounding tissue undamaged.
