  • Targets Sweat & Odor Glands Directly
  • Permanent Results: Sweat glands do not regenerate.
  • FDA-Approved Technology
  • No Surgery or Incisions
  • Performed in a Single Outpatient Session


2. Common miraDry Questions & Answers

  • Is miraDry permanent?
    Yes. Once sweat glands are destroyed, they do not grow back.
  • How many sessions are needed?
    Most patients need     1 session. Severe cases may benefit from 2 sessions.
  • Does it completely stop sweating?
    It typically reduces sweating by     80–90%, not 100%.
  • Is the treatment painful?
    Local anesthesia is used. Patients may feel pressure or warmth, but pain is minimal.
