I heard Botox requires multiple sessions and that miraDry works about 80% of the time and may also require additional treatments. Thanks!
Answer: Treatment Options for Hyperhidrosis Great Question! Both Botox and MiraDry are effective treatments for underarm sweat and odor. Botox is a TEMPORARY treatment that will need to be repeated over time, which can be costly in the long run. Miradry, is a PERMANENT option. MiraDry uses heat energy to target and destroy the sweat and odor glands in your underarm. Once those glands are destroyed they do not grow back. The majority of patients see a 75-82% reduction in sweat and odor after one treatment. Those who have severe hyperhidrosis may need additional treatments. In the long-term, MiraDry is more cost-effective. Best regards, Dr. Aldo :-)

Answer: MiraDry is permanent, unlike Botox MiraDry is permanent but can be performed without any problem after Botox or even while the effect from Botox is still in place. Botox works for only 6-8 months and then needs to be repeated.

Answer: Botox v. miraDry miraDry gives approximately 80% reduction of sweat in the the treated area. Botox can also be done to reduce the excess perspiration that isn't achieved after miraDry. The difference is the results from miraDry are permanent and Botox lasts approximately 6months. There is no contraindications with either treatments or combining the two. Hope this helps.

Answer: Miradry and Botox Both these procedures are very effective for the treatment of underarm sweat and odor. Botox can last up to 6 months. It is NOT permanent so twice a year treatments that are required yearly can be costly over time. Miradry, on the other hand is permanent. 80% people require 1 treatment. The results are seen at one week and the new baseline reduction is seen at 6 weeks. From a cost effective standpoint, MIRADRY is far superior.Best wishes,Dr. Ravi Somayazula
