I sweat excessively from my arm pits, hands, feet and butt! Is Miradry only for the armpits?

Miradry is an excellent option for the armpits. I have co-authored a book on hyperhidrosis and am aware of several research studies evaluating options for non axillary use. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Hello, here are some treatments you can use. There are a variety of techniques to decrease sweating:

Botox- Botox is helpful in that it can decrease the production of sweat but not odor.  It typically lasts about 6 months in the under arm area.
Miradry-  Miradry uses microwave energy to destroy apocrine and eccrine glands.  It is better at eccrine gland destruction than apocrine and is currently only used on the underarm area.
RF needling- Can be used anywhere on the body and can destroy both apocrine and eccrine glands.  Has become the procedure of choice in my practice for hyperhidrosis due to its effectiveness.
Nerve ablation-Not commonly performed anymore as side effects are often worse than treatment and effectiveness is often limited.
Oral medications- Too many side effects to be effective.
Topical medications- Works by blocking glands.  Many patients state how not effective mechanism.

The FDA has approved MiraDry only for the underarms. There's a rumor that one day there will be other areas including the hands and feet. One treatment of MiraDry in the underarm area removes 70% of the hair regardless of color and about 75 - 80% of the sweat and smell from the underarms. Most patients are happy with just one treatment.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
