Can Miradry be causing hair loss from scalp? (photo)

MiraDry uses microwave technology.  It is not radiation.  It will not cause you to lose your scalp hair.

Miradry can contribute to hair loss in the armpit, which helps hyperhidrosis in general.  Distant hairloss is likely not related. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACS

Loss of hair in the scalp can arise for many reasons.  Stress is also a contributing factor.  However the chance of miraDry causing a radiation-induced direct trauma to the scalp is extremely low.  First, the device produces microwave energy. This energy is delivered in a very local fashion beneath the skin of the armpits. Unless the device was used off label to treat scalp sweating, I do not believe that your hair loss is directly as a result of miraDry.  Hairloss in the armpit region is possible.  I would go seek the counsel of a hair loss specialist to determine what might be the reason for your hair loss on your scalp. 

miraDry can cause hair loss in the underarms which if it occurs, most patients like. miraDry does not cause distant hair loss in other parts of the body. Read the ebook I have written about miraDry for free on the link below. 

miraDry uses electromagnetic energy focused to the underarms only, and NOT radiation. You may experience hair loss in the areas treated because the hair follicle is near the sweat glands, but not on your scalp.Kind regardsDr Davin LimDermatologistBrisbane, Australia
