    Update for me: Megan asked me to give an update, I thought I had posted one but I guess it didn't go through. It's been 6 months since I first had it done. Can still say it has been phenomenal. Really happy with the results. I don't think about it anymore and it's difficult to remember the years I had spent with the excessive underarm sweat. Everything is great. Armpits have healed up pretty well from the second treatment. I will say that there are still some marks on them and it seems like I don't have as much hair there as I used to which I can definitely live with and who knows, it may just take some time to grow back. It's hard to describe the residual markings but it is not bad at all. I could probably post a picture here soon if anyone was interested. And that may heal up completely in time as well. All in all, fantastic procedure and am 100% happy with the results and hope everyone who chooses to do it gets as good of results as I did.

    Sure. So far, so good. The tech told me this time that the reason there was some residual sweating after the first one after a bit was because the glands that werent destroyed were stunned/dormant and became active after a couple months but the 2nd treatment (which actually uses a higher and more agressive heat setting) is supposed to wipe out most of the rest of them. Time will tell, so I will update in a few months. Absolutely zero sweating right now. As far any marks and discomfort, you will definitely have both after each session. The first couple days after are the worst, armpits are severely swollen and numb. Nothing a little ice wont fix but its not great to look at for a few weeks. But before I had the 2nd one mine had returned to normal, so it will probably be back to normal in a month or so. No lasting marks, everything heals. The device uses suction to pull the skin right against it make sure it makes contact so thats what creates most of the swelling and marks, almost like a bunch of hickeys in your armpits. Mine are clearing up nicely though, the numbness is what lingers a little longer, at least for me but it was almost back to normal before I had the second session so I should be good in a few months. Any other questions, let me know..!

    Hmm, Im not sure. I honestly dont see this particular procedure ever being approved for anything other than underarms, unfortunately. Hopefully there will be something else in the future because I suffer from that a bit as well but I will say that after getting the underarm under control, the groin area has not been as bad. I think its a cycle where you get anxious and self conscious of the underarms that you start sweating everywhere else. At least in my case. But I will say that it has been better.

    For the most part, yes. I notice a bit more than I did after the first treatment but it is really nothing compared to what it was. Its mostly when I drink caffeine which I drink alot of unfortunately or when I get anxious but I still have yet to go in for the second treatment which is really supposed to get the maximum results, which Im actually going in for tomorrow, so I will post my results with that in a few weeks!

    Megan, it's going great. The results have stayed about more or less the same. The only time there is any sweat that would be noticeable to me is if I drink too much caffeine but even then it is not anything substantial. The results were excellent for me. Hard to imagine now what it felt like to sweat that much. I have my 2nd treatment in about a month, which should enhance the results Ive already gotten. I can give an update after I have that done.
