The miraDry treatment has generated significant interest among patients suffering from excessive underarm sweating. But beyond social media and testimonials, what do medical studies actually reveal?
Overall, scientific publications tend to be quite positive. Studies frequently indicate:
a significant reduction in sweating,
an improvement in quality of life,
a decrease in odour,
and a high level of patient satisfaction.
The principle behind miraDry® involves the use of microwaves targeting the sweat glands under the arms. Given that these glands regenerate slowly, results can be long-lasting after one or two sessions, depending on individual cases.
The side effects reported in studies are most often temporary:
swelling,
redness,
sensitivity,
temporary numbness.
The miraDry® currently represents an interesting alternative to more invasive hyperhidrosis treatments, with the advantage of being non-surgical.
For those who are more curious, you will find below several studies and publications that allow for a deeper exploration of the scientific data.
