Treatment of underarm sweating and axillary hyperhidrosis with Miradry and Retrograde Suction Curettage
MiraDry is a new technique that is useful for underarm and axillary hyperhidrosis. I have used the Retrograde Suction Curettage treatment for the same condition for many years and have found it useful for even the most resistant cases. MiraDry will require one to two treatments whereas the Retrograde Suction Curettage may only need one definitive procedure. Both procedures are effective treatments for underarm sweating.

MiraDry treatments
MiraDry treatments - 1 or 2 depending on the level of treatment and in my experience, one in 150 patients may need a third treatment. A thrid treatment is necessary in patients who seek complete dryness.
Level 5 treatments are most effective and are very safe to administer.

MiraDry - optimal results with 2 treatments
You will notice a reduction in sweating after the first treatment. However, it takes two treatments to get optimal results (on average, > 80% reduction, with some patients achieving > 90% reduction).
