Temporary bruising may occur after MiraDry.  This typically lasts 2 weeks.  You should probably show the doctor who performed your MiraDry treatment.

Juvederm Ultra Smile vs Juvederm Volbella for lips?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

Hi and thank you for your question.  

Juvederm Ultra and Volbella can both be used to plump up the lips.  I find that Juvederm Ultra helps to plump up the lip more than Volbella.  This does not mean that one product is better than the other; the choice on which product to use depends on how much fuller you want your lips to be.  Be sure to make a consultation with an expert injector.

Upper lip rolls under when I smile - how to help a gummy smile? (Photos)

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

Thanks for the photos.  A gummy smile can easily be corrected with a small amount of Botox or Dysport.  It typically lasts between 3 to 4 months.

miraDry - is this treatment effective if prior Botox injections haven't worn off yet?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

Botox can be used to treat underarm sweating but it wears off, typically in 3 to 6 months.  MiraDry will permanently reduce underarm sweating.   You do not have to wait for the Botox to wear off to do MiraDry treatment.

Can a nerve block be used instead of lidocaine injections to numb underarms before the miraDry procedure?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

The best way to numb the area for MiraDry is tumescent lidocaine.  Not only does it do a great job of numbing the entire area, but the excess saline/fluid used helps act like a cushion to protect deeper structures.  A nerve block is not recommended.

Where is the best and not costly place to get MiraDry in Dallas/Fort Worth area?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

MiraDry has a website where you can locate nearby offices for MiraDry treatment.  You should also find out who is performing the MiraDry treatment.  Currently in my office, I am doing all the MiraDry treatments.

I got miraDry treatment about a week ago, and am now looking for recommendations for underarm dryness after miraDry treatment.

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

MiraDry is an excellent device used to reduce underarm sweating.  For a couple of weeks after treatment with MiraDry there is some mild swelling that may relate to the symptoms you are feeling 1 week post treatment.  This sensation should improve within a few weeks to a month or two.  Be sure to speak to your treating physician about the side effects.  For now, you can apply a small amount of moisturizing cream such as CeraVe or Eucerin.

Can miraDry be used for excessive sweating in the groin area? Are there other treatment areas?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

MiraDry has been FDA cleared to treat sweating in the armpit area.  There are studies with a different handpiece to assess treatment of sweating in other areas of the body but this has not come out yet.  For now, Botox injections can be tried to help sweating in groin area.

Is the tumescent technique the protocol for Miradry?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)

I use tumescent lidocaine for MiraDry in my office, and it works very well for numbing up the area prior to treating with MiraDry.  It was also the recommended numbing protocol when I discussed this with Miramar Labs.
