Deodorant use after Miradry treatment?

You may not need the same amount of antiperspirant or deodorant as before. Find a suitable option that does not irritate your skin. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

The miraDry® system eliminates the underarm sweat glands, and the sweat glands don’t grow back after treatment. This results in a dramatic and lasting reduction of embarrassing underarm sweat. In a clinical study, patients experienced an average of 82% reduction in underarm sweat. You should notice a reduction in sweat immediately after a single miraDry® treatment. As with any medical procedure, results will vary by person. 80% of our patients need only one treatment. Secondary effects include underarm hair and odor reduction. Ask your physician if this procedure is right for you.  Toss the deodorant!
