My experience with Dr. Gentry was FANTASTIC! The procedure did not hurt & my arm pits had minimal bruising afterwards. Dr. Gentry made sure I was numb & did not experience any discomfort or pain during & after the procedure. I now have very little hair under my arms & no longer sweat! I also have not had to wear deodorant since I got miraDry. I would highly recommend this procedure, the results are well worth the money!
The worst part about this procedure was holding your arms up the entire time. It's hard to hold your arms up for almost 2 hours! I was scared to get all of the injections for the anesthesics to numb my under arms, but only around 4/30 hurt & they were bearable. The actual procedure wasn't bad at all & was honestly just time consuming. There were a few times I felt small pain but as soon as I felt something weird Dr. Gentry turned the machine to a cooling mode & the pain immediately went away. My arms were fat for awhile after the procedure, which was expected since they were filled with fluids. I kept waiting for the pain to come like I had read about from other people's reviews, but it never did. I never experienced any stinging or fire feelings like I expected, nor did I have trouble sleeping. My bruising was very minimal compared to the pictures I saw of other people who had miraDry done to them. I have enjoyed not wearing deodorant and shaving under my arms everyday. If miraDry is something you are considering, Dr. Gentry will make sure you are happy with your experience & results! Also happy to answer any questions!
