Sweating is a natural body process, but for many people, it can be excessive, embarrassing, and difficult to manage. Whether it’s sweat patches on clothes, unpleasant odour, or the constant need for deodorants, underarm sweating can affect confidence and daily life. Thankfully, medical advancements have made it possible to address this issue permanently — and MiraDry is leading the way.
What is MiraDry?
MiraDry is a non-surgical, FDA-approved treatment designed to permanently reduce underarm sweat, odour, and hair. It works using microwave energy technology to target and destroy sweat and odour glands under the skin. Once these glands are eliminated, they do not grow back, meaning results are long-lasting and often permanent.
Unlike deodorants or antiperspirants that only offer temporary control, MiraDry addresses the root cause — the glands themselves — offering a life-changing solution for people struggling with primary axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating).
How Does MiraDry Work?
The MiraDry procedure uses a specialised handpiece that delivers controlled electromagnetic energy to the sweat glands beneath the skin. At the same time, a cooling system protects the outer layer of skin, ensuring safety and comfort.
-
Step 1: The underarm area is cleaned and numbed with local anaesthesia.
-
Step 2: The MiraDry device is placed against the skin, delivering precise energy to the targeted glands.
-
Step 3: The treated area is cooled to prevent discomfort and ensure minimal downtime.
The entire process typically takes about one hour and most patients resume their regular activities within 24 hours.
Benefits of MiraDry
-
Permanent Results: Once sweat glands are destroyed, they do not regenerate.
-
Odour Control: It eliminates odour glands, reducing underarm smell significantly.
-
Hair Reduction: Many patients also notice less underarm hair growth.
-
Non-Invasive: No cuts, stitches, or surgical risks.
-
Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime, with most people returning to work the next day.
Who is it For?
MiraDry is suitable for both men and women who experience:
-
Excessive sweating despite using deodorants
-
Underarm odour that impacts confidence
-
Clothing stains due to sweat
-
A desire to live deodorant-free
It’s also a great choice for those looking for a permanent, non-surgical alternative to sweat gland surgery or regular Botox injections.
Is it Safe?
Yes. MiraDry has been extensively tested and is FDA-cleared for underarm sweat reduction. The human body contains millions of sweat glands, and underarm glands make up only about 2% of them, so eliminating them does not interfere with the body’s ability to regulate temperature.
Life After MiraDry
Imagine wearing light-coloured clothes without worrying about sweat marks. Imagine not carrying deodorants everywhere you go. MiraDry offers that freedom — and with just one or two sessions, you could enjoy sweat-free, odour-free underarms for life.
