My Question is Regarding Miradry. Odor is More my Problem than Sweat. Will This Procedure Help?

Sweating in the armpits is what causes the odor which can be uncomfortable, embarrassing, and make you feel self-conscious. Miradry is a non-invasive device that delivers precisely controlled electromagnetic energy to areas of increased sweating. We apply it to the sweat glands in your armpits. This energy destroys the sweat glands, which reduces armpit sweating and the associated odor. You do not need your armpit sweat glands to eliminate toxins.  The armpit sweat glands make up only a small fraction of all the sweat glands in your body (approximately 2%) and are expendable. 
If you would like to learn more about the procedure I recommend an in person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training.

miraDry is an excellent treatment for reducing armpit odor.  Most patients are delighted to discover that they no longer need to use deodorant.  This is helpful for reducing dry cleaning bills!

That said, since you are only sixteen, it is very possible that this stage of your life (being more sweaty and having more body odor) may be just a stage!

I have co-authored a book on Miradry. The treatment is FDA approved for hyperhidrosis but some patients see improvements in smell. Claims made that Miradry can treat bromohidrosis are off label. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Miradry eliminates the odor causing glands as well as the sweat glands.  It is your best and most affordable manner of fixing your problem!

Miradry is the best way to correct your problem. Excess sweat (hyperhydrosis), and smelly armpits (bromhydrosis) are caused by eccrine (sweat) and apocrine glands whose secretion is modified by bacteria causing a bad odor. In Japan, this is the major use of this technology. Miradry eliminates these glands permanently and solves both problems. You will never need to use deodorant again.

You seem like an excellent candidate for MiraDry.  The treatment targets sweat glands that not only significantly reduce sweat production, but also odor.  Two sessions spaced about 3 months apart have demonstrated a reduction of about 85 percent.  At this point in the clinical trials, these results appear permanent.  Best of luck!

Miradry is FDA approved for both odor and sweat reduction.  The real advance with this procedure is that it is minimally invasive with very little downtime and has approximately an 80-85% reduction with two treatments.  The results are permanent and unless a patient wants more reduction, third treatment, there is no need to repeat treatments.Surgical options are available but have significant downtime and risks and the neurotoxins like Botox are temporary requiring multiple treatments.

Thank you for your message! miraDry is an FDA cleared procedure to help reduce underarm sweat, odor, and hair in the area. Typically only one treatment is needed though multiple treatments can be performed as well. After the procedure you can have swelling and soreness, though this is usually manageable with ice and NSAID's. I would recommend a consultation with a provider in your area for further assessment! 

MiraDry is an in-office non-surgical treatment for permanent reduction of underarm sweating by over 80% in as little as one treatment. The procedure uses microwave technology to permanently kill the sweat glands and odor glands in the underarm. All patients notice a significant decrease in underarm body odor, where most no longer use deodorant. MiraDry is a treatment not just for excessive sweaters, but for anyone whose life is affected by underarm sweating and odor.
