WORTH IT$1,500
So today April 15, 2013. I had my procedure done. I went at 1 and was done by 2... I'm not sure if I'm at 50-90%...the procedure went smooth and the only uncomfortable part was the shots. I got 45 shots in each arm, after the 20th shot the little bee stings went away. Stephanie made me feel really comfortable.. I hope this was worth it... I feel little pain and I have small chestnuts under my arm pits.

So it's been 3 days since my procedure and I haven't seen any signs of sweat...I'm in no type of pain, almost to the point I woke up to go work out, then I realized I had my treatments 3 days ago... I do look forward to my 2nd treatment in 3 to 4 months to make sure I'll be dry for a while...yaaaayyy. Oan my swollen arm pits have deflated greatly. I'm on my way shopping ttyl

Wow that is crazy that you had curable lung cancer and the way they found it. I am glad you are ok now. I am going for my second procedure in 2 days. Right now I would say that I personally have about 40-50% sweating reduction (not too great) so I am really hoping this second procedure does it for me.
I have still some moistness but it's way less then before...hopefully on my next treatment I be ay 95% . I'm at about 70% now... I pray your last treatment do it for your satisfaction. Please keep us updated

Plz can someone tell me if it work on smell too,, I'm not sweating too much but sorry it smell I wanna do something help me

Suzy3310, another community member I'mproudofmyaccent, asked this Q&A that might be helpful to you:

Miradry for Severe Bromhidrosis?

 

It totally helped me with smell. I am done with both treatments and I don't have hardly ANY smell even if I wear no deodorant for a day or two. I am extremely happy with my results.
How bout the sweating
I have almost no sweating. I would say, at this point, that my sweating is reduction has increased to about 90-95%. It has been extremely hot and humid in the midwest lately and even on those hottest days when I touch my armpit there is literally no sweating. I am loving this!
Hi Suzy3310, I suffered from HH and severe bromhidrosis and had 2 miraDry procedures done. The first treatment took away the smell 100% and most of the sweating. The procedure eradicates the sweat glands, and the "smelly" glands are located in the same area as the "sweat" glands. Having suffered from HH and smell myself, I know how uncomfortable you must feel and I would highly recommend the miraDry procedure. Good luck to you and keep us all posted : )
Yes Suzy3310 it helps with smell.... my sweating actually came back ughhh but the smell has not. My PA did earn me that it may come back and by me being African American I may need 3 treat ments since our skin is thicker. Hopefully after the 2nd treatment I'll be satisfied

Oh my gosh, what a frightening experience it must have been to be told you have lung cancer! Thank goodness they found it, and even more so that it was treatable!!

I'm so glad you will get to try MiraDry and I will be hoping it goes wonderfully for you. Looking forward to your updates!!
